“We had a rear dormer conversion done last summer — extra bedroom and en-suite for our teenage daughter. Got three quotes through this site, saved around £4,000 compared to the first firm we spoke to. The specialist handled planning permission and building regs start to finish. Highly recommend.”
“Hip-to-gable conversion on our 1930s semi. I was nervous about the planning application but the specialist I found here had done dozens in our street and knew exactly what to submit. Project came in on time at 10 weeks. The new master bedroom is brilliant.”
“L-shaped dormer on our Victorian terrace — created two rooms and a bathroom from what was a completely unusable loft. The comparison process gave me confidence I was paying a fair price. Building control sign-off came through with no issues. Absolutely transformed the house.”
