Questions about loft ventilation in Bishopbriggs
Can a landlord in Bishopbriggs book work for a tenanted house?

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.
Will I get a written quote for work in Bishopbriggs?
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.
