What Wigan lofts usually need
46% of Wigan’s housing is semi-detached. In older semis the hatch is often small; we can enlarge it for a ladder.
27% of homes in Wigan are terraced. Terrace lofts are small, so full-depth insulation is quick; a strip of raised boarding by the hatch is often all the storage there’s room for.
Before quoting, we measure the size of the hatch and where a ladder would land, whether the roof is trussed or traditional and how much is stored up there now. Then every part goes in the quote with its own price.
