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. We board the area you need, usually around the hatch, and leave the rest of the loft at full depth. More about raised loft boarding.
- Full-depth insulation under the boarded area
- Moisture-resistant chipboard or OSB boards
- Loft legs fixed to the joists

How much does raised loft boarding cost in Pontypool?

Questions about raised loft boarding in Pontypool
Do you take on jobs outside Pontypool?
Yes. We also work in Cwmbran and Risca and elsewhere in Gwent.
Do you charge extra to travel to Pontypool?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Pontypool. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
How soon can you visit a home in Pontypool?
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.
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.
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.
