Cheapest place to get loft boards?
Any suggestions on the beast place to get cheap (but decent quality)
boards for putting some flooring into the loft? What would the rough cost be for a 3 bedroom semi be? Would it work out cheaper to buy larger boards and cut them to size with a jigsaw - I suspect it is better to use proper boards since it would look neater and fit together better, i assume they are tongue and groove? |

B&Q have packs of tongue and groove boards on offer every few months. Come in packs of 3 or 5 boards (I cant remember now), which are something like 3ftx1ft each. Their offer is usually buy 3 get 1 free or similar |

The boards are made in the size they are so they'll fit through your loft hatch comfortably and are manageable. |
