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

Questions about raised loft boarding in Kinross
Do you charge extra to travel to Kinross?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Kinross. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do you cover all of KY13?
Yes, we cover the KY13 postcode district and the districts around Kinross.
Do you take on jobs outside Kinross?

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.
