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.

Questions about raised loft boarding in County Londonderry

Which council covers my address in County Londonderry?

Councils in County Londonderry include Causeway Coast and Glens, Derry City and Strabane and Mid Ulster. Your council matters for building control questions and some funding schemes.

Do you cover the whole of County Londonderry?

Yes. We cover every town and village in County Londonderry, including Derry/Londonderry, Coleraine and Dungiven.

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.

Can you board the whole loft?

We can, but we usually advise boarding only what you need. Every boarded area costs more and makes later checks under the floor harder.
