Questions about an insulated loft hatch in Ballymena
Can you visit Ballymena 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.
Is loft work in Ballymena different from anywhere else?
The method is the same, but older terraces, cottages and newer estates each have their own quirks: lath ceilings, low pitches or trussed roofs. We plan for the loft we find.
Can a landlord in Ballymena book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Can you make my loft hatch bigger?
Yes. We trim the joists, support them and fit a new insulated hatch. It is often done with a loft ladder.
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.
