Complete Replacement — Every Step Included

A proper attic ladder replacement isn’t just swapping the ladder. Each of the following steps must be given proper attention to ensure functionality, safety, and a finished aesthetic.

  1. Select the right ladder (material preferences, opening dimensions, ceiling height)
  2. Remove finish trim
  3. Disassembly and disposal of old ladder — heavy, handled carefully to protect your property
  4. Area clean-up
  5. Verification of framing integrity — often overlooked, existing framing may need repairs or reinforcement
  6. Installation of new ladder with proper alignment, squared and level per manufacturer’s instructions and recommended fasteners
  7. Replace trim. Caulk. Due to small dimensional differences in ladders and cracks/breakage during removal, we recommend replacing trim.
  8. Add expansive insulating foam around the ladder frame. Check seals.
  9. Paint/touch-up
  10. Clean working area, dispose of all trash, boxes, vacuum

As you consider replacing your attic ladder, please evaluate the steps above. Not giving each step proper attention can result in an inadequate installation and jeopardize functionality, safety, and/or aesthetics.
