Loft boarding for Every Type of Swindon home

Swindon has a wide mix of housing, and the right method depends on the roof. We assess your loft first, then fit a system that suits its age and structure. We work across the town and nearby areas, including:

  • Old Town and the town centre, where older Victorian and Edwardian roofs often need a raised floor to protect the timbers.
  • 1930s to 1960s semis in Rodbourne, Gorse Hill and Walcot, where joist depth and old insulation shape the fit.
  • Modern estates in West Swindon, North Swindon, Wichelstowe, Haydon Wick and Nine Elms, where trussed roofs and deep insulation suit a raised system.
  • Surrounding towns and villages such as Royal Wootton Bassett, Highworth, Stratton and Wroughton. See the full list on our areas we cover page.

The Benefits of Loft Boarding for Storage

Loft boarding isn’t just about creating space — it’s about making your home more functional and organised. Here’s why it’s essential:

Older and Newer Homes

Pre-1975 homes. Older roofs are built in many ways and often hold older insulation. We use systems made to suit these roofs, for a stable, secure floor.

Post-1975 homes. Newer roofs are more standard and usually hold deep insulation, so we fit a raised floor that protects it and meets current building standards.

Swindon’s property mix means we often provide different solutions for different clients, but our experience means there’s very little we haven’t seen before.

Loft boarding in Swindon: FAQs

No. Loft boarding counts as an internal home improvement, so it does not need planning permission in most Swindon homes. Listed buildings and homes in conservation areas, such as parts of Old Town, can have extra rules, and we will flag this at the survey.

Cost depends on the floor area, the board type and whether you need a raised system over deep insulation. We give a fixed written quote after a free survey, with no hard sell. Raised boarding usually costs a little more per square metre than standard boarding, because it uses extra timber and supports.

Yes. We fit a raised floor that sits above the insulation, so it keeps its full depth and keeps working. Pressing insulation flat under boards cuts how well it holds heat, which is why we raise the floor instead. See our loft insulation in Swindon page for more on depth and savings.

Most installs finish in a day. Larger lofts, or jobs that also need a ladder, hatch or lighting, can take a little longer. We confirm timings in your quote.

Our heavy-duty boards support up to 150kg per square metre. We advise on safe loading at the survey, based on your roof structure.

Standard boarding sits straight on the joists, which limits height and can press on insulation. Raised boarding lifts the floor above the joists on supports, which keeps insulation at full depth and improves airflow. Raised boarding suits most modern homes with deep insulation.
