Free Quote for Your Loft Conversion

Free quote requests are answered within 24 hours, with no obligation attached to any of it. Tell us where the property is and what you have in mind, and we will arrange a survey at a time that suits you. The survey takes about an hour and costs nothing whether or not you go ahead.

We quote after seeing the roof, never before. That is the point of it. A figure produced from a floor plan or a photograph is a guess, and guesses move upward once someone finally goes up the ladder.

What Happens Next

  • We call you back within 24 hours. A short conversation to understand the property and answer anything obvious before a visit.
  • We survey the loft. About an hour. Head height measured from the ceiling joists, roof identified as cut or trussed, span direction checked, staircase position established. We also confirm whether the property sits inside a conservation area or is listed, because in Colchester that changes what is possible.
  • You get a fixed written quotation. Structural calculations, Building Regulations submission, staircase and making good all inside the figure, with no provisional sums left hanging.

What We Will Ask You

Three things help us give you a useful answer on the first call. Roughly when the house was built, which indicates whether the roof is likely cut or trussed. Whether it is a terrace, a semi or detached, since that determines both the conversion options and the permitted development allowance. And what you want the space for, because a bedroom with an en suite and a home office are different jobs.

If you do not know, that is fine — we will establish it at the survey.

Where We Work

We cover Colchester and the surrounding towns and villages, including Clacton-on-Sea, Halstead, Wivenhoe, Tiptree and West Mersea.

If you would rather understand the options before speaking to anyone, the cost guide sets out 2026 prices by conversion type, and the planning permission guide explains where Colchester’s conservation areas change what is achievable.

Building Regulations requirements for loft conversions are published by LABC.
