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.

Why book with us in Tavistock
Plain-English advice
We explain what we find in plain English, and say so when nothing needs doing.
Fixed written price
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.
No pressure selling
You get everything in writing and decide in your own time.
How much does a loft ladder cost in Tavistock?
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 Tavistock
Do you take on jobs outside Tavistock?
Yes. We also work in Plymouth and Okehampton and elsewhere in Devon.
Do you charge extra to travel to Tavistock?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Tavistock. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Is loft work in Tavistock 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.
How long does it take to fit a loft ladder?
Two to four hours into a suitable hatch. Half a day or more if the opening is enlarged.
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.
