Do you take on jobs outside Ashton-under-Lyne?
Yes. We also work in Dukinfield and Stalybridge and elsewhere in Greater Manchester.
Is loft work in Ashton-under-Lyne 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.

Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Can it be done without removing the plasterboard?
Sometimes the flat ceiling and eaves voids can be reached from behind. The slopes almost always need the boards off to insulate them properly.

Usually three to six working days for one room, depending on how much is stripped and how it is finished.
