Design and build FAQs

Would my job be too small?

We undertake diverse projects, with our builders embracing challenges and exhibiting pride in their work. From loft conversions to home extensions, we handle a variety of tasks. Whatever your plans entail, reach out to our team today and allow us to assist you with your upcoming project.

How quick will work start?

Our goal is to commence the project within 2 weeks of contract agreement, typically initiating most projects within 7 days. If planning permission is necessary, we allocate an additional week or two. This accounts for potential delays as government responses regarding approval can take up to two weeks.

What areas do you cover?

We serve various regions across London, particularly focusing on East, North, West, and Central London, along with selected areas in Essex. If your specific location is not listed, feel free to reach out to us to inquire about coverage in your area.

What about costs?

We establish the precise cost of your development, and a biweekly payment plan is organised before signing any contracts. Your project progresses in stages, and upon your approval at each stage, the remaining balance is settled. If any additional work is needed, we’ll inform you beforehand about any additional costs, typically during the next meeting […]

Do I require planning permission?

Whether planning permission is necessary depends on the nature of the intended work. For instance, certain conversions may require such permission, and all projects must adhere to Building Regulations. Please see this website for more information: https://www.planningportal.co.uk/info/200125/do_you_need_permission

Do you have contracts?

Our solicitors have drafted contracts and agreements that, upon signature, hold legal validity in a UK Court of Law. Each contract includes a ‘cooling off’ period, in accordance with the Consumer Rights Act. Tailored to the scope of the project or services, our contracts outline the agreed-upon deliverables, timeframe, and costs, encompassing materials and labor […]

The best in the business a 2 bedroom loft conversion and the whole of my house K rendered in under 6 weeks with amazing finishing and not a inch of space left for any complaints. Truly a great team I would recommend to any and everyone.

We’ve recently had a loft conversion and a double side extension completed by the team and we are extremely happy with the work and process as a whole. With such a large project and with my family and I remaining on site throughout, the team worked hard to complete the work on time and to a very high standard. Every question was answered in a timely manner, plans were discussed in detail and helpful ideas and suggestions were made when we were unsure - even when we changed our minds about things, nothing was ever too much trouble. Our home has been transformed and we now have a beautiful space we can enjoy for many years. Thank you so much for your hard work - highly recommended!

Excellent workmanship of the highest quality. These guys really are amazing. They performed a complete rebuild creating my dream kitchen. The level of detail was exceptional. Having used many other builders over the years. I can honestly say these guys are on another level for attention to detail, speed and efficiency. I’m saving for my next project as we speak. Happy to host an open house to show off my dream kitchen any time boys.

Albert and the team was very professional from beginning to the end of our project. They cleaned after themselves everyday and always left the place very tidy and clean. Albert has different experts in his team like painters , tilers and plumbers and every one worked to very high standards. Everyone was very friendly and nice to deal with . Albert communicated with us very clearly and we always knew where we are with the project. He always answered my phone calls and answered all my questions. My loft conversion was finished 1 week head of schedule which I was really happy about. We are extremely happy with the end result and highly recommend Alan loft conversions to everyone.

Albert managed the loft conversion with dormer for us from start to finish and he and his team did a fabulous job. He explained everything that would happen and when each part of the build would start. As we were working from home he tried his best to keep the disruption to a minimum. He and his team worked so hard and completed it in less time than I expected. He suggested different ideas to make the space and the finish look better. He kept checking me with to make sure we were happy. They cleaned up after they finished every evening. The loft is now a beautiful bedroom with and en-suite which we have received to so many compliments. He made sure we were happy with everything and anything extra that we wanted he accommodated. I would definitely recommend Alan loft conversion and will use him again for the kitchen.

*** due to privacy I prefer not to show images on public domain though I give permission to the company to share images of their work in my house when requested*** Albert is the owner and he managed the whole project. As with all new builders we needed to take time to know him but he is extremely trust worthy now that we worked with him. He is fair and helpful and goes over and above to make his customers happy. His workers are kept under timely manner and budget and they respect him which is important. He has chosen a bunch of very talented guys to do work for him. If you're not happy he makes a point to tell his boys off if need be. He answers the phone immediately, any query you have he is on it. He passed by our home several times to view the progress and ran for all permissions and paperwork. They are our lifelong go-to guys. Once you find them, hold them tight! I couldn't recommend them more, I have no words of how great the team is. Thank you for making our home special.

Alan Loft Conversions recently completed work - remodelling the kitchen and extending into the loft at my small, three bedroom terraced house. I can not recommend them more highly! Albert does exactly what he says he will do in the time he has allocated to the project. He is a force of nature and works at a super speed, totally organised and employing a professional and hard working crew. He sorted out a surveyor, drawings, and liaising with building regulations until completion. I have a beautiful well built loft space, guaranteed for 10 years and all at a very competitive price. Thanks Albert!
