Standard vs Raised, Explained Honestly
Loft boarding turns your loft into safe, usable storage. The key decision is standard boarding (laid directly on the joists) versus a raised system (lifted above your insulation on a supporting frame) — and getting it wrong can compress your insulation and reduce how well it performs.
Standard vs Raised Boarding
Standard boards sit directly on the joists; raised boarding uses a supporting frame to lift boards above your insulation, protecting its full depth.
Don't Compress Your Insulation
Laying boards straight onto loose mineral wool compresses it, significantly reducing how well it performs.
Weight Capacity
Standard systems typically hold around 25kg/m²; reinforced raised systems can take up to 50kg/m², suited to heavier storage.
Why Quotes Vary So Much
Price depends on loft size, hatch access, current insulation depth and which system is genuinely needed — we explain which applies to yours.

Standard boarding typically holds around 25kg/m². Reinforced raised systems can take up to 50kg/m², better suited to heavier storage.
It depends on your existing insulation depth. If you have modern 270mm insulation, raised boarding is usually needed to avoid compressing it. We confirm which applies to your loft at survey.
