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 Glasgow
Which council covers my address in Glasgow?
Addresses in Glasgow come under Glasgow City council. The council matters for building control questions and some funding schemes.
How do I book a survey in Glasgow?
Send the form or call us. We call back to agree a time and confirm it in writing.
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.
