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.
- Full-depth insulation under the boarded area
- Loft legs fixed to the joists
- Moisture-resistant chipboard or OSB boards

Questions about raised loft boarding in Peterhead
How soon can you visit a home in Peterhead?
We call you back to agree a time that suits you, and confirm the date in writing. Availability changes week to week, so we will give you the earliest slot we have.
Do you cover all of AB42?
Yes, we cover the AB42 postcode district and the districts around Peterhead.
Do you take on jobs outside Peterhead?
Yes. We also work in Fraserburgh and Inverurie and elsewhere in Grampian.
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.
