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.
- Eaves trays where insulation could block airflow
- Soffit, tile or ridge vents as specified
- A note of air leaks from the house that need sealing

Questions about loft ventilation in Callander
Is loft work in Callander 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.
Do you charge extra to travel to Callander?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Callander. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Callander?
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 extra vents make my house colder?
No. The vents ventilate the loft above the insulation, not the rooms below.
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.
