Loft Insulation and Raised Boarding in Torquay
Countrywide Roofing & Insulation completed a 120m² loft insulation top-up in Torquay, replacing 38m² of existing boarding with a new raised boarded area. The project made use of the loft’s existing ladder and lighting.

| Existing boards removed | 38m² |
| New raised boarding | 38m² |
| Existing access | Built-in ladder and lighting |
Removing the existing boarding
Our team lifted 38m² of existing boards to access the loft floor beneath them. Opening the previously covered area allowed the insulation work to continue beneath the replacement boarding. The photographs show the work progressing around the existing timber supports and pipework.
Topping up 120m² of insulation
We added insulation across 120m² of the loft floor, including beneath the new raised boarded area. The boarding supports were installed through the insulation, allowing the finished surface to sit above it rather than pressing the insulation down beneath boards laid directly on the joists.
Installing the raised boarded area
With the insulation in place, we installed 38m² of new boarding on the raised supports. The finished photographs show the continuous boarded section alongside the surrounding insulated areas.
The existing ladder and lighting remained part of the access arrangement. The completed project brought the insulation and boarding work together in one installation.
