Del and Jason did a fantastic job on this fitting for a very happy customer in Biggleswade.
They installed the following over a day in order to create safe and easy access into and around the loft.
⭐ WOODEN LOFT LADDER ⭐
The Wooden Ladders are a very popular ladder for a number of reasons, some of which are stated below:
⭐ They have the wide wooden treads which makes if feel more sturdy when climbing the ladder.
⭐ When folded into the loft the ladder sits on top of the hatch which means that it doesn’t take up any additional storage space in the loft.
⭐ As the hatch is lowered the ladder lowers with it bringing it down to a more accessible height in order to fully extend it to the floor and vice versa when raising it back into the loft.
⭐ The hatch is insulated and sealed of which helps with the homes energy efficiency.
⭐ The Wooden Ladder is installed with a handrail of which gives aid when climbing the ladder.
⭐ BOARDING ⭐
The Boarding is a great way of utilizing the loft’s previously unusable space into a great area to store items on of which is also safe to walk on. The boarding is installed in lines (rather than staggered), they are installed on top of the track system of which are set out for the boarding to be laid in lines. This also helps should the customer need to get below the boarding they can raise approximately 5 boards rather than all of the boarding if it was to be staggered.
⭐ INSULATION ⭐
The loft insulation is installed with 100mm running between the joists and 170mm running at 90 degrees to the 100mm – bringing it to the recommended 270mm. Laying it as such correctly stops thermal bridging. The insulation is a great way to help with the home’s energy efficiency helping the home to feel warmer during winter and cooler in the summer.
Loft Insulation should be one of the first measures to consider before upgrading or installing Solar Panels, Heat Source Pumps and Boilers. The insulation will help with your Energy Performance Rating (EPC).
Well done team.
