Questions about a loft ladder in Rickmansworth
Do you cover all of WD3?
Yes, we cover the WD3 postcode district and the districts around Rickmansworth.
Do you take on jobs outside Rickmansworth?
Yes. We also work in Watford and Hemel Hempstead and elsewhere in Hertfordshire.
Is loft work in Rickmansworth 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.
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.
