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

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 Leigh
How soon can you visit a home in Leigh?
We call you back to agree a time that suits you, and confirm the date in writing. Availability changes week to week, so we will give you the earliest slot we have.
Is loft work in Leigh 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.
Can you visit Leigh 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.
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.
Will extra vents make my house colder?
No. The vents ventilate the loft above the insulation, not the rooms below.
