Transform Your Loft Into a Spacious Storage With The UK's No.1 Loft Boarding Company.

Convert your dark, dangerous loft into a spacious, bright & safe storage area. Our loft boarding installers cover vast areas in the UK, ensuring the same quality loft installation regardless of where you are.

Are you able to board your loft in a new build home?

Yes, absolutely! New build lofts can be safely boarded using professional raised floor systems. The key is using the correct method that preserves insulation, maintains ventilation, and stays within structural load limits.

How much weight can a new build loft take?

New houses built to British Standards are designed to carry:

25kg/m² Permanent Load (storage + boarding)
180kg/m² Temporary Load (people walking)

For a typical 20m² boarded area, this allows approximately 300kg of stored items – more than sufficient for most household storage needs.

The difference between a new build and old homes?

Modern new builds have unique characteristics requiring specialist consideration:

• Deeper insulation: 270-300mm depth vs 100mm in older properties

Modern truss systems: Engineered roof structures with specific load limits

Integrated services: More electrical and plumbing infrastructure in loft space

Vapor control layers: Critical moisture management systems

Ventilation requirements: Essential for preventing condensation in well-sealed homes

When is the best time to board a new build loft?

Optimal timing considerations:

After final completion: All trades finished, snagging completed

Before moving in: Easier access, no disruption to living

Within first 2 years: While NHBC warranty details are fresh.

Customer And Which? Testimonials

Job completed quickly and to a high standard

From initial consultation and quote to completion of the job and post-work support, the service provided was excellent, timely and to a very high standard. Workmen were communicative throughout, respectful of our property, and left the site in an excellent condition. Highly recommended.

Chris, UK

Great work and professional service

Very happy with the work done, and the customer service received. The two chaps that came to do the insulation were very pleasant indeed, they were clear on what they were doing, and kept everything clean and tidy. Really pleased that I took the January discount offer. The house feels much warmer already, and the boards are now much better secured. I wasn't pressured by the sales team and was given plenty of information and time to decide. Really pleased I made decision to use RJ Insulation via Top Up Insulation.

Customer in Norfolk

Well explained and efficient.

First phone contact explained various options and the surveyor visit clearly outlined what would be done. Team that did the work arrived on time, were polite, and cleaned up after themselves. They were also happy to show me the work underway at various stages and explained what they were doing. Overall, very satisfied and happy to recommend to anyone else.

RJ Customer in Suffolk

Very happy with the whole job

I found all the people I had contact with in the company extremely helpful and competent. Originally the job was going to be done in one go but I needed to get the loft sprayed for woodworm so they came one day to remove the old boarding and insulation and came back a week later to install the new insulation and boarding. I had a slight issue with the loft ladder that they were going to provide so they came back the next day to install a more suitable ladder. As the company is based in Ipswich and I am in Cumbria I was very impressed by how adaptable they were to my requests as it meant more travelling for the installers. The finished job is perfect and the cottage is lovely and cosy now.
