No two homes are alike, and the same goes for their lofts and how homeowners use them. Some might simply want an access walkway, while others are keen to transform their entire loft into an energy-efficient storage space. At Key Loft Storage, we offer a range of loft boarding package to suit every type of property. To help you choose the best option, we recommend a complimentary loft survey and FREE instant quote, allowing us to assess your specific needs and design a bespoke solution.
Different Loft Boarding Packages
As the leading installer of raised loft boarding in Solihull and the West Midlands, we provide packages designed for various property types:
- New Build Loft Package.
- Post-1975 House Loft Package.
- Pre-1975 House Loft Package.
Each package offers more than just loft boarding – it includes everything needed to convert your loft into a practical, safe, and well-lit storage area. This includes a ladder, hatch, and lighting.
Loft Boarding Package for New Builds
Raised loft boarding is an excellent addition to new builds, offering extra storage space without affecting your home’s warranty. You can also expand this space with Truss Shelving, designed to fit between the trusses, providing additional storage above floor level. A key benefit of this system is its energy efficiency, as the raised boarding protects your insulation, ensuring your home retains heat more effectively.
Our New Build Loft Boarding Package starts at £580 for a 5m² area, including a three-section aluminium or timber loft ladder and operating pole. Lighting is essential for safe navigation, so we also install a single pendant light and switch, which can be upgraded to a fluorescent tube if preferred.
Loft Boarding Package for Pre-1975 Homes
Older homes often present unique challenges such as uneven joists, smaller loft entrances, and unprotected wiring or pipework. Our packages for pre-1975 properties address these issues, making it easier to transform your loft into a functional storage space.
Starting at £580 for a 5m² area, the Pre-1975 Loft Package includes the same ladder and lighting as the New Build package. It also offers an enlarged loft opening with a drop-down UPVC hatch, ensuring energy efficiency.
Given that older homes typically have less insulation, this package includes additional insulation to bring it up to the recommended depth of 270mm. If your insulation has become less effective over time, we can replace it to boost energy savings. We also offer loft roof lining options to protect your belongings from debris and enhance insulation. Choose between breathable loft lining or thermal loft lining based on your needs.
Loft Boarding Package for Post-1975 Homes
Our Post-1975 Loft Boarding Package combines features from the New Build and Pre-1975 packages, including:
- Raised loft boarding system to 270mm with interlocking loft boards.
- A three-section aluminium or timber loft ladder with operating pole.
- Enlarged loft opening with an insulated UPVC hatch.
- Light fitting with a fully qualified electrician issuing a minor works certificate.
As with all our packages, these elements are customisable, so you can choose what best suits your needs. Contact us at Key Loft Storage to discuss your options.
