No pressure selling
You get everything in writing and decide in your own time.

Questions about a loft ladder in Penicuik
What do I need to do before you arrive in Penicuik?
Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.
Can a landlord in Penicuik book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Do you charge extra to travel to Penicuik?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Penicuik. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
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.
