Business Information
Loft Boarding Scotland helps hundreds of homeowners each year increase available storage space in their home by:
- Flooring lofts
- Fitting ladders
- Installing lighting
The traditional method of placing boards directly on joists or building up the joists is not suitable for new build homes. This reduces airflow, causing damp, or squashes insulation making it far less efficient. Some companies even suggest you remove insulation - such a waste when you've spent so much money on an energy-efficient home!
We specialise in LoftZone - the ONLY raised storage flooring product currently available independently approved by the BBA. It does not affect your NHBC new home warranty. Installations usually take only 1 day, or 2 days for the largest installations.
Already in the 2 years we have been operating we have more than 400 installations completed across Central Scotland.
Our courteous tradesmen are qualified, time-served and fully-insured joiners and qualified electricians, who will leave your installation clean, tidy and guaranteed for 5 years.

Loft Boarding Scotland 2018 ReviewIn 2018 we fitted 2824m2 of raised loft flooring, 161 loft ladders and 168 LED lights. Here’s to a great year, and an even better 2019!
Find out more about our raised loft flooring solution for storage here: https://loftboardingscotland.co.uk/
This compact Concertina ladder was fitted to gain access to the roof in a traditional tenement close in Edinburgh city centre today. Until now, they only had a shaky step ladder to reach the 3.4m (12ft) high opening.
We replaced a difficult to operate Ramsay ladder with a beautifully-designed concertina ladder and our customers were delighted with how easy it is to use.
We installed this Fakro LST Concertina ladder in an existing hatch opening in a house in Kirkcaldy this week. The opening was wider than can be found in most new builds, but not long enough for a wooden ladder. The wide range of sizes available from Fakro meant we were able to choose a ladder which made full use of the space available. The heavy duty springs make opening and closing the ladder a breeze.

I am delighted with my new loft ladder and custom hatch. Everything was very professional from my initial contact to completion. The surveyor came out was very helpful in explaining all the options available to suit my needs. The quote provided had everything listed individually which made it easy to select what was needed to suit my budget. The installation was great, with care taken to cover carpets etc. They took time to explain everything and show me how to use the ladder and even provided a video. I would highly recommend!

I have had work done on two occasions from Loft Boarding Scotland.
From first contact to completion every staff member has been professional and customer focussed. Every step of your visit is explained and planned for you.
Exceptional customer service.
Staff know their remit and it was a job well done. My loft looks like the one on their website and will be a huge help for storage
I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone requiring their loft floored.

I cannot praise loft boarding scotland enough, from the get go they were nothing but professional and reliable.
Callum came out and gave us a great quote to get the whole central part of our loft done. I linked with Gail numerous times who is such a lovely person to speak to. She would check in to make sure everything was still going as planned and gave any updates,
Stuart and the guys who showed up where amazing, very clean and profession and went beyond the call and helped me with the insulation in the attic, making sure that there was no cold spots, and they were quick, from knock on the door to leaving was no more than 4 hours.
They done such an amazing job that it has given us the ability to declutter the house and get everything organised.
We genuinely wish we done it sooner, will defo be recommending to friends, colleagues and family for sure!!!

I had half my loft space floored, lighting put in and loft ladders fitted. From the girls I spoke to on the phone to the guys who did the work, the service was excellent. They left my carpets cleaner than when they arrived. Would not hesitate to recommend them.

Absolutely first class experience from a superb company: with excellent communication by the office team and a very thorough survey and outstanding workmanship by the team on the ground, Loft Boarding Scotland went above and beyond and did a fantastic job. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who wants high quality work with peace of mind carried out in their home.
Our loft was not the easiest one to work with but the team dealt with it expertly and patiently. We had our loft fully floored with a custom made hatch and aluminium ladder installed along with LED lighting. The team were the tidiest tradespeople we have come across and and every single member of the company we spoke to was friendly, courteous and informative. Already one of our neighbours has approached them about an installation.
We are delighted with our new flooring and all the space we now have. If you are thinking about loft flooring, don’t hesitate to contact Loft Boarding Scotland.

I had my attic floored with added shelving and a new hatch with telescopic ladders.
From first contact via email everyone was very helpful and friendly, everything was done to suit me from the survey and when I was able to be off for when the work was being done, nothing was a problem.
The job took 2 and a half days and the workmen were very nice and cleaned up everyday when they left and took all the rubbish away at the end of job.
Excellent service from the whole team.

Specialist loft flooring (meets regulations for flooring above the level of insulation installed into new-build houses). This company has it all - hugely professional service, both at the installation and customer service ends; work completed very competently and quickly, no mess whatsoever, and good value for money. Absolutely delighted with the whole experience.

I had the central section of my loft floored, new ladder with hatch, socket and lights installed in my new build house. Everything about the process has been fantastic, the guys who carried out the work were really friendly and professional and left absolutely no mess. Work was completed to an excellent standard and I love all the extra storage I now have! I would definitely recommend

Installed ~30m^2 of loft flooring, 2 LED lights and a ladder in our new build home. Communication right from the start has been fantastic especially during a challenging pandemic. The guys were great - they were polite, friendly, professional, and respectful. The job was done cleanly and to a high standard. The cost was more than what a competitor had offered but in the end we feel that the experience, quality of work, level of service, and peace of mind was worth the cost.

Had central area of loft boarded, LED strip light fitted and new hatch with ladder. Louis and Kieren did a good job, worked tidily and cleaned up afterwards, including hoovering the stairs. Gael and Melissa in the office kept me fully informed as the order progressed.
Happy to recommend.

We had our attic floored and a ladder fitted,
The ladder we had chosen without actually seeing it was not what we had expected and the flooring was Short, we contacted the company and they were all very helpful keeping us informed and coming to discuss the problem we didn’t wait long and the job is now complete and we are really pleased, Gael in the office was great at keeping us informed and the joiners have done a great job and were very pleasant professional and tidy at both visits x

Having the loft boarded, extra insulation and a new hatch with pull down ladder.
Found loft boarding scotland in an online search, thought the website was very easy to use. Up front about the broad cost of the flooring/boarding system and very easy to book an appointment. Quote was clear and set out and very easy for us to remove items we decided we didn't need (like an extra light).
Work took less than a day and they were nice and tidy. But of damage caused by making the hatch bigger was resolved by a plasterer coming out 2 days later, no hassle at all. There was a call to check we were happy with everything before the invoice was even sent. More expensive than trying to floor the loft yourself, but excellently done and a much better job.

I recently had my whole loft boarded, and i am chuffed with the job that the team have done. My job was slightly delayed because of the current situation, but as soon as the green light was given to start work again, i was booked in and given a choice of dates. Communication from the team was fab, and they were quick and efficient in their 2 day job. Everyone I met (from organising my quote to the demo of my new ladder) was super friendly/approachable. Im really pleased with the fab job that they've all done, and I really appreciate it!

Andrew and his team provided an excellent service every time they contacted us in the weeks before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. They were friendly and professional in everything they did. The order was for an electric loft ladder for my Mum, who lives alone and is in her 80´s. The team were great, following all social distancing and other COVID-19 requirements. They also kept both my Mum and I fully informed and updated on the job progress each day so we knew what to expect. Delightful company to work with and thanks to them for doing a really good quality job.

Ordered loft flooring 3.6mx3.6m which was completed on the phone very efficiently. I was given an exact date and time for installation. I was notified the day before of the Installation teams names and time of arrival. They were very efficient and cleaned up after the job. The electrician then came and fitted the loft light. Again they were very efficient. I am very happy with the work done and the price I paid. I would recommend this company.
