The newer estates around Dickens Heath, Cheswick Green and Monkspath are pre-insulated to current regs but typically have no boarding or storage. Both property types deliver predictable, high-ROI loft transformations. ### Most-requested services in Shirley - Raised boarding over existing insulation in Dickens Heath and Monkspath new-builds. - Insulation top-ups and boarding bundles in 1960s/70s Shirley estates. - Modern ladder upgrades replacing original 1970s timber loft stairs. - LED lighting installs alongside boarding works. Local Property Reality ## Common loft issues across Shirley B90 Shirley's housing mix produces a very predictable set of recurring loft issues, most of which we resolve in a single day. ### Crushed insulation in newer estates Dickens Heath and Monkspath homes were built with 270mm insulation, but homeowners often boarded directly on top, losing 60% of thermal performance. ### Wobbly original 70s ladders 1970s estate housing typically still has the original timber loft ladder, wobbly, unsafe, missing modern locks. Most replaced in 2 hours. ### Compressed mineral wool in pre-1985 housing Older Shirley terraces typically have insulation that has settled to 60% of installed depth, quick top-up, immediate EPC and bills win. ### Dark, hard-to-use lofts Most Shirley lofts have no fixed lighting, adding switched LEDs is the cheapest comfort upgrade and we bundle it into most boarding jobs.
