Repaint of kitchen; ceiling, doors & woodwork, walls , and changing the wooden cabinets to a high quality painted finish. The work was completed in a professional manner with vacuum sanding and spraying equipment . The kitchen cabinet doors and drawers were removed and prepared off site. Throughout good working practices were employed with protection of other areas and cleaning up after each day. The result has been a transformed kitchen for significantly less than a replacement.

How can someone tell if their loft is suitable for conversion?
All loft conversions need Buildings Regulation approval, regardless of whether planning permission is needed or not. A building control surveyor will inspect your work at various stages and will issue you with a completion certificate on final inspection.
If your home is semi-detached or terraced, you’ll need to notify your neighbour of your proposals if the works fall under the Party Wall Act requirements. For instance, if you are building in beams which will bear on the party wall(s).
Run us through the different stages in the loft conversion process - what’s involved?
The features that will decide the suitability of the roof space for a loft conversion are the available head height, the pitch and the type of structure, as well as any obstacles such as water tanks or chimney stacks.
Head Height
Take a measurement from the bottom of the ridge timber to the top of the ceiling joist; the useable part of the roof should be greater than 2.2m.
The Building Regulations impose no minimum ceiling height for habitable rooms. The headroom standard for stairs of 2m applies, but this can be relaxed to 1.9m or 1.8m on the edge of a stair if necessary.
Water Tank
Without the roof space for water tanks and plumbing, the heating and hot water system may have to be replaced with a sealed system. Unvented hot water cylinders make a better choice than replacing the boiler with a combi (combination) boiler but they do take up a cupboard-sized room, which you will have to find space and budget for.
Pitch Angle
The higher the pitch angle, the higher the central head height is likely to be, and if dormers are used or the roof is redesigned, the floor area can be increased.
A basic ‘room in roof’ loft conversion:
to the reinforcement of the floor
to add a couple of skylights
added insulation
a staircase to the loft
electrics, lighting and heating
fire safety measures to comply with Building Regulations such as fire doors and smoke alarms.
