Loft Boarding, Ladders & Hatches - Midlands

The Loftman Company

The Loftman Company are loft access and storage floor specialists working with clients in the Midlands and the surrounding area. Our skilled, highly experienced team offers a range of services to assist you in making your unused loft space into a safer, accessible storage area. 

What we do

With over 25 years’ experience, we pride ourselves on our impeccable standard of workmanship, our excellent customer service and our friendly approach. We operate across the whole of the Midlands, from Birmingham and Nottingham to Warwick and Northampton, providing our clients with an efficient service that will add value to their property. 

Adapting your loft enhances your home, making use of otherwise empty or hazardous space, so you and your family can use it safely for storing seasonal items, furniture or collectables so they don’t take up valuable living space. If you’re looking for ways to add value to your home, transforming your loft couldn’t be easier or more effective. Our affordable, high quality loft services help you to maximise the space in your home, making it more functional.

Loft Services

We offer several services to help our customers make better use of their loft, including:

We’re proud of the high standard of craftsmanship we provide when supplying loft boarding to Midlands customers. Using 18mm thick, moisture-resistant floor boarding, we use a high-performance floor panel that delivers stability and durability for your loft space. Loft boarding has the potential to create 50% more floor space in your home, generating usable space for you and your family but also for potential buyers if you’re looking to sell in the future. All our fitters are experienced and well-trained and adhere to the latest industry standards. 

We have experience of fitting a wide range of loft hatches, so whether you need a loft hatch relocated, enlarged or replaced entirely, we can help. The loft hatch is a vital component of the loft area, but older properties tend to have smaller hatches which can make accessing the space difficult. Similarly, some properties have a pitch roof without a loft hatch installed. When it comes to loft hatches, Midlands customers can be confident in our ability to provide a hatch that meets the perfect standards, with insulation, draught proofing and fire-rated materials as needed. 

A good quality loft ladder makes the process of accessing your loft space easier and safer. We can supply and install high quality loft ladders in Midlands properties, ensuring they’re the perfect size and fit for your home. Whether you need to access your loft regularly or a few times a year, having a suitable loft ladder in place will reduce the risk of accidents when accessing your loft. You may be upgrading an existing ladder that’s in disrepair or installing one to make using your loft easier – whatever your needs, our expert team can assist you in choosing the right loft ladder. 

We can also help with other areas of your loft space, including loft lining, loft insulation, Velux windows and electrical. Why not get in touch with our friendly team to discuss your requirements?

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Interested to learn more about The Loftman Company and our wide range of loft services? Take a look at our most commonly asked questions below.
For storage purposes, loft boarding doesn’t require you to have planning permission and is totally within your permitted development rights. However, if you’re turning a loft storage space into an actual living space afterwards, then this will require permission and compliance with a different set of regulations to ensure safety and protect your relevant warranties.
The floor joists in a loft can carry roughly 40 kg per square metre, so ensuring you keep your stored items under this will maintain the strength of your joists. It’s crucial to not overload your loft boarding to avoid the chance of any cracks in the ceiling below while protecting the joists from cracking – so try to spread out the weight in your loft as best you can.
It’s very important to us that our team have the required insurance, training and qualifications for the type of work they carry out. Such as Asbestos identification, working at height and managing risk through detailed assessments. This ensures we provide outstanding service and deliver your project safely.
If we wanted to ruin your loft insulation, we’d use standard loft boarding. But as loft experts, we steer clear of nailing loft boards directly onto joists, as this will just compromise the amount of airflow that passes through the layers of flooring and will eventually cause too much damage to the property.
If you are currently using this space for nothing, then loft boarding will almost certainly increase the value of your property. It’s said that installing loft boarding can add up to 50% more floor space, especially when combined with our range of fitted ladder options that fold and collapse.
When fitted properly by trained experts, loft boarding cannot in any way damage a property. On the other hand, if a new flooring system is fitted incorrectly, it can create a world of problems. For example, standard loft boarding can lead to a build-up of damp and heat loss throughout the home.
No, loft boarding is not expensive, espeically when you consider the energy saving potential and reduced heating bills.
Most lofts are perfectly safe, so don’t worry! But if you live in a pre-war-era home or you just need extra peace of mind before going ahead, we offer Structural Calculations and Certificates so you can get an indication of the maximum load limit.
