I'm Back

Been really busy working on Tall Man Headquarters lately.
I have been making some decisions that could be good blog posts.
Just to see if anyone is listening, what would be the best topic for the next post?
1) Residential Sprinkler options
2) High Efficiency Boiler Options
3) Unfinished Hardwood Flooring
4) Fibre-Cement Siding installation
5) Cellular PVC trim fabrication and installation

Attic Hatch


I was asked recently about how big does an attic hatch need to be.
The answer is clearly stated (as clear as it gets) in the Ontario Building Code (above).

For a single family home the typical size is defined by the ceilng framing at 24" on center leaving a MINIMUM finished opening of 21 1/2 wide by a 24" long.

If you ever think you' d like to go in there then make it 30" long.
