The team installed a new loft hatch and ladder, removed old insulation, removed a mountain of spray foam debris, installed good quality new insulation and boarded out an area of loft space.

I asked John to part board the loft to enable an installer to fit a new shower part for the bathroom below. He responded very quickly and after agreeing the quote fitted the job in within a week of his first visit. He carried out the work quickly but with care and attention and was very tidy after he had completed the work. I would recommend him and his company for any loft work and found him friendly and easy to do business with.

I recently called this company for a quote between Xmas and New Year, I met with John who called and said he could attend a visit to our home on the 31st December. When John arrived I immedialty knew I had called the right company his honesty and professionlism shone through straightaway, we agreed a price for his company to clear my old insulation and to reboard throughout the middle of the loft as I wasnt able to store in this area, we agreed a price and a date, his team arrived on the 13th Jan and delivered exactly to the quote, quality company highly recommend

Never pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
