From £110 fixed, two operatives as standard, one in the loft and one on the ladder and ground floor, which is how a loft clear stays safe rather than a one-person job with a rope and a prayer Insured fitters, every fixing torqued, and the flat-pack packaging taken away.
Overview
Booked mostly by renter-heavy households around Hounslow Central, loft and attic clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £110. With 43% of Hounslow's 18,207 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in TW3 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
Hatch size, ladder access and joist boarding assessed from photos or a quick visit, since these decide the crew size and time far more than the loft's floor area.
Step 2
Where joists are unboarded, boards go down first so nobody puts a foot through a bedroom ceiling reaching for the last box.
Step 3
Passed hand to hand through the hatch and sorted at ground level into keep, donate, recycle and dispose.
Step 4
Cold water tanks disconnected and lowered in sections; disturbed insulation bagged; any suspected asbestos left untouched and referred for testing.
Step 5
A visual check for vermin or water damage before the hatch is closed, with photographs sent the same day.
Why choose us
Two operatives as standard, one in the loft and one on the ladder and ground floor, which is how a loft clear stays safe rather than a one-person job with a rope and a prayer. Pedestrianised high street with timed access; new blocks need booked lifts.
Two to three days as standard, next day for a straightforward boarded loft with easy hatch access. Hounslow Central (Piccadilly) is the nearest station, so a TW3 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect solid London stock brick in TW3, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — where 43% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in TW3, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — measured on the walk in from Hounslow Central (Piccadilly) rather than assumed from a map.
Registered waste carrier. Loose-fill insulation and any tank contents are bagged and disposed of separately from general household waste. Suspected asbestos is never disturbed — it is referred to a licensed testing specialist.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Partial loft clear, boxes and light storage | £110 | 1–1.5 hrs | Items passed down through the hatch by hand, which is why loft work is priced by carry time rather than by volume alone. |
| Full loft clearance, standard hatch | £190 | 1.5–2.5 hrs | A full clear of a standard loft, including anything wedged between joists or pushed to the eaves where crawling is needed. |
| Restricted hatch or no boarding, full clear | £240 | 2–3 hrs | A small hatch or unboarded joists slows the carry considerably and needs crawl boards laid before anyone can move safely between the trusses. |
| Cold water tank removal | £85 | 45–60 min | Tanks are drained, disconnected and lowered in sections through the hatch, which is plumbing-adjacent work rather than a straightforward carry. |
| Disturbed loose-fill insulation, bagged and removed | £120 | 1–1.5 hrs | Loose-fill insulation has to be bagged as it is disturbed to stop it drifting through the house, and disposed of separately from general waste. |
| Suspected asbestos material, survey and quote only | On inspection | By arrangement | Any suspected asbestos board, lagging or Artex is left untouched and referred to a licensed specialist for testing before a price can be given. |

Scope

Expect solid London stock brick in TW3, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — where 43% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year behind the plaster in TW3. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — measured on the walk in from Hounslow Central (Piccadilly) rather than assumed from a map is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows Hounslow knows the pattern near Hounslow Heath: a long pedestrianised high street, the heath and airport-adjacent housing. We plan the TW3 visit around it. Hounslow is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, pedestrianised high street with timed access; new blocks need booked lifts — one reason two operatives as standard, one in the loft and one on the ladder and ground floor, which is how a loft clear stays safe rather than a one-person job with a rope and a prayer.

With 43% of Hounslow homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on this side of Hounslow — and 21% one-person households here, with Hounslow parking rules in play, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.

Testing or removal of suspected asbestos-containing material, referred to a licensed specialist; Loft boarding, insulation top-up or any building works following the clearance; Pest control treatment where an active infestation is found, referred to a specialist rather than disturbed; Structural work to widen a hatch or fit a loft ladder on the Hounslow rounds — and 43% owner-occupation locally, with 43% of homes here being flats, which is a carpentry job priced separately.
