Britain’s homes are getting smaller
What’s the difference between a double-decker bus and a new-build home in Britain? The answer is: not much.
British homes are smaller than ever. The average living space of 67.8 square metres is only slightly larger than the 55 square metres floor space of the iconic buses.*
And, unsurprisingly, this comes with a lack of storage space.
Looking for storage solutions
When our founder, Andrew Johnstone, moved into his shiny new-build home, he had to get creative and find ways to maximise the space in his house.
Every single available space was quickly fitted with shelves and other neat storage solutions. But even after an intense Marie Kondo decluttering session, it still wasn’t enough.
Enter, stage left, the loft.
Loft flooring at its best
Many new-build home owners are told that they can’t use their loft. But as a Chartered Engineer, Andrew wouldn’t take no for an answer.
Looking at his options, he found many of the common loft floorings lacking in credibility. With the exception of LoftZone, which stood out as a clear winner with its certified & industry-approved loft boarding system.
After a successful test in his own loft, Andrew started sharing his discovery with the other residents in his development, resulting in another, huge order of loft flooring kits – and lots of happy neighbours!
More storage space for your home
Seeing the high demand & being even more convinced of the benefits of LoftZone, Andrew was now on a mission: He registered Loft Boarding Scotland Ltd in June 2017 and teamed up with LoftZone, becoming one of only two authorised installers north of the border.
Since then, our team of experienced local joiners & qualified electricians has fitted loft flooring, loft ladders & loft lighting all over Scotland, helping even more people extend the available storage space in their new-build homes – and older properties, too!
