Costs typically range from £30,000 for a basic Velux conversion up to £70,000+ for a full dormer or mansard conversion. We provide detailed fixed-price quotes after a free survey.

How long does a loft conversion take?

A standard loft conversion takes between 6–10 weeks from start to finish, depending on complexity and the type of conversion chosen.
