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.

We are delighted with our new loft space! Our team leader, Mihai, was fantastic and kept us informed about progress throughout. Everyone who came to work on the space was friendly and communicative, and gave us advice about what might work best. Together, the team created a superb space with two bedrooms and a bathroom which are all spacious and finished to a very high standard. Mihai took time to make sure that everything was finished as we wanted it to be and went the extra mile to ensure downstairs where they had broken through was finished and integrated with the existing decor. The office team at The Loft Room were very helpful in keeping us up to date and checking in to make sure that we were happy with how everything was going. It made such a difference using a company who do loft conversions day in day out as it meant that everything ran smoothly, the project was managed for us and the build ran to the time scale presented to us from the start. We would highly recommend The Loft Room to anyone who is thinking about creating a new space.

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.

How much does a loft in South West London cost?

A question often asked by homeowners is about the average cost of loft conversions in South West London. While every project is unique, loft conversions in South West London typically range from £35,000 – £100k+ depending on several factors.

Factors impacting the final cost include the type of conversion, the size and structure of your property, planning requirements, and the specification of finishes you choose. For example, a simple rooflight conversion will generally cost significantly less than a larger dormer or hip-to-gable conversion with an en-suite bathroom.

At The Loft Room, we provide clear, detailed quotations with no hidden surprises, so you’ll know exactly what’s included before any work begins. Our experienced team can guide you through the options available and help you find the most cost-effective way to maximise the space and value of your home.

Planning permission & building regulations

Many loft conversions in South West London fall under Permitted Development Rights, meaning planning permission often isn’t required. However, requirements can vary depending on your property type, location, and whether you fall within a conservation area or article 4 direction.

Across South West London, different London borough councils such as Richmond upon Thames, Wandsworth, Kingston upon Thames, Merton, Sutton and Hounslow each have their own planning considerations and local guidance, which we take into account from the very start of your project.

Regardless of planning status, all loft conversions must fully comply with Building Regulations to ensure structural safety, fire compliance, insulation standards, and overall build quality.

We manage the entire process on your behalf, including:

  • Planning applications (if required) with your local London borough council
  • Building regulations approval and inspections
  • Party wall agreements with adjoining neighbours
  • Liaising with local planning departments throughout the project

Our experience working across South West London means we understand exactly how different councils assess loft conversions helping to streamline approvals and avoid unnecessary delays.

FAQs

Most loft conversions in SW London take between 8 and 12 weeks to complete, depending on the complexity of the project. Larger or more bespoke designs may take longer.

Many properties in South West London, including Victorian and Edwardian terraces, are well suited to rear dormer loft conversions. Semi-detached and detached homes may also benefit from hip-to-gable or L-shaped dormer conversions, depending on the roof structure.

Many loft conversions in South West London can be completed under Permitted Development rights, meaning planning permission is not usually required. However, all loft conversions must comply with Building Regulations to ensure the work is safe and structurally sound. Larger extensions, mansard loft conversions, properties in conservation areas, or listed buildings may require planning permission. During your consultation, we will advise on exactly what approvals your project will need.

In most cases, no. The majority of our clients remain in their homes throughout the construction process. We work hard to minimise disruption and keep your home clean, safe, and functional.

Yes. A loft conversion is one of the most effective ways to increase the value of a property in South West London. While every home is different, a well-designed loft conversion typically adds 10–25% to a property’s value, particularly when it creates an additional bedroom and bathroom.

In areas such as Wimbledon, Richmond, Twickenham & Teddington, where space is at a premium, loft conversions often deliver particularly strong returns. A rear dormer loft conversion that adds a master bedroom with an en-suite can be especially attractive to buyers and families looking for extra living space.
