# Loft Boarding in Bayston HillEstate housing with untapped space
Bayston Hill's estate housing has consistent, boardable roofs, but almost none of them are floored properly. Raised decking, safe access and light change that.

## Loft boarding for Bayston Hill homes
Bayston Hill sits just south of Shrewsbury on the A49, which makes it easy for us to reach on our regular Shrewsbury runs. We cover the whole village along with Condover, Dorrington, Longden and the neighbouring settlements south of the county town.

Most of the village's housing dates from the second half of the twentieth century: 1960s and 1970s semis and detached homes, with later infill and modern development. That means trussed rafter roofs are the norm: uniform, predictable, and never designed as floors. The good news is that once you have seen one street's roof structure, you can plan the next one quickly; the bad news is that they all need raised boarding rather than boards straight on the joists.

Family houses in Bayston Hill also tend to have been insulated at some point under a grant scheme, with 270mm or more laid over 100mm joists. That is exactly the situation where flat boarding does damage, and exactly where a LoftLeg deck at 300mm earns its money.

### Bayston Hill at a glance

- On our regular Shrewsbury route

## Why choose The Little Loft Company in Bayston Hill

### Regularly in the area
Bayston Hill is minutes from Shrewsbury, where we work most weeks, so surveys are easy to arrange within a few working days.

### We know this roof type inside out
Eight years of Shropshire lofts means trussed rafter estate roofs are our bread and butter; we can plan an efficient layout quickly and accurately.

### Straightforward, fixed pricing
Packages from £850, quoted in writing after an in-person survey, with no change once the work starts.

### Insured and guaranteed
£1,000,000 public liability insurance, employers' liability cover and a 10-year workmanship guarantee.

## Loft issues in Bayston Hill
Estate housing of this era produces a very consistent list of loft faults.

### Trussed rafters used as a floor
The horizontal timber in a trussed roof is a ceiling tie, not a floor joist. Loading it directly with storage is how ceilings crack. Raised boarding transfers weight across the structure properly, which is the only sensible way to floor this type of roof.

### Grant-scheme insulation crushed flat
Many Bayston Hill lofts received a deep top-up years ago. Where boards were later laid straight on the joists, that insulation is now compressed to a third of its depth and performing accordingly. Lifting, re-dressing and re-boarding on legs restores it.

### Truss webs blocking movement
The diagonal webs in a trussed roof make it hard to move around, especially carrying something. Planning the deck and the ladder position together, so you step off the ladder into a clear run, matters as much as the square-metre figure.

### Dark lofts and torch-in-teeth access
Very few estate lofts were ever wired. A 4ft LED batten with a switch at the hatch, fitted by a qualified electrician, transforms how usable the space is and makes the ladder far safer to use.

## How a Bayston Hill loft job runs
The same five steps on every job, wherever you are in Shropshire.

- 1
### Call or message us
Tell us the town, the type of house and what you want the loft to do. Calls are answered by the fitter, Monday to Friday, 8:00am – 5:00pm, not a call centre reading from a script.

- 2
### In-person survey
We come out and get into the loft. We never quote from photographs, because joist spacing, insulation depth, tank position and hatch location all change the price and the plan.

- 3
### Fixed written quote
You get a clear price with the boarding area, hatch, ladder, lighting and insulation itemised. Package pricing starts at £850 (Basic), £1,350 (Premium) and £2,000 (Ultimate).

- 4
### Booked-in installation
A 25% deposit secures your date. We confirm how long your job will take at survey, dust sheets down, landing protected and everything cleared away before we leave.

- 5
### Handover and guarantee
We walk you through the ladder, the lighting and the safe loading of the deck, then hand over a 10-year workmanship guarantee. We hold £1,000,000 public liability insurance throughout.

## What loft boarding costs in Bayston Hill
Bayston Hill pricing follows the standard packages: £850 for 10sqm of raised boarding with a uPVC hatch, aluminium ladder and LED light; £1,350 for the 20sqm Premium package with an extended hatch and timber ladder; and £2,000 for the 30sqm Ultimate package with a full insulation top-up. Most village semis and detached homes here fall comfortably into Basic or Premium.

Where a previous flat-boarded floor has to be lifted and relaid on legs, that is priced at the survey and often costs less than a full new installation because sound boards get re-used. A 25% deposit secures the installation date, with the balance on completion and a 10-year workmanship guarantee at handover.
