Once you have accepted the quote, the fun part starts, the design phase, our excellent design team will create a few possible floor plans based on the conversations we have had about your requirements. They will then work with you to make any adjustments for your preferences until you are 100% happy with the design and we are ready to finalise the plans.

The Different Types of Loft ConversionsThere are a number of different styles of loft and the configuration of how your loft is layed out can be tailored to suit your needs as we recognize that everyone is looking to get something different out of a conversion.
Our team are skilled in all manner of styles and designs and can show you the benefits of each of these to help make up your mind as to which will be best for you. |
Some people will opt for the dormer or L-shaped dormer which is like adding a box to the side of your roof to give you more space, while others may be happy with the Velux conversion which is simpler, more cost effective but still a very popular choice.

Can I Convert My Loft?
A lot of people ask us about the rules and regulation around converting their loft and what permissions they may need.
Most properties in Woking and Surrey will come with planning permission that allows you to convert your loft, but it is always best to check with your local council to ensure there are no restrictions on your particular property. We can help you with this process as we work closely with the Woking Council to check all the planning permissions before we progress with the project.
Three factors to look for before considering a loft conversion are:
Head Space
Local regulations dictate that the height of the loft will need to be a minimum of 2.3 meters to be considered for a conversion. This is to ensure that there is enough headspace to be able to use it as a living space.
There are a few work arounds for this such as lowering the floor if it's possible, or increasing the ceiling height, so get in touch with us to find out all your options.
Additional Factors:
Another factor is the type of hot water system you have in your home, many properties still have the water tank in the loft which will obviously need to be changed. In most cases this is not an issue as you can have a combi boiler system installed which is actually more modern and efficient so has some additional benefits. This will allow you to remove the water tank and free up the loft space for conversion.
Local Area Rules:
Many properties, are situated inside a complex or estate that have their own covenants and regulations on what can be added to the outside of a property as they like all the houses to have a specific appearance. In these cases you will also need to get permission from your estate management company to proceed with the loft conversion, particularly if you are adding a dorma to the loft.

How Long Does it Take to Convert My Loft?
The amount of time it takes to convert your loft will of course depend on the specification of your build, and factors such as the time of year and weather conditions, but generally we estimate that the average loft conversion takes between 6 - 8 weeks.
In our experience this is the most common time frame our clients will wait for the project to complete.
As mentioned though, this can depend on factors such as holiday seasons, weather and whether or not you use our in-house tradesman, or if you rely on the scheduling your own team around our loft fitters.
The former will ensure that all trade work is carried out exactly on time as our experienced team will ensure that they fit in with our loft fitters, and the two teams are able to liaise and work closely together to ensure a positive outcome.
No matter what unforeseen delays we may experience while working on your project, our team are more than capable of making up the time and will always do their best to complete your project within the stipulated timelines of the contract.

Living in My Home During the Building Process
It is entirely possible to live in your home throughout the process of your conversion - in fact, most of our customers do.
Our builders will enter your property through a side hole in the loft for the first half of the project which will totally reduce the impact on your home during the build.
Once the new loft staircase is installed, they will then use this to access the area, but they will of course always be courteous to your home and surroundings, ensuring no waste, dirt or damage is created in your home.
All in all, our team will go out of their way to reduce the negative impact of carrying out this building work, and will make the process as simple and hassle free as possible for you.

Letting the Neighbours Know About My Build
In accordance with The Part Wall Act 1996 you'll need to make sure you let your neighours know that you are carrying out any conversion work, and if you share a wall with them they will need to agree to building work being carried out on this wall.
In most cases, this is a formality but in some cases we can help if required with ensuring that everything is correctly completed before your build begins.
