Guest Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 Hi i'm looking at getting a loft and i'm just wondering if anybody has had a lof from ecco lofts, and whether or not you could tell me if they are any good. thanks
Guest Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 Thanks. i have looked into blakes and got prices from them, they are sending me a brochure out, at the moment i think they are possibly who i'm gonna buy from
PIGEON_MAN Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 I have had 2 8x6s off them over the years and found them to be very good for the price but I understand that it is now new people that have taken the business over and the quality is even better,a mate in our club is going up to Telford next week to have a word with them about ordering a new 24x8.
Guest peter4pm Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 i would go with blakes for quality alone Also its nice to see a girl as young as yourself interested in pigeons ..nice one girly.
Guest Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 Thanks i think we will go for blakes then
Guest peter4pm Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 you do that you wont be dissapointed.
peterpau Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 I have two ecco sheds and my mate has blakes. His blew down and I'm happy with mine thanks.
tjloft Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 I have two 8 x 6 - best has dowells on top half, always dry.
Delboy Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 I have an ecco loft, top loft, good price but put onduline sheets on roof as felt the run wasnt enough. Go for ecco, value for money

Guest stevie-b Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 do not rush any desicion the past 3 years at blackpool john tranters lofts have been real quality i would say get quotes from him also
DUBLINFLYER Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 did you have a look at patron lofts
Mealy Cock Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 Ecco lofts' are better made than Blake’s. Look for yourself! Ecco use thicker wood all round than Blake’s. I have been looking round for a new loft, some are very expensive, Ecco seem to me to be the best bet
Albear Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 I've had ecco and Barnsley in the past, both good lofts but Barnsley has priced itself out of the market for me. I've done quite a bit of research lately and come to the conclusion that Blake's is at the bottom end of the scale, ecco is much better, however it depnds on budget, if you can afford the ecoo loft dearer I think than Blakes but cheaper than the 'premier' loft suppliers, I would go with ecco lofts. I will also tell you that I spoke to one of the dearer suppliers who is well respected, he reccomended ecco lofts as the only supplier he would go to at the lower end of the market. Just my opinion but genuine I have nothing to gain from it. Check ecco loft's spec on their website and ask the others for their spec's.
pjc Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 did you have a look at patron lofts Brought a petron a few years ago, worst loft i've ever had!
Albear Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 Brought a petron a few years ago, worst loft i've ever had! Have you finished paying for it yet, I didn't fancy taking a mortgage out!
pjc Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 8 x 6, £1100 a few years ago, leaks like a sieve, floor made up of 4 pieces just to make cleaning easy, tiles short when it arrived!
cemetary Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 John Tranter would be the next loft for me, i think they are the best ave seen at Blackpool, JMO.
PATTY BHOY Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 http://www.eccosheds.co.uk/lofts/
Albear Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 John Tranter would be the next loft for me, i think they are the best ave seen at Blackpool, JMO. If you can afford them I would agree 100%, I couldn't! So I went to his recomendation ecco!
mart_1986 Posted November 24, 2009 Report Posted November 24, 2009 i have 2 12ftx6ft and cant complain i would buy again
wullie semple Posted November 24, 2009 Report Posted November 24, 2009 http://www.eccosheds.co.uk/lofts/ only using 12mm ply for the floor would not dream of using this should be at least 18mm if using 12mm ply you would have to use plenty framing below it
Albear Posted November 24, 2009 Report Posted November 24, 2009 Yes I would agree I've asked for 18mm on standard. Having said that most of the lower end are 12mm ( I think :-/)
Guest Posted November 24, 2009 Report Posted November 24, 2009 Hi ive ordered a blakes 12x6 today it was more my budget before xmas thanks for your replys
