Glen has just enlarged and replaced my loft hatch and fitted a telescopic loft ladder. Glen was respectful, polite, honest and put me at ease from the first survey. On the day of the work taking place he arrived at the time stated and was very professional. I am so happy with the outcome, with how clean he left the area and with how thorough he was at demonstrating the new hatch and ladders. He made sure I wasn't left with any unanswered questions. I am extremely happy with the standard of the work and I would highly recommend Glen to anyone needing loft work

Loft Hatch Replaced & Telescopic Ladder Installed

We recently had the pleasure of having Glen fit our new insulated loft hatch and telescopic loft ladder. He arrived on time and was very professional and tidy. He took his time and didn't rush the job like some do, even staying on after fitting to demonstrate how to use and answer any questions we may have. From the very start when providing us with the free quote, he explained the costs and amount of work required, and on completion there were no hidden extra costs. He was a very respectful and polite worker and we would definitely consider him for any of our loft needs in future. We are extremely happy with the standard of the work completed and would highly recommend Glen to anyone needing loft work.

Helpful advice and good work in replacing an unsuitable loft ladder
Customer Service
Quality
Value
Our old loft ladder was not suitablle for an elderly person to safely use and we wanted a replacement. Glen visited and advised us on the type of loft ladder a suitable fit for our loft, keeping in mind that a roof joist above the loft opening limited the type of ladder that could be installed. We wanted a ladder that is easy to lower and put back in place, with a reasonable width and not heavy for an elderly person to use. Glen advised us on a suitable ladder. The existing loft opening had to be made larger which Glen did competently and fitted wood trim in the ceiling around the opening to leave it looking good. Glen put in almost a full day's work and we are pleased with the outcome

Glen provided a first class service from initial survey and quote to completion of works. My original loft hatch was placed in a very awkward position hanging over the banister and stairs. Glen explained my options thoroughly and came up with the best solution. I had my loft hatch enlarged and telescopic ladders fitted. I also had an area in the loft boarded out. Glen was punctual, hard working and nothing was ever a problem. His workmanship is fantastic. He takes pride in his work and is very tidy. Thank you for creating an amazing storage space for us which is now easily accessible.

Glen was brilliant from start to finish. Glen gave us a quote on topping up our insulation and loft boarding, he explained in full detail what the job consisted of and the quote contained no hidden extras and wasn't pushy whatsoever. The work was carried out on the agreed schedule. He was punctual, polite, very tidy worker. Would definitely recommend Glen and wouldn't hesitate to call on him again.

It can be a minefield these days trying to find a reliable tradesperson, but Glen was brilliant. The work has been completed to a perfect standard, exactly as agreed upon and all on time. All my questions/ requests for quote adjustments were responded to very promptly, and all emails & details were clear. Glen was professional throughout - from first survey to hoovering up at the end of the job, and was always polite and respectful of our home. There was no pushy sales tactics, just years of experience and advice on what could be suitable for our needs. He took extra care when moving around the house, checking where our (occasionally adventurous) Labrador was before opening or closing doors, which was greatly appreciated. I would be happy to recommend Access4Lofts - Southend On Sea.

Glen was absolutely fantastic. From start to finish he was punctual, polite and happy. When quoting he explained everything clearly without being condescending or pushy and was very prompt in responding to all messages. He arrived on time and stuck to the scheduled 1.5 day install. We left him with a key and he even messaged when he left assuring everything was locked. He explained the easiest way to get up and down on the ladder and even showed us. Would 100% recommend Glen to anyone!

Amazing Workmanship

Glen was very polite and professional from the start. He was always punctual for his appointments and arrived with a smile on his face! When he originally came to quote for the works, he explained my options clearly in a way that I could understand and discussed the pricing differences. I did not feel that at any point he was being pushy or focussing on "making a hard sell" He adjusted the quote once I changed my mind and agreed a suitable date which worked well with myself and my family requirements. He was always respectful of my property and kept the area clean and tidy and protected my carpets. As I have a house-cat and a small crawling baby, he ensured the door was always safely closed when entering / exiting the property. He kept to the agreed timescale of 1.5 days and he worked very hard throughout. He noticed there was an imperfection with the loft ladder he was installing and replaced it. The overall quality of work in the loft is amazing. It has allowed me to have so much more storage space in my house. The work looks high quality and made to last. After he had finished, he gave me a full demonstration of how the loft ladder worked and ensured I was satisfied with his workmanship. I am so happy that I went with Glen to carry out these works.

Loft Boarding for Storage Space
Customer Service
Quality

The work carried out was to add loft boarding for additional storage space. Prior to the work starting Glen gave us a full run through of all available options which really helped us decide what we actually required. Glen arrived promptly each morning and worked tirelessly despite the very warm weather. The quality of the work is superb, a real attention to detail and a real sense of workmanship in the job carried out and we couldn’t be happier. It’s a real game changer in terms of storage in our house and I would recommend this to anyone who has storage issues and in particular Glen who took great pride in the works carried out. Glen was very professional, polite and a really great guy and it was pleasure having him working in our house. This addition to our home will be enjoyed for many years to come. Thanks Glen!!

Glen called within a day of requesting a quote online. He called to the property within a couple of days. He gave me a written quote, no pressure. Very professional, on time. He fitted a loft ladder a couple of weeks later. Again, on time. Tidy, professional and no questions too much trouble. I have now booked him to board the loft out completely. Very happy with service and price.

Glen carried out the work which he quoted me for several weeks ago. Time delay between quote and work completed was my choice not company's. Work carried out and completed today as planned. Glen ( workman) was very friendly, polite and professional. Left everything clean and tidy. Glen demonstrated to me how everything works and then guided me to ensure I felt confident, and safe to use the ladder. Definitely recommend this company.

Glen made our loft hatch bigger, installed a wooden ladder and boarded out half our loft. He gave us by far the best quote we received and also was such a great guy. I would highly recommend and will definitely be using him again for the other half of our loft. The work he carried out is top quality.

Very happy with the work done by Glen. From getting the quote in the first instance, he was polite and informative throughout. He answered all my questions and completed the work on time an on budget. The loft was previously part-boarded and, having discussed the options with Glen, we had it raised, fully boarded and shelves installed. We have increased the amount of storage space by four times, at least! Throughout the job, Glen was considerate and helpful. Would happily recommend him and his workmanship to friends and family. There were no hidden surprises with the cost either. The job was quoted for and that was the price we paid. The work was completed in 2.5 days - which was exactly as promised.

Glen visited to carry out the survey for our Loft ladder and new hatch, I couldn't be at home, but my wife met Glen and was very pleased with how professional, friendly and polite he was. 2 weeks after agreeing the quote Glen arrived today at exactly the time that was agreed and carried out the install. Work was carried out without a hitch and for the price agreed even though there were some level discrepancies. No mess left at all, if Glen hadn't of given me the demonstration of the loft ladder I wouldn't have known he had been. I would highly recommend Glen from Access4Lofts without a second thought.

What Glen describes about his work is exactly what he does. The whole process was so easy, from me contacting the admin team initially, to the work being completed by Glen. Glen was professional, polite, and took time to explain when I wasn't quite sure what he was trying to convey. For such a messy job he worked extremely cleanly. I have no hesitation in recommending Glen if you need your loft hatch moved to a different part of the ceiling.

Glen recently boarded our loft, fitting a new hatch and ladder at the same time. When he initially surveyed our loft space he paid great attention to our requirements, breaking down our quote into multiple options so we could make the right decision for our needs and budget. When work started, Glen was always on time, working efficiently and tidily, ensuring the safety of my family and pets throughout and always maintaining a friendly disposition. I am extremely happy with the end result, and would not hesitate to recommend Glen to anyone looking to have loft work done!
