Our Attic Ladder Installation & Replacement Services
Replacing an attic ladder requires accurate measurements, proper framing, and careful installation. Our technicians begin with a full assessment of your current ladder and attic opening. This helps us determine the right replacement model and confirms that the surrounding structure can support the installation.
If you approve our estimate and project scope, we get to work removing the old ladder. This involves carefully detaching the existing unit without damaging the ceiling or surrounding trim.
The final step is to install the new ladder by carefully aligning and securely mounting it at the attic opening. We then test the ladder to make sure it opens smoothly, closes flush with the ceiling, and feels sturdy underfoot.
