Loft Floor Carpentry
Loft floor carpentry lays a boarded floor in a loft on joists that can take it, or on new joists where the ceiling joists cannot.
About Loft Floor Carpentry
Loft floor carpentry lays a boarded floor in a loft on joists that can take it, or on new joists where the ceiling joists cannot.
Ceiling joists are often not floor joists. We do not board a loft for storage or a room by screwing chipboard to undersized ceiling ties. If the loft is to be walked properly, the structure is looked at and, where it needs it, designed. The hatch and the trimmers are part of the job. Insulation is not crushed under the new boards. The POA follows that decision. iComply quotes it from Stockport.
- ●Ceiling joists are not assumed to be a floor
- ●Insulation not crushed
- ●A bedroom is a conversion, not a sheet of board
- ●Written POA after a look — no catalogue £ figure

Loft Floor Carpentry FAQ
Can you just board over the insulation?+
Only on legs, for light storage. A floor you will walk needs structure, and it must not flatten the quilt.
Will this make a bedroom?+
Boarding is not a conversion. A habitable room needs structure, stairs, fire and building control. We say that before anyone moves a bed up.
How is Loft Floor Carpentry priced?+
Price on application after we know what the loft floor is for, and the size of the existing joists. iComply does not publish a catalogue £ figure for this job.
