Yes we have converted many loft in the London area and have years of
experience. We are also a full member of the Federation of Mater
Builders (FMB). We are also nice people and can help you along every
step of the process.
Are you
fully insured for such works?
Naturally we have full public liability insurance an contact works
insurance giving you full peace of mind through out the process. These
can be viewed on request.
How do I
know I can convert my loft?
Generally if you have 2.3m clear between the ceiling joists and the
apex of the roof (the highest point) then you should be able to convert
your loft space.
Complete the survey below and find out for sure what’s
possible.
Can you
help with the early stages in terms of design and planning?
Yes, we can help form planning through to completion. We even got
permission to do a loft in a central location spot in Mayfair recently
and even helped with gaining permission for an additional
flat within this?
Where
will the stairs go and what will they look like?
Normally they will run over the existing stairs but this may not always
be possible. The stairs will be a very close match to the existing to
make sure they are in keeping with the rest of the house.
How long
does this planning process take?
Typically around 6-8 weeks from submission.
Can you
deal with party wall matters for us?
No but we can put you in touch with reputable local surveyors who we
work with on a regular basis.
How long
does the build process take?
This normally takes around 8 weeks to complete depending on the size
and nature of the loft conversion
What are
your typical working hours?
From Monday to Friday 8 until 6 and Saturday from 8 unitl 1. These
hours can be altered to suit your requirement but are aimed at
completing the loft in the fastest possible time.
How will
you access the loft?
Almost exclusively from the scaffold that will erected to allow the
works. We will rarely need to enter the house except for
towards the end when we break through to install the stairs.
Who
supervises this work?
Either the owner of the company or a project manager will oversee
works. It will be further supervised by the local building control
department who we will liase with on your behalf. They will come to the
site approximately 5/6 times to check that everything meets current
building standards.
We work
full time, how can we keen in contact with you?
You will also have access to an office based project manager who is
available both on the telephone and via email throughout the working
day.
Can we
live in during the works?
You will be able to live in the property with very little disruption to
the main living space. Most of our clients live in situ during the
build.
What
will I need to do with my current plumbing installation?
If you have a combination boiler normally it is possible to simply
extend this system without problems. If you have a water tank and or a
flat beneath your this will be a little more involved and will have to
be surveyed by our plumber.
