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.
