Why book with us in Catford
Tidy work
Dust sheets on the route in and every bit of packaging taken away.
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.
Photos of the finished loft
You see the work done without climbing the ladder.
How much does a loft ladder cost in Catford?
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 Catford
Can a landlord in Catford book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Is loft work in Catford 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.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Catford?
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.
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.
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.
