Loft services in St Albans
What St Albans lofts usually need
Semi-detached houses account for 29%. A typical job: top up the old layer to full depth, lay a raised deck and fit a ladder.
About a quarter of homes here are terraces (23%). Older ones may have roofs without felt, which makes airflow at the eaves important.
29% of homes in St Albans are flats. The loft above a top-floor flat usually belongs to the freeholder, so check your lease first.
20% of households rent privately. Landlords can book us; most rental lofts are done in a day with the tenants at home.
Measuring up means looking at whether the eaves are clear, how much is stored up there now and where the tank and pipes sit. Then every part goes in the quote with its own price.
