We all know from our school science days that heat rises. By insulating our roof spaces, we can stop heat leakage and literally put a lid on our energy bills. The materials required are available in most DIY shops and the costs are not excessive. In an era of rising energy prices, the incentive to stop wasting heat from the top of our houses is a strong one.

Attics and Lofts is written for the DIY enthusiast. It explains in jargon-free detail, with illustrations, how to do tasks unique to a home’s roof space. For example, how to make an attic access hatch, how to remove ceiling downlights and how to avoid moisture traps caused by rising air entering a cold space.

This book is in two parts – Part I is about insulating unconverted attics and Part II concerns the relining of existing loft conversions. It uses the author’s house in England as a case study, with accompanying photographs from his insulation work.
