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.

How much does raised loft boarding cost in Lincolnshire?

Building regulations in England
In England, a loft insulated across more than half its area should reach a U-value of 0.16 W/m²K. Insulation alone is not usually notified to building control. How the rules work across the UK.
Questions about raised loft boarding in Lincolnshire
Which council covers my address in Lincolnshire?
Councils in Lincolnshire include Lincolnshire, North East Lincolnshire and North Lincolnshire. Your council matters for building control questions and some funding schemes.
How do I book a survey in Lincolnshire?
Send the form or call us. We call back to agree a time and confirm it in writing.
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.
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.
