What loft clearance means
Loft clearance is the removal of stored contents and redundant materials from a roof space, including boxes, furniture, old insulation and disused tanks, carried out by a crew working in the loft itself.
The reason lofts stay full is not the rubbish, it is the ladder. Handling boxes down a hatch while balanced on aluminium rungs is how most household back injuries happen, and old fibreglass insulation makes it an unpleasant job on top of a risky one.
Our crew goes up with lighting, masks and gloves, works between the joists and passes everything down. If you are clearing ahead of a loft conversion or a re-insulation, we can strip out old insulation and redundant cold water tanks at the same time.
Key takeaways
- Our crew works in the loft — you do not need to climb or lift anything
- Old fibreglass insulation and redundant tanks removed on the same visit
- Priced by the volume the contents fill in the van
- Hatch area and landing left clean and dust-swept
What is included
- Two operatives with loft lighting, masks and gloves
- Careful handling down the hatch and out through the property
- Floor and stair protection on the route out
- Sweep of the landing and waste transfer note within 24 hours
