About this service
We fix legs to the joists, lay boards across them at a height that clears the insulation, and line the boarded area up with the hatch and ladder so it’s easy to use.
What’s included
- Insulation brought to full depth first
- Legs fixed to the joists
- Boards laid above the insulation
- Area sized around trusses and the tank
- Eaves left clear
- Ladder, hatch and light if you want them
We price the job after looking at your loft. You get a written quotation before any work is agreed.
Why not just board the joists?
Boards nailed to the joists squash the insulation to the depth of the timber, about 100 mm in many lofts. Most of its warmth goes. Raising the floor keeps the full depth underneath.
How much floor?
It depends on the shape of the loft, the trusses, the tank and the headroom. Usually a walkway from the hatch and a storage deck where it’s easiest to reach. We’ll measure and suggest the size.
Make it easy to use
A folding ladder, an insulated hatch and a light make a boarded loft far more useful. We can quote for them together.
