1960s to 1980s houses: trussed lofts
Trussed roofs have timber W-shapes across the loft, which limits storage, but there’s usually room for a strip of boarding.

Trussed roofs have timber W-shapes across the loft, which limits storage, but there’s usually room for a strip of boarding.
What we do
We measure the depth and the joists, then quote for insulation to full depth, a raised floor where there’s room, and a ladder if access is awkward. Everything is priced separately so you can choose.
