Loft Boarding Chelmsford — Built for the City's Homes
From the new-build estates around Beaulieu Park and Channels to the older semis in Old Moulsham and the village houses out towards Writtle, Chelmsford has every kind of loft we install in. We turn that wasted roof space into clean, safe, insulation-friendly storage — without flattening a single millimetre of your loft insulation.
New-build specialists
Beaulieu Park, Channels, Springfield and the developments out toward Boreham use trussed rafters that need a raised system. We've boarded hundreds of them.
Awkward Victorian lofts
Old Moulsham, Springfield Park and the streets around the city centre often have low headroom and tight hatches. We bring narrow boards and re-engineer access where needed.
Village & rural CM3
Cottages and converted barns around Boreham, Little Waltham and Writtle get the same lifetime-guarantee install — we just bring more boards.
What "raised loft boarding" actually means in a Chelmsford home
Modern building regs require around 270mm of loft insulation. If you board straight onto the joists — which most cheap installers still do — you crush it down to about 100mm, which kills your thermal performance and can fail an EPC. Our raised system uses BBA-approved LoftLeg supports to lift the boards clear of the insulation, so your storage sits above a fully working thermal layer.
- Insulation depth fully preserved (270mm+)
- Building-regulations compliant install
- BBA-approved LoftLeg components
- Heavy-duty 18mm tongue & groove boards
- Lifetime guarantee on the system
- Optional loft ladder & LED lighting package

Loft boarding Chelmsford — your questions answered
Do you cover the whole of Chelmsford?
Yes — Springfield, Beaulieu Park, Great Baddow, Galleywood, Broomfield, Writtle, Old Moulsham, Chelmer Village and out into the CM3 villages around Boreham and Little Waltham. If you're in the CM postcode area, we'll be there.
My Chelmsford new-build has trussed rafters — can you still board it?
Almost always. The estates around Beaulieu Park, Channels and Springfield are nearly all trussed-rafter construction. Our raised system is engineered to span them safely without overloading the roof or compressing your insulation.
Will loft boarding affect my EPC or building regs?
Not when it's done properly. Crushed insulation reduces your thermal performance and can drop your EPC band. Our raised install keeps the full insulation depth in place, so your loft stays compliant.
How much usable storage will I get?
A typical 3-bed Chelmsford semi gains around 15–25m². Larger detached houses out around Writtle or Boreham can hit 40m² or more. We measure during the free survey and quote on the actual area.
Can you fit a ladder and lighting at the same time?
Yes. Most Chelmsford customers add a fold-down loft ladder and an LED light kit to the boarding install — it's done in the same visit and saves you a second day off work.

"Brent came to do our loft boarding today and we are so so pleased. He was super easy to communicate with from arranging the appointment and on the day. We had an awkward loft but Brent had an answer to every problem and now we've got a lovely decent bit of extra storage. Thank you so much!"

"Brent was great to deal with from quote to completion. Came when he said he would, gave a very reasonable quote and maintained great communication. Cleared old insulation and boarding, installed new insulation, boarding and a custom hatch/ladder in just 3 days. It's great to actually use our loft safely!"
