About this service
We bring the insulation up to depth, fix legs to the joists and lay a boarded floor above, so you get storage and the insulation keeps working.
What’s included
- Insulation checked and brought up to depth first
- Legs fixed to the joists, boards laid above
- A storage area sized to your loft
- Eaves and airflow left clear
- Ladder, hatch and light if you want them
- A written quote first
We price the job after looking at your loft. You get a written quotation before any work is agreed.
Why raised
Insulation works because of the air trapped in it. Flattened under boards, it loses most of that. Raising the floor keeps the full depth below.
Check first
If the existing insulation is damp or soiled, boarding over it seals the problem in. We check it first and replace it if needed.
Keep the roof breathing
Boards stop short of the eaves, and nothing is packed against the roof, so air can still move through.
