The Process of Working with Us

You are here:

When you work with us you will see that we have a strict process in place to achieve the best possible results for you. Our process is designed to ensure client satisfaction, something which really works in our favour as many of our clients have come to us through recommendations.

This is the process we follow on all loft conversion or extension projects we take up.

Free feasibility survey and quotation

Every project will begin with a survey and a full quotation, allowing us to see your property in person and give you an accurate price for all necessary work. We will take the time to discuss possible designs, to establish what you want to achieve, before sending over a no-commitment quote. This service is completely free of charge – you are welcome to book an appointment.

Design service

We carry out a detailed survey of your property, then we get to work on preparing your drawings. Our in-house team has more than 30 years’ experience and will turn your ideas into a practical, working design, getting approval from you to make sure it meets your needs. Then, we will work on preparing the necessary structural calculations, which will be submitted for planning consent if required.

Planning permission

We ensure all necessary planning approval is obtained prior to your building work beginning. We have worked with planning teams for many years, and our team members have extensive experience helping clients secure planning permission. We can help you understand whether you need planning permission and, if you do, submit an application on your behalf to the relevant authorities.

Building work

Our site team will discuss with you to find a time to begin transforming your property at your convenience. Our team consists only of approved installers. All our builders are highly qualified and will ensure the building standards are kept consistently high, and the programme of work is completed speedily yet safely. We keep you fully informed throughout the process.

Aftercare

Once your project is complete, we don’t just leave it there. We complete a final walk-through and snagging inspection to make sure the building works are completed, functioning properly. Do be aware that it can take a while for new building work to settle in and bed down; we will check this during our walk-through.

Guarantee

Once all the work is complete, we will cover it with a 10-year workmanship guarantee. The new building work will continue to settle down over time, so if you notice cracks appearing in the walls or have any other concerns, please do let us know. All products will come with their own guarantees as well, so we can advise you on those relating to your materials, furniture and appliances.
