FAQs

Some of Our Top FAQ and cost breakdown inquiries.

How Much Will It Cost?

The cost of any renovation or extension will depend on how extensive (or not) the job is. We prepare an accurate quote for you, so you know how much the work will cost. In general, costs will depend on a number of factors, including:

  • The type and size of conversion or extension you want.
  • The size of your property.
  • The type of house you own.
  • Any building regulations placed on your home – for example, if your property is a listed building or you live in a conservation area.
  • Any additional installations or fixtures you would like to include.
  • Whether you need planning permission.

Will I Need Planning Permission?

Planning permission may be required, depending on what you are changing in your home. For example, where the loft or kitchen conversion exceeds 50 cubic metres, if you live in a listed property or a conservation area, or whether you or a previous owner have previously extended or altered the property amongst others. We will advise you whether you need to secure planning permission during our initial consultation.

Is The Work Guaranteed?

Yes. We offer a 10-year warranty on all the work that we do, so you know that you have made a reliable, long-term investment.

Do You Offer Plumbing, Electrical And Carpentry Services?

Yes, we do offer these services and can incorporate them into a tailored quote.

How Long Will The Work Take?

This will depend on what you are having done. We will give you a more accurate quote once we have talked through with you what you are looking to do and discussed all the available options. This way you will have a clear idea of timeframes.

Can I Continue To Live In The Property During The Work?

Usually, yes. Our construction team minimises noise, debris and disturbance as far as possible, enabling you to continue to live in the house. With extensions, much of the work can be undertaken from the outside using scaffolding along the exterior of your home to further reduce disruption.

Yes. We can arrange to decorate your conversion or extension to your bespoke requirements. Simply let us know what you have in mind and we can include it in your quote.

We recently had an extension completed by Iloft Conversions Limited and we’re really pleased with the result. From start to finish, the team were professional, reliable, and easy to work with. The project was managed really well by Elvis, who kept everything moving smoothly and communicated clearly throughout. The workmanship is excellent, and the team were respectful of our home, tidy on site, and always happy to answer questions or talk through decisions as the build progressed. The finished extension has made a huge difference to our home and we’re very happy with the quality of the work.

We can't recommend iLoft and their team enough. We worked on a loft conversion in a conservation area with them last year, a tricky small space which feels better than we could've imagined. They finished the project in the estimated time (if not early). Their pricing was genuinely fair with no surprise costs. They were happy to pivot and respond to new design ideas - always wanting the make the best of our space. We'd work with them again in a heartbeat. Top props to Elvis!

A small job for them - partitioning a storage space to create a WC & shower room... We started with the idea of just a WC and washbasin and got a quote for that, but then at the detailed survey/design we floated the idea of fitting in a shower as well. Project manager Elvis was a great help in identifying the perfect shower cubicle for the space. The job entailed taking up existing, fairly new, kitchen flooring across the half or the store room that was to remain behind the new partition wall. When they'd finished that floor was perfectly restored - good as new! All in all an excellent job, done in good time with minimum disruption, and all decor properly made good.

Iloft completed our loft conversion, rear extension, and new kitchen in 2023, and I would highly recommend them. From start to finish, the team worked efficiently, listened to our requirements, and respected our vision throughout the project. As with any major build, there were a few challenges along the way, but what really stood out was how the team handled them. They were always patient, honest, willing to take responsibility where needed, and quick to put things right. They were professional, approachable, and genuinely cared about delivering a high-quality finish. Three years later, we recently had an issue, and Iloft responded promptly and resolved it without any hassle. That level of aftercare and customer service is rare and shows that they genuinely stand behind their work and care about their customers long after the project is complete. A special thank you to Leo, whose patience, professionalism, and communication made the whole experience so much easier. I’d also like to give a big shout-out to Elvis and his other brother for their hard work, attention to detail, and excellent craftsmanship. Overall, we had a fantastic experience with Iloft and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering a loft conversion, extension, or other building work.

I approached iLoft to strengthen the joists in my loft and install soundproof chipboard. They fielded all my questions at a site visit, completed the work ahead of schedule and achieved an excellent finish. Their team were very considerate while on-site - making sure to put down floor protectors, hoovering afterwards and touching up any small marks. I highly recommended iLoft for any renovation work. Thank you Elvis, Leo, Simona and team!

We’ve completed several renovation projects over the years and this has easily been the smoothest, quickest, and most positive experience we’ve had. From start to finish, the whole team were organised, efficient, and communicative. The project stayed true to its competitive budget, kept tightly to schedule, and finished on time, which made the entire process feel calm and well managed throughout. What really stood out was how collaborative and adaptable they were. Our layout and design came with a few quirky challenges along the way (including our own indecisiveness at times), but every hurdle was met with professionalism, patience, and a willingness to find the right solution. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble. The quality of the work and attention to detail were excellent, but equally important was the care they took day to day. The site was always kept tidy, they were incredibly respectful around noise and neighbours, and they made a genuine effort to keep positive spirits high throughout the build. Even our neighbours commented on how friendly, considerate, and clean the team were… including the grumpy neighbour every street seems to have. They’re a friendly family business and it genuinely shows in the way they communicate, work together, and care about both the project and the people around it. We’re now six weeks on from snagging completion and they still check in to make sure everything is okay and make themselves available if needed, although thankfully there’s been nothing to fix. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again or recommend them to friends and family
