This really is exactly that, an example. Its purpose is to give you a guideline figure for the cost of the work that we do. When quoting we tend to use the example package as a starting point and adjust it according to the individual needs of the client. The area described in this package is approximately the average size of an installation
This package comes at a cost of £950 and would be completed in one day.
To resize the hatch opening and install the uPVC Style (HIP) hatch unit adds £110.
To upgrade to the three section, easy stow loft ladder adds £90.
We will raise the floor level by fixing 100mm bearers and relay any existing insulation. We will then fix timber floor boards to the 100mm bearers.
Most customers choose to floor a section of the loft in the centre where there is most height.
The floorboards are fixed using a pneumatic nail gun, which eliminates any percussion, thereby reducing the possibility of plaster plugs being knocked out on the ceiling below. The bearers are fixed to the joists or trusses using 80mm screws.
The MDF door will be fitted to the existing hatch opening and a twist catch fitted to secure it in the closed position. All the ladders include a stow pole which is used to operate the twist catch and then to draw the ladder down and stow it away.
