What is loft ventilation?
Most pitched roofs are ventilated at the eaves, sometimes with high-level vents as well. Insulation pushed into the eaves can block that path, which is why we fit ventilation trays. More about loft ventilation.
- Soffit, tile or ridge vents as specified
- A note of air leaks from the house that need sealing
- Eaves trays where insulation could block airflow

Questions about loft ventilation in Penrith
Can you visit Penrith outside working hours?
Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Will I get a written quote for work in Penrith?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Is loft work in Penrith different from anywhere else?
The method is the same, but older terraces, cottages and newer estates each have their own quirks: lath ceilings, low pitches or trussed roofs. We plan for the loft we find.
My bathroom fan vents into the loft. Is that a problem?
Yes. It pumps warm, wet air straight into the coldest part of the house. The duct should run to outside through a vent tile, soffit or wall.
Will extra vents make my house colder?
No. The vents ventilate the loft above the insulation, not the rooms below.
