Your loft conversion in Wandsworth questions answered

Have a question about loft conversions in Wandsworth? We’re happy to help. Read our answers to the questions that our customers frequently ask us.

How long does a loft conversion in Wandsworth take?

Depending on the size and type, most loft conversions in Wandsworth take around 12 weeks.

 

Will I need to move out during the project?

No – it’s safe to carry on living inside your Wandsworth property. We work from the scaffolding before the stairs go in. Any disruption you experience will mainly come from noise.

 

Where will you place our new staircase?

We will be able to fit your staircase around your existing layout and will find an option to suit you. If possible, we will try to fit your new staircase over the existing staircase so that it fits seamlessly within your property.

 

Do I need planning permission for a loft conversion in Wandsworth?

This depends on your location and type of property – all flats require planning, but if you live in a house that isn’t in a designated area, then permitted development is usually used and no planning is required. There are many other factors to take into account and one of our surveyors can advise further.

How much does a loft conversion in Wandsworth cost?

Most cost between £30,000 and £50,000. This depends on the size and type – bigger and more complicated jobs take longer and therefore will cost more. See pricing information for further details.

 

What is a party wall agreement and do I need one for a loft conversion?

A party wall agreement (PWA) is required if you have a semi-detached or a terraced property and you are working within or near your neighbour’s boundary. We can advise when the surveyor visits.

 

Does a loft conversion in Wandsworth add value to a home?

Yes – it will add from 20% to 30% upwards depending on the size, design and type.

 

How much head height do you need for a loft conversion in Wandsworth?

If you have a clear head height of 2m then a loft conversion in Wandsworth may be possible. Our surveyor will need to assess this to confirm.

Knoll Road, SW18

Home » Wandsworth
Road Name: Knoll Road, SW18
Town: Wandsworth
Loft Conversion type: Flat roof dormer
Duration of project: 10 weeks

The opportunity to create more space

Knoll Road has great loft spaces.  The client wanted a large bedroom with spacious en-suite.

The brief at the initial meeting was to create a high quality loft conversion with large dormer window, and a Juliette Balcony with privacy frosted glass.

How we can achieve a conversion like this for your home

We were delighted to be instructed on our second loft conversion within a month in Wandsworth, this time on Knoll Road.

The client required party wall agreements for both neighbours which we assisted with.

The scaffold was erected on the front and rear elevation.  All works were done from the outside and the client did not need to move out of the property while the loft works were ongoing.

The initial works were fitting the steels and the floor construction.

Once these were completed the dormer was built and made watertight. Natural slates were fitted to the face and cheeks.

Insulation used was Rockwool for heat retention and sound insulation. Recticel and Ecotherm Polyisocyanurate (or PIR) insulation was used for heat retention.  These insulation types also protect the loft conversion from heating up in the summer.

A common complaint from loft conversion homeowners is the excessive heat in lofts.  These are common in lofts where the incorrect insulation has been used.

A building regulation officer oversees the whole project, from the plans initially produced by the structural engineer to three visits during the loft conversion process.

A qualified electrician and plumber did all the first fixing followed by the fitting of Gyproc plasterboards by the plastering team.

The plumbing second fix took a week as fitted furniture was scheduled to be built and fitted.  Following this, the electrician returned and fitted lights, socket and an extractor to the en-suite. The whole property was fitted with a smoke detection system to comply with building regulations.

Finally, the carpenter returned for the second fix which included skirting and architraves, hanging doors, fitting the floor, storage and all the snagging.  We also covered the decoration for the client.

The final loft conversion was to a very high quality with a fresh and bright feel.
