Frequently Asked Questions About Attic Ladder Installation
Who installs attic ladders?
Attic ladders are commonly installed by experienced handymen or carpenters who understand ceiling framing, proper sizing, and safe installation. A1 Handyman installs attic ladders and attic stairs for homeowners throughout Boise and the Treasure Valley.
How long does it take to install an attic ladder?
Most attic ladder installations are completed in 3 to 5 hours, depending on your ceiling structure and the type of ladder. Our goal is to get the job done efficiently and safely with minimal disruption to your home.
Can you remove my old attic ladder and install a new one?
Yes. We regularly remove old, damaged, or unsafe attic ladders and replace them with new, properly fitted units. Replacement is often faster than a brand-new installation.
Can you create a new attic access if I don’t have one?
Absolutely. If you don’t have existing attic access, we can cut and frame a new opening in your ceiling, install proper supports, and fit a new attic ladder with care and precision.
What types of attic ladders do you install?
We install a wide variety of attic ladders, including folding, telescoping, wood, and aluminum models. We’ll help you choose the best attic ladder for your ceiling height, space, and usage needs.
Do you offer attic ladder repairs too?
Yes, we do! We can often repair loose hinges, damaged steps, or misaligned doors. However, for older ladders or safety concerns, we may recommend a full replacement.
Will installing an attic ladder affect my home’s insulation?
We use attic ladders with insulated doors and weather stripping to minimize energy loss. If needed, we can also add additional insulation or recommend sealing upgrades to keep your attic access energy-efficient.
Do I need to supply the attic ladder, or can you provide one?
Either option works! You’re welcome to purchase your own attic ladder, or we can help you choose and supply a high-quality model that’s properly sized and suited for your home. We’re happy to assist with pickup and delivery as well.
Can you add flooring in my attic?
Yes, we can! If your attic structure supports it, we can install attic flooring to create safe, usable storage space. We’ll inspect the area to ensure proper joist spacing and support, then install durable, secure flooring designed for attic use. It’s a great way to maximize your home's storage potential.
Do you install loft ladders?
Yes. We install loft ladders and ensure they are properly fitted for safe access. If you’re searching for loft ladder installers near you in the Boise area, our team can help.
