Why a loft conversion
A loft conversion is a popular and, more often than not, cost-effective way of maximising the potential of your home by creating significant additional space. This also has the further benefit of increasing its value too, in some cases by as much as 30%!
One of the most popular types of loft conversions is to add a bedroom (or bedrooms), which again will help push up the value of your property, as well as providing additional space for any potentially growing family.
Access Loft Conversions are a leading provider of loft conversions in not only the Durham area but also many other parts of the UK too. We have built up a proud record of hundreds of satisfied customers over the last 15 years due to our professional, clear and simple process that guarantees minimum disruption to your home along with the peace of mind of our after-care package.
Why you should always choose professionals
OK, you have identified the need for a loft conversion, but how and where do you start?
Firstly, it is essential to be aware of the various regulations that need to be considered, as although not all loft conversions require planning permission from the local authority in Durham, Building Regulations will certainly need to be adhered to and approved for all loft conversions. Failure to adhere to planning or building regulations can result in potentially serious issues for the safety of any loft conversion and, without the necessary certification from the local authority, it may render your home unsellable, as such regulations are a statutory requirement. Using a rogue trader who ignores such regulations could result in you ending up with a home that is both potentially dangerous and not fit for sale.
The answer to eliminating these potential pitfalls and ensuring your expanded home environment is a success that is safe for your family is to use Access Loft Conversions in Durham.
Access Loft Conversions’ full design & build service
Once you have made contact with Access Loft Conversions, we will undertake a no-obligation visit to your Durham address to take a look at the potential project. We will then be able to provide a fixed-price quote, along with all the relevant information regarding whether planning permission will be needed. There will be no need to worry about any of the regulatory requirements as, once we have been given the green light for the project, our architects and your dedicated loft conversion project manager will take care of all the necessary certification and ensure that all building regulations are adhered to, by regular contact with the local authorities in the Durham area.
Once Access Loft Conversions commence work, you will not need to move out of your home as our team of professional loft converters will endeavour to cause as little disruption as possible to your normal daily routine, with completion normally achieved within 3 to 5 weeks. In many cases, we don’t actually need access to the inside of your home until the final week of the project, as we erect scaffolding outside to enable access to the loft!
