What is raised loft boarding?
Laying boards straight onto the joists compresses the insulation to the joist depth, which can halve its value, and can trap moisture under the boards. Loft legs screw to the joists and carry the boards at the right height. More about raised loft boarding.
- Moisture-resistant chipboard or OSB boards
- Full-depth insulation under the boarded area
- Loft legs fixed to the joists

Questions about raised loft boarding in Maidenhead
Will I get a written quote for work in Maidenhead?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Can you visit Maidenhead outside working hours?
Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
How do I pay for work in Maidenhead?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
How much weight can a boarded loft take?
Ordinary household storage such as boxes and cases is fine on most lofts. Heavy items need the joists assessing. Trussed roofs are lighter than traditional cut roofs.
Is loft boarding included in VAT relief?
No. Boarding is not an energy-saving material, so it is standard-rated if VAT applies, while the insulation underneath can be zero-rated.
