Loft Boarding Information Needed / Builder

[Pete S]

Any builders out there or want a job? Or give me a bit of advice?

We've got this loft which is completely wasted, only half of it is boarded, I was thinking about getting boarding put down up there so we can use the rest of it.  Also, I was also thinking of maybe getting it converted into some kind of bedroom for Sam.  Is there anyway out there who could do the boarding job, obviously I'll pay the going rate, and give me advice on what else we could do with it?  Seeing as I've had the roof fixed I might as well carry on with the home improvements except I can't knock in a nail, let alone board a loft!
cheers

Pete,  you may need to look into the regulations if you're thinking of using it as a bedroom.  It may need a permanent staircase installing, and a Velux window or two, depending on the floor area.  Easy enough to board it out for extra storage, but if it's used as a living space I'd seek professional advice.

Yes have had some mate and it's not going to be doable, haven't got the money, the kid'll have to sleep in the garage instead :-)
