What is an insulated loft hatch?
We fit a new insulated hatch into the existing opening, or enlarge the opening if it is too small to get through safely or to fit a ladder. Where the opening is enlarged, the joists are trimmed and supported properly. More about an insulated loft hatch.

Questions about an insulated loft hatch in Peterborough
What do I need to do before you arrive in Peterborough?
Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.
Can you visit Peterborough outside working hours?
Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Will I get a written quote for work in Peterborough?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Does an insulated loft hatch make much difference?
It closes one of the biggest single gaps in an insulated ceiling. It also cuts the warm, moist air that leaks into the loft and adds to condensation.
Do I need a fire-rated hatch?
In most houses, no. In some flats, three-storey houses and loft conversions the ceiling is part of the fire protection and a fire-rated hatch is needed. We check.
