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 Newry
Will I get a written quote for work in Newry?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Can a landlord in Newry book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Is loft work in Newry 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 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.
