WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF AN ATTIC LADDER?

An attic ladder is a convenient retractable or fold-down ladder installed in a home's ceiling, typically in the hallway, garage or laundry. Attic ladders provide easy access to the roof space, eliminating the need for fetching a stepladder or other climbing equipment. There are many benefits to installing an attic ladder, including increased safety and increased storage space, such as:

Safer:

Safety is a primary concern when accessing the attic space. Climbing on a stepladder or other piece of furniture can be dangerous, especially if the ladder is not positioned correctly. An attic ladder eliminates this risk by providing a stable, easy-to-use platform for accessing the attic. In addition, many attic ladders now come equipped with handrails and safety gates to reduce the risk of injury further.

Easy to use:

Attic ladders are very easy to use, even for those not particularly handy. Most attic ladders can be opened and closed with just one hand, making it quick and easy to access your roof space when needed.

Increased storage space:

An attic ladder can free up valuable storage space in your home as it allows you to store and easily access items in the roof space that would otherwise take up valuable space elsewhere. Seasonal items or holiday decorations are some of the many things you make like to store in your roof cavity.

Added value to your home:

Lastly, an attic ladder adds value to your home by increasing its usable space. Potential buyers will see the added storage space as a valuable asset. 

WHERE IS THE BEST LOCATION TO INSTALL AN ATTIC LADDER?

The location is one of the most important considerations when installing an attic ladder. The ladder should be installed in an area that is both aesthetically pleasing and practical.

If you plan on using your roof ladder to access stored items in the ceiling space, the ladder should be installed in a part of the house where there is ample space in the roof cavity above. Having a ladder opening into a cramped section of the roof cavity will serve you no favours.

As the ladder assembly is large, it will need to be installed in a location where ample space exists between the ceiling joists and other structural members.

All Sorts Of Jobs can guide you on where to install the ladder for maximum safety and accessibility.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO INSTALL AN ATTIC LADDER?

When choosing an attic ladder, you must consider your budget, home look, and personal preferences. The cost of installing an attic ladder will depend on a number of factors, including the type and size of ladder you choose, the location of the ladder and any additional safety features you require. With so many options on the market, All Sorts Of Jobs can assist you in finding the perfect ladder for your needs and provide a free quote for your approval before any work starts.

WHAT THINGS SHOULD I NOT STORE IN MY ROOF CAVITY?

One of the most important things to consider when installing a roof ladder is what you will be storing in your ceiling cavity. While it may seem like a great place to keep extra belongings that you don't have room for elsewhere, there are a few things that you should avoid storing in your attic.

Some of the things to not store in your roof cavity include:

• Wooden furniture
• Antiques 
• Batteries 
• Fuel/petrol
• Fire extinguishers 
• Electronic items 
• Books
• Important paper documents 
• Candles or other wax objects 
• Anything wool (or made from natural fibres) 
• Musical instruments 
• Cardboard boxes 
• Leather products 
• Anything that is highly flammable
• Paints
• Art supplies
• Cleaning products
• Cosmetics
• Medication
• Food
  

DO YOU CUT CEILING JOISTS TO INSTALL AN ATTIC LADDER?

No, we do not cut ceiling joists to install an attic ladder, nor do we cut any structural members in your ceiling space. Our attic ladder installation services are minimally invasive, so we only make the necessary cuts to install the ladder itself. Usually, we will need to cut out some ceiling battens, but the ceiling is reinforced again during the installation. A 100% satisfaction guarantee backs our attic ladder installation services, so you can rest assured that you're making the best decision for your home.

We look forward to helping you take full advantage of your roof space! Contact us today to learn more about our attic ladder installation services.

HOW SAFE ARE ATTIC LADDERS?

After installing an attic ladder, many homeowners enjoy the extra storage space that an easy-to-access ceiling cavity provides.

However, it is essential to note that attic ladders are not without their risks. If they are not installed properly, they can be unstable and may collapse. In addition, climbing up and down a ladder can be dangerous, mainly if the rungs are slippery. For these reasons, it is vital to choose the most suitable ladder for your needs, ensuring that an attic ladder is installed correctly and regularly inspected for any signs of wear or damage.

By taking these precautions, you can help ensure that your attic ladder is safe and reliable for many years.

COMBINE YOUR NEW ATTIC LADDER WITH ROOF SPACE INSTALLED FLOORING AND STORAGE

Most people think of their roof cavity as a dark, dusty place where rodents and reptiles can sometimes live. However, your roof space can be so much more than that.

With the help of a professional attic ladder installation by All Sorts Of Jobs, you can turn your attic into a functional storage space. You can make the most of your roof space by combining your new attic ladder with flooring and storage solutions and some lighting installed by an electrician.

We can assist with installing boards and flooring in the roof cavity immediately surrounding the ladder's entrance so that you will have a flat, spacious and highly functional storage area up there. And, when you hire fastidious carpenters at All Sorts Of Jobs, you can be sure that we will install both the flooring and the ladder safely and securely.
