Questions about an insulated loft hatch in Ludlow
Will I get a written quote for work in Ludlow?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
How do I pay for work in Ludlow?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Is loft work in Ludlow 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.
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.
