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.

Questions about raised loft boarding in Staines-upon-Thames

Can you visit Staines-upon-Thames outside working hours?

Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

What do I need to do before you arrive in Staines-upon-Thames?

Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.

How soon can you visit a home in Staines-upon-Thames?

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.
