Loft Boarding a New Build Home in Derby
Vital Things to Consider
Can I Install Loft Boarding into my New Build
Loft Boaring a New Build:
Yes, you can board a loft in a new build property provided the installation does not compress the insulation, restrict ventilation, or affect the structural integrity of the roof. A raised loft boarding system can create useful storage space while maintaining the performance of the insulation and complying with current building standards.
NHBC Warranty on New Builds:
NHBC Warranty on New Builds:
Loft boarding should not affect your NHBC warranty when it is installed correctly using a system designed for new build homes. Problems can occur if insulation is removed, compressed, or ventilation is restricted, as this may affect the property's thermal performance and compliance with building regulations.
The Importance of Maintaining an Air-Flow in Your Loft
The Importance of Maintaining an Air-Flow in Your Loft:
Proper loft ventilation helps prevent condensation and moisture build-up. New build homes often contain more construction moisture during their first few years, making airflow particularly important. Any loft boarding system should allow air to circulate above the insulation to help reduce the risk of damp and mould.
What is the Best Way to Board Out a Loft in a New Build
Loftzone Storefloor:
The best loft boarding solution for a new build is typically a raised loft boarding system. Raised systems are designed to sit above the insulation, allowing recommended insulation depths and ventilation to be maintained while providing safe and accessible storage space.
Can Insulation be Removed to Board a Loft in a New Build
Loft Insulation versus Loft Storage in Your New Build:
No, loft insulation should not be removed or significantly compressed when installing loft boarding. Compressing insulation reduces its effectiveness and can increase heat loss from the property. A raised loft boarding system allows storage space to be created without compromising insulation performance.
