Building above the rest: luxury loft design

Building above the rest: luxury loft design

With over 30 years’ experience, Rich Conlin and Paul Gibbs started The Loft Room to fulfil the need for luxury design and service in the loft conversion industry and now proudly work on homes across South West London, Surrey, Berkshire and Hampshire.

Unlike most traditional loft conversion companies, The Loft Room was founded and now managed by two expert carpenters who set out to create bespoke spaces and offer an exceptional experience for their clients. Now, after building hundreds of lofts (and many more before The Loft Room), Paul, Rich and their team of architects and structural engineers have an extraordinary ability to turn any loft into the heart of their client’s home. In the office, Rich’s wife Melissa and his mother-in-law Maggie keep everything running smoothly ­­– ensuring this family-run business provides a unique luxury service like no other.

Gone are the days of loft conversions being a bland, purely practical addition to your home — the future is luxury, unique spaces that upgrade and add value. Not only are innovative designs aesthetically pleasing, but they can also provide solutions to common issues such as storage in small spaces.

With an exceptional eye for detail and the right vision, even the most abstract spaces can be utilised optimally by incorporating chic and clever storage solutions which leave room for the finer finishes, rather than invading and taking over the space available.

From sleek fixtures to luxurious furnishings, Rich and Paul’s eye for design is second to none. In any space — whether it’s a sumptuous countryside room or an indulgent bedroom with a luxury en suite — The Loft Room knows how to create enviable expansions that clients adore.

Say Goodbye to Problematic Processes

Lusting after a bespoke loft conversion but dreading the thought of invasive builders traipsing through your home? The Loft Room understands that privacy is a necessity, not a luxury, for its clients. That’s why they carry out all builds from the outside-in — working from scaffolds to guarantee minimal interruption to your home life. So, you can relax and continue your day as usual.

Starting their careers as carpenters, both Paul and Rich know the loft conversion process like the back of their hand. So, when faced with a potential problem, they can act fast to quickly resolve it — meaning there is no need to expect any delays with your project, no matter how challenging the build might be.

Eddie, our main contractor, and his labourer Damian were an absolute joy to have on-site. Their professionalism, manners, and attention to detail were exceptional. Eddie’s workmanship is top-tier, and the speed and efficiency with which he executed the project were incredibly impressive. We absolutely love our new loft space, and the sheer quality of the construction delivered by Eddie and his brilliant on-site team completely earned this top rating. If we were judging solely on The Loft Room side, this would have been closer to a 4-star review. Communication with the head office was sometimes a little haphazard, and there were some unexpected plumbing extras from early bathroom decisions that could have been made clearer by sharing an indicative plumbing "extras" cost upfront. We also received some inaccurate guidance from The Loft Room on paint quantities for the new bedroom and en-suite, which left us with far too much paint that couldn't be returned and the "free" decoration incentive was disappointing due to a poor finish and surly decorators. Ultimately, though, a build is only as good as the person executing it. Eddie’s fantastic management, swift pace, and flawless execution completely outshone other frustrations. We couldn't be happier with the final result.

Dragos and his team did a great job for us. They provided a complete end to end service from design, architecture and planning permission, full loft construction and decorating. Early on in the project, with the support of Dragos, we decided to make a fundamental change to the design. They took this in their stride with no material change to the cost. The team were considerate, skilled, polite and reliable throughout the project. I would thoroughly recommend The Loft Room to anyone considering a loft extension or major alteration.

From the moment we spoke to Maggie, we felt The Loft Room was the right company for us. The whole admin team (Maggie, Melissa, Helen and Ciara) are warm and friendly, and super efficient. Dave and Ashley (and Charlie) have done a fantastic job converting our loft. We have wholeheartedly trusted Dave’s expertise with him having completed 42 lofts previously. We are absolutely delighted with the results so far. The tradespeople that have been over have been excellent: Mark and Kasper - the roofers, Stuart - electrician, Justin - plasterer, Dave - painter etc. We did get some lower quotes from other companies, but we think there’s a strong case of ‘you get what you pay for’ with The Loft Room. The whole process was surprisingly smooth and unobtrusive - we just hadn’t expected that from a loft conversion. We would definitely recommend The Loft Company.

Really happy with the finished loft conversion! The team was very friendly, professional, and respectful of our home throughout the project. While it took a little longer than initially expected, we put it down to the extreme heat of the summer we just had. The quality of the final build makes it well worth it—would recommend!

We recently had a rear dormer completed by The Loft Room, which also involved lowering the ceilings throughout the first floor. The efficiency and quality of the work carried out are the main reasons we’ve given five stars. We felt the administrative and communications side of the process could have been better, but ultimately the most important thing for us was the quality of the build, and in that respect we were extremely happy. The team on site were excellent and always treated the house as our home rather than simply a building site. They were respectful, tidy and a pleasure to have around throughout the project. Dragos has been a joy to work with and brought a huge amount of calm, experience and knowledge to the project. Lulian, on site, was the ultimate professional. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and the quality of his workmanship was excellent. Overall, we’re really pleased with the end result and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Loft Room based on the quality of the work and the team we had on site.

We are so happy with our new loft space and have been really impressed with The Loft Room from start to finish. Communication throughout the project has been excellent. Marius and his team worked incredibly hard to meet deadlines while taking great care and pride in their work. Helen in the office, along with Marius, were always on hand to keep us updated on progress and talk us through the different choices and options available. It was also really helpful having a clear contract in place detailing exactly what was included in the agreed costs. This made budgeting much easier and meant there were no unexpected or surprise costs along the way. We can’t wait for the final touches to be completed so we can start enjoying our family’s new space. Thank you to the whole team for all your hard work — we’re really happy with the result!

The loft room team were great. John was very respectful, and kept us informed on progress. Going the extra mile to make our new space amazing. They really managed to maximise the floor space to create a great sized master bed and en-suite.

Recently had a dormer loft conversion completed by Ash and Alfie of The Loftroom. From design all the way through to finishing the construction the team have been great. Quality of the work is outstanding, kept informed and updated all throughout the build, and always consulted about the specifics. Highly recommend.

We are delighted with our new loft conversion by The Loft Room. The whole process went incredibly smoothly, from the planning stage all the way through to decorating. A huge thank you to Vio, who led the team on our project. Vio and the team’s hard work and dedication has transformed our house. Vio kept everything running on track, maintained a high standard of work, and was always a pleasure to deal with. He and his team treated our home with respect and made sure the details were done right. And also, a special mention to all in the office whose excellent communication kept us in the loop throughout. We would heartily recommend The Loft Room to anyone looking to do a loft conversion. Thanks guys!
