Delivery
Loft panels are heavy and need to be shipped on a pallet. Therefore, we will only send panels bought on this website to mainland England, Wales, Ireland and southern Scotland, and we charge a flat shipping cost of £40, for up to 51 packs (153 boards). If you live elsewhere or want to order more than 51 packs, then please contact us for a delivery quote.
Also, if you are ordering a LoftZone StoreFloor or StoreFloor Compact kit or parts at the same time as these boards, for which postage is £12, then we put these kits or parts on the same pallet, so effectively you are only paying £28 extra for the boards delivery.
Finally, the tongue (the part that sticks out) of these panels is strong when inserted into the next board but can be a little bit fragile in transit and can occasionally get damaged. If you go to a DIY store, you will see that about 10% of the tongues on their loft board panels have some damage. We pack our boards much more securely than they do, but if some have minor damage on the tongue upon arrival, then please be assured that this will not affect the strength or appearance of the overall floor, since the tongue is hidden inside the groove and cannot be seen once installed.

Quality, including surface finish, is generally good. Dimensions are a problem. Why couldn’t they be made 310mm wide (including tounge) or 300 wide net so that two could be fitted between trusses at 600mm centres (like the Eco Boards)? Length can also vary up to 1230mm, requiring some cutting if trying to match adjacent boards. Delivery company (Gregory) may not call before delivery, even if asked to.

The boards are OK, but their width is not 320 mm. This is the total width including the tongue and groove, and of course these fit into each other. When assembled, the width of a board is 310 mm.
