We raise our boarding above the insulation to ensure the correct amount of airflow in your loft to prevent moisture and heat being trapped in the loft.
We have a wide range of hatches and ladders to suit various loft spaces to ensure maximum safety when entering and exiting a loft space.
Make sure you're not loosing heat in your home. As part of our package deals get your insulation to recommended levels.
A loft space can be very dark, we can install a LED light bulb with a pull switch so that you are able to turn it on as soon as you get into the loft.
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:
