Loft Conversions in Sutton

Over recent years the demand for loft conversions in Sutton and the surrounding areas has increased dramatically. Home owners are increasingly choosing to extend into their roof space, rather than to the rear or side of their properties. In fact, due to space constraints and planning restrictions, which apply to many properties in the area, a loft conversion may be your only viable option.

Why are loft conversions so popular?

The increased demand can probably be traced back to 2015, when government legislation was passed, relaxing planning permission rules. These changes allowed loft conversions in Sutton to be built under permitted development in many cases, removing the need to go through the costly and unpredictable process of gaining planning permission.

Loft conversions are also considerably cheaper, and quicker to build
than rear or side extensions, which often require extensive groundworks.
The cost will naturally depend on the size and complexity of the build.

I live in Sutton and I’d like a loft conversion… but where do I start?

If you’re thinking about a loft conversion but aren’t sure where to begin, don’t worry, we’ll help you through every stage, from start to finish.

The first step is to arrange your free consultation.

We’ll agree a convenient time to visit your property, to review what’s possible and advise you on the practicalities, while offering suggestions of how to get the very best out of the available space. Based on this, we’ll provide a no obligation quote*, with an estimated start and completion time, for a top-quality loft conversion, tailored to your needs.

What is the cost of a loft conversion in Sutton?

While it’s not quite like asking “How long is a piece of string?” There isn’t simple answer to this question. Types of loft conversions in Sutton vary and every project is different, so it’s impossible to give an accurate cost, without a proper evaluation of your loft space and your specific requirements.
So why not arrange a free consultation and quote? At least you know that won’t cost anything!

How long will my loft conversion take?

Again that depends on the complexity of the project. For example a simple Velux loft conversion may take 3-4 weeks whereas a Dormer style loft conversion may take 6-8 weeks.

You can find out more about the different styles of loft conversion, along with other helpful information on our main loft conversions page.

"Bobby and his team recently put wooden floor down in my sitting room, dining room, and hallway. The quality of the flooring and workmanship was top notch. They cleaned up at the end of each working day and kept disruption to a minimum. We also had extra electrical sockets fitted and they made good any plastering where needed. All in all I found Bobby and his team to be polite, cheerful, reliable and honest. His quote was very reasonable and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone."
