Storage in Roof Cavity

Attic Conversions, Attic Ladders, Attic Storage, Attic Ventilation, Attic Windows, Case StudiesSeptember 11, 2017

Having just purchased their new home, these homeowners were conducting some renovations of the home before they moved in. During the renovation process they quickly established that they were going to face the common ‘lack of storage’ issue many inner city suburb homeowners face. Following some research on storage ideas, they came across the ‘attic’ concept. Although not a new concept in Queensland, transforming the wasted roof space into a usable storage or even living area, is often not thought of and therefore a less likely considered renovation project. Further, it is also a common misconception that attic storage is not possible if the home has ducted air conditioning.
