Why should I raise my loft boarding?

When it comes to utilising the space in your loft, installing loft boarding is an excellent option. However, it’s essential to install it correctly, with raised loft boarding being the best option. Here are some reasons why:

Improved safety: Installing raised loft boarding creates a sturdy and stable surface, reducing the risk of falls and injuries. This is particularly important if you plan to use your loft for storage.

Increased storage capacity: Raised loft boarding creates a platform that allows for more storage space in your loft. It can be difficult to store items safely on loft insulation or between joists, but with raised loft boarding, you’ll have a level, stable surface to store your belongings.

Better insulation: Raised loft boarding allows for proper ventilation and insulation. If you install boarding directly onto the insulation, you’ll block the airflow, which can lead to moisture buildup and reduce the insulation’s effectiveness. With raised boarding, air can flow freely, improving ventilation and reducing the risk of dampness.

Cost-effective: Installing raised loft boarding can be a cost-effective solution to increase your storage space or create an additional room. Compared to other home extensions or renovations, installing loft boarding is a relatively low-cost option.

Increased property value: An additional storage room can increase your property’s value. Installing raised loft boarding correctly can help maximise your loft’s potential, making it a valuable addition to your home.

It’s essential to choose a professional and experienced loft boarding company to install raised loft boarding correctly.

LOFT-E® METAL RAISED FLOOR SYSTEM

Raise your loft floor above the insulation

All new build houses today have lofts that must conform to building regulations and government recommended loft insulation heights.

The LOFT-E® system has been designed to solve two problems when planning on boarding your loft for storage.

Firstly, boarding directly on top of your loft insulation is incorrect. Squashing or having to remove the existing loft insulation should never be done.
Building above the insulation is now possible by using a product that is designed to last a lifetime. The LOFT-E® system can not only raise the loft floor platform above the insulation level, but it can also account for variations in joist height.

Secondly, a problem that plastic products face in a loft are the consistent temperature changes, plastic softens during the heat of summer and therefore has the potential for the legs to buckle and the storage floor to collapse. This can also happen in the cold of winter with the legs getting so cold that they can become very brittle and can have a tendency to fracture, again leaving you with the same problem. Hence why we chose 100% recyclable steel.

There are 2 main parts to the LOFT-E® system. you can read about them here:
