Questions about an insulated loft hatch in Stowmarket
Is loft work in Stowmarket 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.
