Very useful thank you! I now know that paying off my mortgage might be a better idea before I think about loft conversions and having kids.

I’d love to see a video of a more simple velux conversion. We want to create a simple kid hang out room but have no idea of cost. We’ll definitely be requesting a quote from you guys when it’s more of a realistic possibility!

Thanks for the breakdown Dan. Would you say it added more than £54,000 in value on the property should it get revalued/remortgaged? thinking of doing one myself but it needs to make sense economically.

@Abir-Kl Ай бұрын

Hi. Does anyone know the actual size of the room? Like is it 12" by 10"? Or bigger or smaller?

@markwilson2991 3 ай бұрын

Gutted that you guys don’t cover the Leeds area. We’ve had an unpleasant experience with our build due to a lack of upfront design by the team offering a ‘design service’ leading to lots of unexpected costs vs quote. Do you show / discuss dimensions and electrical point locations prior to build?

@djmooreloftconversionspeci458 3 ай бұрын

Sorry to hear that. We like to show the client the space. Ie structure shell and then walk through all the locations of electrics and plumbing and even walls. But they have detailed plans at start of build and also full spec sheet. Ie how many lights and sockets.

Dan in your experience what's the difference in price between normal scaffolding or the addition of a tin hat and wrapping?

@djmooreloftconversionspeci458 3 ай бұрын

We pay around £6/7k for a tin hat scaffolding alone. So it’s a large chunk of a budget if needed.

Only 4 things not included. Are decoration , carpets. Bathroom suite it’s self. And the tiles.

Thanks for being so transparent and all the useful information you provide. I’m now able to appropriately consider any quotes. 3 more questions: 1) do you work in Essex? 2) what can you get out of 50m3 under permitted development with a trussed roof incorporating back dormer? Trying to visualise if this is a lot of space or just average. I appreciate every house is different 3) do you do other house refurbs or just lofts?

What do you do to make sure the conversion is similar temp to other rooms late spring/summer?

@djmooreloftconversionspeci458 3 ай бұрын

Use the correct insulation and methods to do this. Insulation has come along way over the last few years.

@matthewhunty 3 ай бұрын

Hi, you did not mention how big the loft extension is. Also when you quote a loft extension, is it the size of the extension or the size of the base to workout the meter squared cost.

@djmooreloftconversionspeci458 3 ай бұрын

We don’t work it out on a meterage cost that’s why unfortunately.

@matthewhunty 3 ай бұрын

@@djmooreloftconversionspeci458 I want to price mine. I was told 1200 a m2. But the builder did not know whether the price is based on the base size of the house 55 sq m in my case or the loft size I required 39.9 sq m. How big was yours. I don’t want to get quotes if the wife is going to say no.

Sorry I couldn’t give a cost of that. There’s so many things to consider. Best speaking to local company’s to give you an idea who know the area.

@StewSims 3 ай бұрын

Useful thanks. Have you ever done conversions by taking a whole roof off and putting in new pre-fabricated attic trusses? If so how do the costs stack up vs. other approaches? (other than the requirement for tin hat scaffold or vacant property)

@djmooreloftconversionspeci458 3 ай бұрын

If it’s going to be a velux conversion it’s would work out cheaper but if dormer no worth it. May as well do a cut roof. And yes we have done a couple of you look back on the chanel.

As mentioned that element has skips scaffolding ppe all in that figure as well as building fees, structural calcs. Not just designs.

@JackieRawe 3 ай бұрын

Great Dan thanks. I'm assuming your profit is included in those prices. I had 4 quotes for my loft all very different. I spoke to the builder who gave me the best price (he came highly recommended), when he found out he was the cheapest he called me back and said there was a mistake and added £10,000 on to the estimate. His initial price was round about the figure you've just given. The top quote was over £85,000. Mine is a hip to gable end no dorma with timber frame and hung tile and the existing floor joists are already the correct size. It's a semi and plenty of room for scaffolding and a skip. I wish I was in your milage range. Love the glasses by the way!

@djmooreloftconversionspeci458 3 ай бұрын

Hip to gables are a more pricey build in most cases typically unfortunately. Most our area are around £65k now days
