The first thing to
decide when planning a loft conversion is
- Do you have
the space?
- What type of loft
conversion do you want?
- Are you in
restricted area?
- What will you use the extra space for?
- Do
you plan to build yourself?
- Do
you want the lowest builder quote?
knowing the answer
to these basic questions may save you considerable
of time and money.
Do you have the
space? if you cannot stand in your existing loft
space then it may cost over the odds to lower the
ceiling on the floor below to gain the 2.1m ceiling
height in the loft.
what
will you use the additional space for?
For most of
us a loft conversion will provide additional bedrooms. as you are
working within the confines of an already existing
space the design and having plans prepared will mean
the difference between a well designed usable space
to a uncomfortable unapproved one.
Do
you plan to build yourself?
A loft
conversion is a fairly difficult project
for the average DIY enthusiast to
complete and so should be left to those
who have experience, however if you are
a builder our service can be modified to
suite your requirements from material
lists, structural calculations, 3d
visuals, interior design concepts, and
much more.
Do
you want the lowest builder quote?
It may be
difficult to find a builder that will
come in on budget and have the time to
build your loft conversion, for this
reason we can prepare you project for
builder tender. we will submit your
project to a handfull of selected
reputable builders who will return there
quote for you to approve.
