Questions about a loft ladder in Bishop's Stortford
Do you take on jobs outside Bishop's Stortford?
Yes. We also work in Ware and Hoddesdon and elsewhere in Hertfordshire.
Is loft work in Bishop's Stortford 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 Bishop's Stortford?
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 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.
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.
