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.
- 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 Potters Bar

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.
