Very important when putting attic stairs in, maintain the fire proofing integrity of the sheetrock--same goes for the people who put garage ,solar powered exhaust fans in-- if a fire starts in your garage--the fan will suck flames into your attic---think before you leap

Hills Gutters did our ladder very pleased with the price and the job they did would use the again.
|
Tim the Toolman (Tim Miller 352 217 0561) did ours. Very nice job.

2nd the motion for Tim!

Tim did our garage attic stairs at the same time as our garage floor epoxy job. Great work on both! Oh, and be sure go with the aluminum stairs, too. Bit higher weight rating, but more I importantly, will endure the high attic temps better than wood. Costs a bit more, but worth it. Good luck!! |

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. Wow, so much to do but want to enjoy being here too!🌴😊

We did not put in stairs to the attic. In past homes we found them to be dangerous, not physically but they are an entrance to stored stuff that never reappears. We refer attics as the "black hole".

If I can suggest something: Be sure you have them lay at least 1/2 " to 5/8 " plywood, and not that flake wood, or pressed board in attic. (You want the floor solid) You will be thankful you did. Might be 5-10 bucks more for board, but worth it

I had them in my old house and found them unsteady. And putting boxes up there required a certain amount of strength I no longer have. I don't really have anything to put in my attic so for now it doesn't matter.
I thought when I do want to use that space I would install a block and tackle attached to a drawer smaller than the opening. I could load it up, pull it up and stand on a ladder to push it off. |
Thanks for the continued response. You guys are great. Can't wait to meet all of you!
