What is a loft condensation investigation?
We inspect the loft in daylight and by torch, measure moisture in the timbers, check the underlay, ventilation, insulation and the routes that let warm air in from the house, and look at the roof from outside. You get written findings with photos and a plain list of what we recommend, which may include work we do not offer. More about a loft condensation investigation.

Questions about a loft condensation investigation in Ripon
What do I need to do before you arrive in Ripon?
Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.
Do you take on jobs outside Ripon?
Yes. We also work in Harrogate and Thirsk and elsewhere in North Yorkshire.
Can a landlord in Ripon book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Is the investigation fee taken off the work?
The investigation is priced on its own so the advice is not tied to selling work. You decide what to do afterwards.
Is condensation in my loft normal?
A little on the coldest nights can be normal, especially with old felt. Dripping, wet insulation or mould are signs to investigate.
