  • After getting quotes of around a grand to add a ladder and board 10sqm of the loft, I’m going to take the plunge and DIY it.

    Plan is to counter-batten the current joists to give enough room for the insulation - but was wondering, for 18mm t+g chipboard, are 600mm centres fine for the battens they’ll sit on? Or is 400mm preferable?

  • I'd be looking at costing 18mm osb at 600 Vs p5 boards at 450.

    Taking up the 'loftboards' that previous owner had laid in lounge was a pig.

  • going off travis perkins’ 2.4*0.6 OSB, price per sqm is almost the same (both about £15, OSB a quid more per sqm)

    So probably a good shout, ta!
