Unfortunately there is no simple answer for this. You really need to shop around and get quotes from at least three companies. Get references from their previous customers and as to see their work - some companies will arrange for you to visit some of their previous work.

When selecting a loft conversion company, try to follow these guidelines:

  1. The company should belong to a recognised trade association such as Federation of Master Builders;
  2. They have experience in converting lofts - preferably, it should be their speciality;
  3. They can provide references of previous work;
  4. They can provide at least 10 years guarantee for the structural work they have carried out;
  5. The have adequate insurance to cover any damage that may be caused by their actions, during the conversion process;

Make sure you get a detailed written quote from each of the builders you contact. Opt for a fixed price basis rather than an estimate which can go up dramatically as work progresses.

Don't be afraid to ask questions - a reputable builder won't mind all the questions and will be used to being asked questions.

Don't just go for the cheapest - cheapest isn't always the best. A good builder may charge a bit more, but at the end of the day, you will have a loft conversion that is carried out professionally and, more importantly, will be stress-free.
