If your home in Preston feels colder than it should — or your energy bills keep rising — poor loft insulation might be the cause. Even if you had insulation installed years ago, it may no longer meet modern standards or could be damaged by damp, pests, or poor fitting.
At Weather Wise Solutions, we help homeowners identify loft insulation problems and install modern solutions, including radiant reflective barriers and PAM Ties-approved mineral wool.
5 Warning Signs Your Loft Insulation Is Underperforming
-
Cold bedrooms or draughts upstairs
-
Ice or snow melts quickly from your roof
-
High heating bills despite boiler efficiency
-
Uneven warmth between rooms
-
Visible gaps or flattened insulation in your loft
These signs indicate that your loft is letting heat escape — and your money with it.
Why Loft Insulation Matters in Preston Homes
With rising energy costs, well-installed insulation can save hundreds each year. Homes in Preston and surrounding areas often lose up to 25% of their heat through the roof if the loft isn’t properly insulated.
Proper insulation:
-
Improves comfort year-round
-
Reduces condensation and mould risk
-
Cuts carbon footprint
-
Adds long-term value to your home
