doing this , is it solid/safe enough that i can put a little office in the attic, just a desk , pc and chair ?
is that a total of 200mm insulation or is it a 170mm on the top?
Hello Sir. Amazing video. I would like to ask (because i am not a builder) about something:I already have insulation in my loft. 1 .Do i have to put it properly beetwen joints before I will start put cross timber?do i have to put another insulation?I would like to know how to avoid condensation?thank you
Do you wanna do mine?
Hi great videos I'm doing a hobby room up in my loft I currently have 4x2 ceiling joists but not much headroom can I get away with 3x2 cross bracing or will it have to be 4x2 and do I need to put them onto wall hangers or just screw them down to the original joists cheers
Hi please don't laugh, a total novice here - but would it be possible for me to do this in my loft ( trying to make a studio of sorts) following your instructions.....thanks for any advice and good vid
the music can get seriously irritating
Hi thinking of converting my loft into a little bedroom what are the best timber to use plz?? An also do I need to use hangers an do I need to run them the same way as the original joist?? Just trying to get as much advice as I can thanks..
Great vid, thanks. My loft already has insulation (roughly 15" thick), would i still need to raise the boarding in order to leave a gap? Cheers
We’re looking to use our loft as a spare room when needed in house we’ve just purchased. Could we do this method? Or would it have to have steel or bigger joists bolted to existing ones?? Cheers if anyone could get back to us.
Great job!
Yea good video. Recently did this in mine before converting. If your house is older and some of the old beams aren't perfectly straight be prepared for some potential ceiling cracks and plaster pops below. The new timbers pull the old ones straight and the pressure can cause cracks. But all good.
Good job
Hi I know this is an older video. I'm looking at a flat loft so quite large, just as a space, so no toilet or other reg stuff. I'm interested in the cross bracing, if existing older joists are usually 4x2 or 5x2. Without sliding in new 8x2 along side the old ones to bring it up to spec for an actual live in space, I've seen it being done by gluing a 2x2 or 3x2 on top of the joists and screwing at set spacings passed by architects. Does this counter bracing basically do the same or spread the weight over many joists or is it just to create more space for more insulation?
Good post
What's holding all the weight of the new beams and flooring? Surely not the original joists?
Do you have loads of cables hidden underneath? What are your thoughts on aerial cables etc being under the flooring?
For any electrical cables that are at the height of the original joists and will be difficult to raise the height of…. What’s the best way to deal with them?
Nice
