FAQs

Good questions,straight answers.

Do I need to board the whole loft?

No. If you only need to get to the water tank and store a few boxes, a central section is plenty. If you want to move about freely or store heavy things, we can board out as much of it as the roof allows. We’ll advise when we visit.

Will loft boarding damage my insulation?

Not the way we do it. The boards sit on raised timbers, above the insulation rather than on top of it, so it stays at full depth and keeps working.

How much does a loft ladder cost?

Supplied and fitted from £189 for a Spacemaker aluminium ladder, £229 for an Easiway and £495 for a Telesteps telescopic. Hatch work is quoted on top if you need it, and the quote is free.

Can you move or enlarge my loft hatch?

Yes. From a simple enlargement to moving it to another room, we’ll look at what’s up there and advise on what works with your roof and ceiling.

How long does it take?

Most lofts take a day or two. One customer had hatch, ladder, insulation, light and boarding all finished in seven hours, though every loft is different and we’ll give you a realistic time when we quote.

Do you do loft conversions?

No. We specialise in boarding, ladders, hatches, insulation and loft windows, so we can do those really well.
