Fixing Things in the House Yourself?

Fixing Things in the House Yourself?

What about your attic? 

 

Your attic faces a lot of challenges. If not properly insulated, it becomes a space in your home at the mercy of extreme weather conditions and will transmit those extremes to the rest of your house.

It can be a ‘home’ for pests like rats, opossums, and raccoons who do physical damage and spread disease.

There may be deterioration due to water leaks, which also promotes the spread of deadly molds.

So, what do you need to do? Well, if you’re like most people, you’ll call a trust-worthy insulation company like Insulation Plus, to insulate your attic. If you have a pest infestation, you call pest control. If you have a leak, you call a plumber. If mold has formed, you call a company that has ‘mold remediation’ as one of its specialties like Bio-One.

But you’re not like most people, are you?  You like to tinker, to fix things yourself. However, if you want to do these things safely, you must equip yourself with the right tools.

An attic can be a dangerous place. The spaces are cramped. You may accidentally put your foot through a ceiling tile. Slip and falls may occur if the area is damp. The hazards are many.

The best preventative tool is the Original AtticBoard

In many cases, the home services companies use unwieldly plywood boards that are prone to splintering and other wear and tear that may become hazardous with time. The reason they do that is to create an ‘attic catwalk’ so they can have a stable ‘floor’ to move about and to work more efficiently.

However, as alluded to before, they are cumbersome, and can be dangerous. The Original AtticBoard is far more advanced. And it can be navigated easily and safely within the attic.

This attic safety product is designed exclusively for your greatest protection and productivity. It is versatile in its usage as well. The AtticBoard creates a secure safety platform upon which you can stand, kneel, crouch, sit, or lay down to facilitate multiple different types of tasks.

The security comes from the dimensions of the Attic Platform that is designed to fit snugly over two 24-inch on-center joists or three 16-inch on-center joists lengthwise. It may also span two 16-inch on-center joists widthwise.

The AtticBoard also offers much greater strength than the older wooden type. It is composed of a polymer blend that withstands the extreme temperatures at attic is predisposed to. The attic safety board is so strong that it can hold up to 700 pounds! You don’t have to submit yourself to dangerous activities such as trying to balance on joists.

So, you like doing things yourself. Very admirable to have those skills. You owe it to yourself to have greater job efficiency, ease of use, and keeping yourself safe.

The Original AtticBoard meets your every need. It is exactly what it's name says - The AtticBoard is a attic walkboard and attic safety platform, to make your attic work much safer.
