Covering Donnington, Speen, Greenham and surrounding areas

A loft conversion in Newbury and the surrounding areas is one of the most effective ways to gain extra living space and increase the value of your property. At The Loft Room, we design and build high-quality loft conversions that turn underused loft space into stylish, functional rooms designed around the needs of modern living.

Whether you own a 1930s or 1970s family home in Wash Common, a mid-century house in Clay Hill, a period property in Speen or Shaw, or a bungalow immediately east of Newbury in Thatcham, our team creates bespoke loft conversions that enhance both the appearance and practicality of your home.

At The Loft Room, we take pride in delivering exceptional workmanship, thoughtful designs, and a smooth customer journey from start to finish. Each conversion is tailored to make the most of your available space while blending seamlessly with the existing style of your property and adding long-term value.

What are the benefits of a loft conversion?

Moving homes in and around the Newbury area – especially if you own a high-value property in a sought-after location – can be expensive, time-consuming and even unnecessary most of the time. Opting for a loft extension instead enables you to:

  • Increase the value of your property by up to 20%

  • Avoid the disruption and expense of moving homes

  • Expand and future-proof your home for years to come

  • Unlock unused living space without losing garden space or expanding your existing footprint

  • Get bespoke designs tailored to your home’s character and your preferences

We honestly couldn't recommend The Loft Room highly enough. Our relationship with them actually started around three years ago when they first came out to quote for our loft conversion. We weren't ready to go ahead at the time, but when we finally decided to push the button this year, The Loft Room were still the company we wanted to use – and we're incredibly pleased that we did. This was a significant project, creating an entirely new top floor with two bedrooms and two en-suites, all while we continued living in the house as a large family. From the very beginning, The Loft Room had a genuinely friendly, family-company feel. Everyone we dealt with seemed to care about the project and about making sure we were happy, and they were very conscious throughout that this wasn't just a building site – it was still our family home. A very special mention has to go to Jamie and Jared, who carried out the build. They were absolutely fantastic. They worked incredibly hard, were friendly, considerate and easy to have around, and we built a really good relationship with them over the course of the project. Jamie's workmanship and experience were obvious from the start. He constantly kept us involved, asked questions rather than making assumptions and made sure we were happy with how things were progressing. Communication was excellent throughout. With any building project of this size there are inevitably going to be challenges, changes or occasional delays. For us, the important thing was how these were dealt with. Jamie was always upfront, explained what was happening and kept us updated, so there were never any nasty surprises. If something needed sorting, it was sorted. That made a huge difference, particularly as I work from home and we were living through the entire build as a family. Jamie and Gared were incredibly respectful of that and did everything they could to minimise the disruption. Most importantly, we absolutely love what they've created. Turning what was previously unused loft space into two fantastic bedrooms and two en-suites has completely transformed the house. The quality of the workmanship is excellent and, looking at the finished result, we feel we've had really good value for what was a major investment in our home. It probably says everything about our experience that after months of having Jamie and Jared here every day, we actually miss having them around! I work from home, so it's genuinely strange not having the daily chats anymore. A really positive experience from the first conversation three years ago right through to completion. We'd happily recommend The Loft Room to anyone considering a loft conversion. A huge thank you to the whole team – and particularly Jamie and Jared – for everything you've done for us.

We have just had our loft completed by the loft room. They were really easy to work with, took care of all the paperwork. They were great at communicating all the stages and their response time was excellent. Adrian was our builder and he was fantastic. Super thorough, reliable, fast, tidy and often gave us suggestions when we were unsure. The whole project was finished in about 6weeks! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Loft Room to anyone. Many thanks!

We are so happy we decided to go ahead with The Loft Room. Everyone we met from our initial consultation with Paul to Lulian and his team and Helen and Melissa in the office have been great. We were especially impressed with the hard work of Lulian and his team even through the heatwave. They were friendly and professional and always ready to answer any questions we had. Thanks to Lulian for suggesting bigger Velux windows - they are amazing! All the trades involved were great - we will definitely use them again in the future. The work was completed on time and we are really happy with it. We would certainly recommend The Loft Room.

We used the loft room for our loft extension and are very pleased with the results. We were lucky enough to have Adrian and Andre build the dormer, the whole experience was excellent from start to finish. The work was completed incredibly quickly, yet the quality remained consistently high throughout. Adrian brought great ideas to the project that genuinely improved the final design, and he kept everything neat and tidy every single day. All the trades they works with — electrician, roofer, plumber and more — were equally reliable and skilled. There were no delays at any stage; each team arrived exactly when needed and kept the project moving smoothly. The administration side Helen and Mellisa was also superb, with clear updates and communication about progress and next steps. A very professional service all round.

Off the recommendation of friends we engaged the Loftroom to refresh and extend our existing loft conversion, adding new insulation, skylights, a new shower room and additional bedroom. We have never done major work to a property before so benefited greatly from loft room supporting us start to finish with planning, designs and all the various trades needed. Our team lead Marius was excellent from start to finish. Him and his team were incredibly hard working, working quickly and to a very high standard. We were really impressed especially given they worked through multiple heat waves !!Their advise and guidance during the build was invaluable (see skylight in shower room!). We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Marius and the wider loft room team (who were very supportive every step of the way) to anyone looking to complete a loft conversion or improve an existing one.

We recently completed a loft conversion with The Loft Room, adding two generous rooms, a bathroom and a proper landing, and we are delighted with the result. The new floor feels like a natural part of the house rather than an addition, and the quality of the finished space is excellent. A special mention must go to Dave, who managed the project with patience, kindness and a genuine commitment to getting things right. Building work inevitably brings challenges and changes along the way, but Dave was consistently approachable, practical and willing to find solutions. He took real pride in the work and cared about the final outcome, which made a significant difference to us. The whole team worked incredibly hard in our home, and we are very grateful for what they created. It was a major project for our family, and the additional space has genuinely transformed how we can use and enjoy the house. We would happily recommend The Loft Room and especially Dave.

Getting a loft conversion done is a big decision. We were honestly quite nervous about it, especially given the investment involved and the number of horror stories you hear about building projects going wrong. Thankfully, our experience with The Loft Room was the complete opposite. From day one, the whole process was handled brilliantly. Everyone we dealt with, from the office team through to the various tradespeople who worked on our home, was professional, friendly and incredibly well organised. What impressed us most was that our loft was completed in just 9 weeks, and the quality of the workmanship never felt rushed. A special mention has to go to Ashley C. He wasn't just the team leader overseeing the project. He was the lead carpenter and the driving force behind the entire build, coordinating all of the contractors, managing the day-to-day work, and making sure everything stayed on track. More than that, he felt like a genuine partner in the project. He understood that we had a budget to work within, took the time to listen, offered great ideas to maximise the space, and always made us feel completely comfortable and informed. His communication was exceptional throughout. No question was ever too small, no concern was ever brushed aside, and he was always happy to walk us through things, sometimes more than once when we needed reassurance. Having someone like Ashley on site every day made what could have been a stressful experience feel surprisingly straightforward and enjoyable. Every contractor who came into our home was polite, respectful and highly skilled. There wasn't a single issue throughout the build, and it was obvious that everyone took pride in their work. In fact, by the end of the project, it was genuinely a little sad to see the team finish. Ashley had become such a reassuring and professional daily presence that we'll genuinely miss seeing him and the crew around. We're now at the final decorating stage and can't wait to move into and enjoy our beautiful new space. We've been talking about our experience to anyone who'll listen, recommending The Loft Room to neighbours and friends, and proudly showing people the transformation. If you're considering a loft conversion, we honestly couldn't recommend The Loft Room highly enough. They've completely exceeded our expectations in every way. 10/10 for quality, professionalism, communication and customer service. And if you're lucky enough to have Ashley C. leading your build, you'll be in extremely safe hands. He played a huge part in making our project such a success.

We had our loft conversion completed by The Loftroom Teddington at the start of the year, and we're absolutely delighted with the finished result. The extra space has made such a difference to our home, and the quality of the work has been excellent. A big thank you to Ash, who did a fantastic job and was always friendly, hardworking, and happy to answer any questions we had each morning (and throughout the day!). We'd also like to thank Paul, who was great from our very first interaction, as well as Melissa and Helen in the office, who kept everything running smoothly, and Rich, who regularly popped in during the build to check on progress. As with any building project, there were a few small niggles, but these were dealt with quickly, professionally, and efficiently. It was reassuring to know that the team stood by their work and were committed to making sure everything was right. Overall, we've had a really positive experience from start to finish and wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Loftroom Teddington to anyone considering a loft conversion. Thank you to the whole team!
