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.

Questions about loft ventilation in the Highlands and Islands
Which council covers my address in the Highlands and Islands?
Councils in the Highlands and Islands include Highland, Orkney Islands, Shetland Islands and Na h-Eileanan Siar. Your council matters for building control questions and some funding schemes.
Can you quote for several properties in the Highlands and Islands?
Yes. Landlords and agents can send a list of addresses and we will survey them in as few visits as we can.
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.
Will extra vents make my house colder?
No. The vents ventilate the loft above the insulation, not the rooms below.
