Attic flooring

    I was looking to get my attic floored with chipboard/ plywood - husband couldn't be bothered doing it but unsure how much this would cost. It's a standard 3 bed.

    There might be a small bit of wiring and a small plastering job around the attic entrance.

    Does anyone have any idea what pruace range I would be looking at? In Dublin

    Depends on access, the area and how you will try the air ventilation to the existing timber/insulation.

    €1000 at a guess.


    *could be anything really as we done know the size and extent of the work.

    Top-of-the-head figures based on the fact that I did my own attic last weekend is that for the flooring you're looking at around €20 per sq.m.

    That's a cheap flooring, not designed for loads, just designed to make it easy to store stuff up in the attic. And assuming you don't really have to move anything around. A proper floor for using the attic as an office or otherwise as an extra room is a whole other kettle of fish.

    Not sure about the wiring or plastering, really depends on what needs to be done.

    Thanks all, appreciate the replies. I think we underestimated it. Will get proper measurements
