Hi All,

As all homeowners know, storage space, although not a glamorous subject matter, is up there as one of the most important requirements when it comes to choosing a home. From cupboards to garages, the more people you have in your home, the more spare space you surrender to storage. There are many inventive ways to maximise storage space in the home, but one of the most common, which many homeowners are fortunate enough to have access to, is the loft.

Unless you’re a bungalow owner, chances are you use your loft for storage. Loft space is a useful result of owning a home with an angled roof, and there are many different ways it can be put to use. Some homeowners choose to develop their loft into living space, decorating the interior, adding skylights and turning the space into an extra bedroom. Even if the loft space remains a storage space, the issue of access is a key concern. If the loft can’t be accessed easily, it not only adds stress to the daily routine around the house, it can also be highly unsafe.
