Is this the same as wax oil?

 

No idea would use underseal  on the front might look an eyesore

Blakes for me for the price,ecco lofts looked similar quality but much more expensive but if them six numbers come up then id have a barnsley loft super quality.

I thought this was a decent loft for the money delivered treated and erected from Blakes :-/

I have just bought a shed from Ecco built to my own design.

 

I would recommend them to anybody, real nice guys.

Out of interest I asked 2 different loft builders at the show for a price for a 24 x 8ft, in 4 sections with corridor. Blakes were £3,2oo less than Barnsley Lofts :-/ worth while shopping around

 

Blakes £1,800 delivered and errected

Barnsley £4,900 for loft and £180 delivery and erection :-/

Both pent roofed

Dont know the price but the best loft for me was Tranter lofts 8)

dont know but the lofts with the sterling boards for a roof whats that about thats what spoils them  also think the floors where 2ft centres  no way more than 18 inch  not good value

not for me thats for sure

I got a blakes loft a few years ago and would never get another one :'( every time the rain changed direction I was out with the silicon gun a year of respiratory problems and the air was never right, got them out to fix the problems but was never right, the best thing I done was get rid of it > > >

This is one of the problems with using 12mm T&G, were as Tranter use 19mm as standard.

Tranter was the best lofts of all a couple of year ago,

Seeing a show loft at Blackpool or anywhere else is one thing - will you get the same quality of materials when you buy one? A bit like these large furniture stores really when you choose something in the showroom and then have to wait weeks for one to be delivered. Tranter for me every time.

Before i got the brick shed built i got prices for a 24 x 12 tiled loft from various places, prices were (roughly, none including erection):

 

Petron - £9,000, plus fittings and tiles (slates) (est £1200) and £1000 delivery.

Barnsley - £6,800, plus £650 delivery, and included fittings and slates.

Ecco lofts - £4,800 including fittings, no tiles, i had to arrange delivery.

Another company, cant remember name but west mids, around £7,000 for not a lot really lol!!

 

Happy with what i got, wont blow away and very good for controlling ventilation!
