What happens after you get in touch

Nothing you have to chase. One call, one visit and one written price, and you are free to walk away at any point in it.

We call you back within 24 hours

A short conversation about the house and what you are hoping to do with the space. We will ask roughly when the property was built, whether it is a terrace, a semi or a detached house, and what you want the room for, because a bedroom, an en-suite and a home office each pull the design in a different direction. There is no sales pitch on that call. If what you are describing is not something we can help with, we would rather tell you then than send someone out.

The free design survey, about an hour

We come to the house and measure the head height from the floor to the underside of the ridge, which is the single thing that decides whether a loft works. We look at how the roof is built, whether the timbers are open rafters you can stand between or a web of angled struts, and where the new staircase can land without eating the room below. Then we tell you honestly what your roof allows and what it involves, including the parts people are not expecting, like the fire doors and the headroom over the stairs.

Your fixed written price, a few days later

Itemised, with no provisional sums that grow once the scaffold is up. It covers the design, the structural calculations, the planning application where one is needed, the building regulations and the build itself, so you are not appointing three different companies and finding out later whose job something was. Payments are staged at milestones, so you are never paying for work that has not happened yet.

What is useful to have ready

None of it is essential, and we can work it out on the visit, but it speeds things up. A rough idea of the age of the house, whether anything has been done to the roof before, whether you are in a conservation area, and what you want the space to be. If you have had another company out already, tell us what they said. We are happy to explain where we would agree with them and where we would not.

Where we work

Across south east London and the whole of Kent, from Peckham and Greenwich out to Maidstone, Canterbury and Ashford. Our team is in-house rather than subcontracted, so the people who survey your roof are the people who build it, wherever you are. If your postcode is not on our areas page, ask anyway. Some of our best projects started with a call from someone who assumed we would say no.
