If your loft insulation is inadequate then approximately one third of the heat in your home may escape through the your roof!
That is an awful lot of heat vanishing up into the sky instead of warming your toes!
Do you wear three jumpers on your back?
Is it the cosy warmth you lack?
Is your home so cold and dire?
Do you huddle round the fire?

LOFT FLOORING BOARDS
If you decide to lay flooring boards over the existing joists in the loft-space then this may require a Building Regulations Application to Building Control.
It is important to ascertain that the joists will not be overloaded with the additional weight of flooring boards and your storage.
It is always wise to seek professional advice.
LOFT LIGHTING
Any loft lighting must meet the Government Safety Standards. One or two four foot fluorescent tubes or regular lights together with an operating switch fitted just inside the loft, where it can be reached upon entering the loft space, should give enough light to keep safe.

A WARM LOFT
Now your house is warm on top,
Keep decluttering, please don't stop.
There's room up there for your temporary store,
But useful things only, clutter no more!
