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. The frame is sealed to the ceiling and the trims are finished ready for painting. More about an insulated loft hatch.

The price on the quote is the price you pay. It only changes if you change the job, or if we find something hidden, such as rot, and you agree the change in writing first.
We measure before we quote
Existing depth, joist spacing, wiring and the tank are checked, not guessed.

Questions about an insulated loft hatch in Oakham
Do you take on jobs outside Oakham?
Yes. We also work in Uppingham and elsewhere in Rutland.
Can a landlord in Oakham book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Will I get a written quote for work in Oakham?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
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.
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.
