Methods for Pre-1975 homes

Over the years, construction methods have changed. Older houses often have uneven joists and may or may not have timber supports in to support the roof structure, water tanks, wiring, pipework and often small loft entrances.

 

Our pre-1975 loft boarding packages for older properties are the perfect answer to solve most of these issues easily, also offering an asbestos survey as part of the package.
