Loft organised so it's actually usable storage instead of a chaos zone. Sort what you've got, arrange it properly, create walkways, label everything.
### From Dumping Ground to Usable Storage
Loft's basically a **3D game of Tetris** where nothing fits and you can't remember what's where. Boxes stacked dangerously, insulation showing through, can't walk anywhere without stepping through the ceiling.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Don't store anything valuable or sentimental in cardboard boxes in the loft. They get damp, collapse, mice get in. Proper plastic storage boxes cost a bit more but last for decades.

### Why Lofts Get Chaotic
It's easy storage until it becomes unusable storage.
| Common Loft Problems | Impact | |---------------------|---------| | No system - just chuck it up there | Can't find anything | | Boxes unlabelled or labels faded | No idea what's in most boxes | | Stuff piled on insulation | Insulation compressed, house is colder | | No walkways | Can't access half of it safely | | Mix of keep/chuck/forgotten | Wasting space on things you'd bin if you found them |

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Installing loft boards?** Makes a massive difference for storage. Protects insulation, creates safe walkways, gives you a proper storage platform. I can fit loft boards as part of the organisation job. **Damp issues?** If stuff's damp or boxes are collapsing, you might have a ventilation or leak issue. I'll spot it while organising and advise what needs fixing. **Regular users?** If you access your loft often (seasonal decorations, camping gear), consider a proper loft ladder instead of the rickety one. Makes getting stuff up and down much safer and easier.
Frequently Asked Questions about Loft organisation in Teignmouth
What does loft organisation involve?
Depends what you've got up there! Usually: bring everything down or group it in the loft, sort into keep/donate/bin, organise what's staying into logical groups, create proper storage areas with walkways, label boxes clearly. Can take 2-4 hours depending on how much stuff.
Do I need to be there or can you do it alone?
You need to be around for the sorting - deciding what to keep, chuck, or donate. The physical organisation bit I can do alone. We'll work it out when I arrive - usually you make decisions and I do the heavy lifting and arranging.
Can you advise on loft storage solutions?
Absolutely - loft boards for walkways, proper storage boxes (cardboard goes soggy and collapses), shelving if your loft suits it, how to keep insulation clear of storage areas. I'll tell you what would actually help rather than just selling you stuff.
What if my loft is really full and chaotic?
That's normal! Most lofts are. Worse it is now, bigger the difference you'll notice. We'll get through it systematically - bring stuff down in stages, sort, reorganise. It'll feel like a different loft when we're done.
Can you take stuff to the tip or charity shop?
Yes - I can take donations to charity shops and rubbish to the tip. There's a disposal charge for tip runs (covers my time and tip fees), but often cheaper than hiring a skip for a load of old junk.
