What is loft ventilation?
Most pitched roofs are ventilated at the eaves, sometimes with high-level vents as well. Where there are no vents, we add soffit vents, tile or slate vents, or ridge vents, depending on the roof covering and the underlay. More about loft ventilation.
- A note of air leaks from the house that need sealing
- Soffit, tile or ridge vents as specified
- Eaves trays where insulation could block airflow

How much does loft ventilation cost in Swadlincote?
This work is not an energy-saving material for VAT, so it is standard-rated if VAT applies. Where it is done alongside insulation, the quote shows each part separately.
Building regulations in England
In England, a loft insulated across more than half its area should reach a U-value of 0.16 W/m²K. Insulation alone is not usually notified to building control. How the rules work across the UK.
Questions about loft ventilation in Swadlincote

Will I get a written quote for work in Swadlincote?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Does my loft need ventilation after insulation?
A cold loft needs a path for outside air, usually at the eaves. New insulation must not block it, which is why we fit eaves trays.
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.
