Find a local, reliable loft conversion specialist

Loft conversions are a great way to expand your home’s available space without having to move. Whether you want to turn your loft space into a master bedroom or a new bespoke home gym, with a loft conversion you can make it happen.

Factors to consider when choosing a loft conversion specialist

Avoid stress and costly repairs down the line by hiring a skilled loft conversion specialist to help you upgrade your home. Look out for loft conversion installers that:

  1. Are a skilled company with a strong history of high standard projects
  2. Have all the licenses and insurance needed to protect you and their workers
  3. Have a good range of positive reviews from previous customers vouching for their reliability
  4. Are offering the conversion installation type you need, and are available to carry out the work in the timeframe you need it by
  5. Are quoting a price and payment option that you are happy with, having compared the quote with other loft conversion companies

A local loft conversion specialist is more likely to respond quickly as they’ll be right around the corner and ready to help.

What a loft conversion specialist can help you with

Loft conversion specialists help you turn your loft into a living space, transforming it into any room you might want, from a bedroom and ensuite bathroom, to a new kitchen or home library. In particular, they focus on:

  • Loft conversions
  • Loft refurbishments
  • Installing metal and wooden loft staircases
  • Installing Velux / skylight windows

If you love your home and don’t want to move, but you need more space, then a loft conversion is a great way to make the most of an underutilised area of your home. Alternatively, you can consider a house extension or garage conversion as well.

How much does it cost to convert a loft?

Illustration of a row of houses with labels showing how much different loft conversion types cost to convert

How much you’ll end up spending on your loft conversion depends on a few things, including:

  1. The condition of your loft
  2. The type of conversion you want
  3. How big your loft is
  4.  Where you live in the UK

There are several loft conversion types, including Velux conversions, dormer loft conversions, mansard loft conversions, hip to gable loft conversions and bungalow conversions.

On average, you could spend anywhere from £40,000 to £150,000, depending on the type of loft you have and its size.

Do I need planning permission to convert my loft?

You can convert your loft without applying for planning permission, as long as:

  • Your home isn’t a building containing one or more flats
  • Your home hasn’t already had additional storeys added to it
  • Your home wasn’t converted into a house (from a previous, non-residential use)

Keep in mind that different rules apply if you live in a listed building. For the full list of building regulations and rules, visit the Planning Portal website, or read our planning permission guide.

Questions to ask before you hire a loft conversion specialist

Whether you’re looking to convert your bungalow or want a dormer loft conversion, a local loft conversion company can help you create a brand new living space in your home. Here are a few questions to ask before you hire:

Do you have public liability insurance and what does this cover?

While it’s not a requirement for them to have it, it’s a good idea for your loft conversion specialists to have public liability insurance to cover you and them against any accidental damage done to your home or personal injuries. Make sure to always ask your tradespeople what insurance they have before you hire them. This will guarantee protection for both parties and ensure your loft specialists are legally compliant.

How many years of experience do you have?

Knowing how many years of experience your loft conversion specialist has will allow you to pick a tradesperson who you are confident has enough experience to carry out a high quality job. When you’re finding a tradesperson through Rated People, head over to their profile to check out the pictures on their work gallery and their ratings and reviews.

Do you use subcontractors? If so, are they licensed and insured?

Your loft conversion specialist is likely to employ subcontractors. It’s a good idea to confirm the qualifications and insurance coverage of everyone who will be working on your project, whether they’re subcontractors or fully employed by your project manager. Anyone working with gas needs to be registered with Gas Safe, and anyone installing electrics (in England and Wales) needs to be Part P certified to be able to self-certify their work. These tradespeople will have valid documentation that you can ask to check.

What is your estimated timeline for completing the project?

Knowing what the estimated timeline for completing the project is will help you set realistic expectations about how long your renovation will take to complete.

How much will the job cost?

Asking how much the job will cost will help you budget for your project and will ensure price transparency before you hire. How much you’ll end up spending depends on the scope of your project, and where you live in the UK, so make sure you add plenty of details when you post a job.

James completed a full flat refurbishment for me. New Bathroom, new radiators, complete redecoration of all rooms inc plastering, new laminate flooring. Nothing too much trouble, turned up on time and everything finished to a high standard. Fair price for a fair job. He even came back a few weeks later to finish off some work that couldn’t be done on the original job due to late fitting by another contractor (not him!). Would happily re-hire, and have already asked for another quote

Carl and the team undertook a full landscape, fencing and decking project. It wasn't a small task, with hidden tree stumps, heavily overgrown garden and uneven levels. The team were brilliant and had the whole garden fully landscaped, including a new fence, roll on lawn, deck and a few other additional tasks completed within a week. Team turned up on time every day and worked solidly to get the job finished within the quoted timeframe. Would strongly recommend Root2Roof for the works they completed.

Absolutely fantastic service. We had cracks in our two main bedrooms, hallways and living room that needed repairing whilst we were living in the house with a baby and small child. Tilly got three men on the job to get it all completed asap. The team worked flat out without breaks and got done in 2.5 days (Tilly quoted aprox 3 days). They did over and above what I’d asked them to painting areas they hadn’t even replastered to make the hose look fresh. Tilly quoted & charged very reasonably too.
