How Much To Board A Loft?
If you stay in a building where the space meant for storing stuffs is not sufficient, boarding your loft may be just the perfect solution for you. In several homes, the space is already present, and all you have to do is to make it more usable by boarding it out. This is unarguably one of the easiest and quickest ways to create storage space in your home.
Boarding a loft comes with a number of special benefits which includes:
• Assisting to declutter our living spaces and makes for a more spacious home.
• Creating a usable space whereby all seasonal items can be stored.
• Assisting to reduce heating bills as it prevents the loss of heat. When your loft is well boarded and insulated, it’ll help trap heat and prevent it from escaping via the roof.
• Adding to your home’s value by making your attic a very useful space for storing items.
• Helping to create a quiet space which can used for relaxation or getaway purposes and of course, this will require a bit more structural work.
So now that you’ve learnt a few of the benefits associated with boarding a loft, how much will it cost to have one made? This depends on an array of factors which includes the size of the space needed, the type of materials and labour cost.
Overall, a standard semi detached building will feature a lot of space of about 40 sqm to 50 sqm in size. There’ll be a need to add to the height of the floor joists before installing the chipboard decking boards. This job size should cost within the range of £1,000 to £1,500. It’ll require just a two-person team that are fully equipped and well versed about the processes.
