What is a loft ladder?
The ladder has to suit the floor-to-ceiling height, the hatch size and the space on the landing where it lands. Ladders with an integrated insulated hatch are the neatest option because they replace the old hatch completely. More about a loft ladder.

How much does a loft ladder cost in Durham?
This work is not an energy-saving material for VAT, so it is standard-rated if VAT applies. Where it is done alongside insulation, the quote shows each part separately.
Building regulations in England
In England, a loft insulated across more than half its area should reach a U-value of 0.16 W/m²K. Insulation alone is not usually notified to building control. How the rules work across the UK.
Questions about a loft ladder in Durham
Do you charge extra to travel to Durham?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Durham. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do you take on jobs outside Durham?
Yes. We also work in Spennymoor and Chester-le-Street and elsewhere in County Durham.
Can a landlord in Durham 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 fit a loft light at the same time?
We can arrange it. A new lighting circuit is notifiable electrical work, so we use a registered electrician.
What size hatch do I need for a loft ladder?
Most standard ladders need an opening of about 550 by 700 mm or more. We check the model against your hatch before ordering.
