Hi,
I am trying to board my loft after the insulation has been topped up.
Using the cross batton method with extra joist to allow for extra insulation.
I am using 38mm w x 89mm h joists but cannot find joist hangers suitable that will make the new joist level with the other joist i am hanging it off, they are all to tall which makes my new joist not level with the other!!!
Hope this makes sense:o
