Do you choose an aluminium or wooden loft ladder for your home in Stratford-upon-Avon?

Potential customers often ask our advice on which loft ladder to choose and we are always happy to discuss the options. But the perfect choice depends on budget and purpose.

We fit three types of tried and tested, fixed loft ladders for our customers in Stratford-upon-Avon and the surrounding area.

Aluminium is the most popular option and we fit dozens of them each year. They are the most cost-effective ladder we fit, but they are also the most popular because they offer a combination of strength and stability with the lightness of aluminium, making them easy to pull into place and stow.

If space is tight, then a telescopic ladder might be the right choice for you. A telescopic loft ladder is perfect if there is no stowage space in the loft or if you have a limited area underneath. Surprisingly sturdy and totally secure once locked into place, we fit these ladders regularly in period properties such as terraces and cottages.

The third loft ladder we offer is in timber. A wooden fixed ladder has wide, sturdy treads and is a good choice if you are carrying heavy items into the loft. Many customers also choose timber for aesthetic reasons, simply preferring the look of timber.

We are always happy to advise on what is the best option for your home and budget. You can email us at  stuart@stusloftladders.co.uk or call/text 07712 327 889.
