We recently had a loft conversion with Unique Lofts and I would highly recommend. Very professional and courteous team, communication was great, on time and work completed on schedule even with additional work being carried out. We’re very happy with the end result, rooms more spacious than we expected (head height in particular) and all completed to a very high standard. The project did come in above our budget, but this is due to additional work we requested and some unforeseen work, all of which was explained fully by the team and options were provided before agreeing on the best way forward. Overall we’re very satisfied and I would highly recommend. More...

Mark and his team completed our hip to gable loft conversion in September. We employed them as Mark was clearly interested in our project and made suggestions which we took on board. The pricing was good and they came in on budget. We had Michael as lead builder and he became part of the family, always on time and kept us up to date on progress with the various trades. Can’t speak highly enough of him. They have done a great job and we would recommend them. The extra space is fantastic and we are delighted with the outcome. More...

Ben and his team were really helpful and communicative through the whole project. They finished in the time quoted and kept us informed with updates daily and we could always get hold of them on WhatsApp too. They were courteous, respectful and did a great job. Mark was always available too and happy to answer our question. The work was completed on time, to a high standard and within the quote given to us. We are really pleased with our new loft and would highly recommend Unique Lofts. More...

I would highly recommend Unique Lofts and was lucky to find them after another firm let us down. Our team were Ben, Martin and Connor who have been considerate, incredibly skilled and hard working. Even our neighbours commented on what nice guys they were. Ben was our main contact and kept me updated, followed up on my enquiries and turned up when they said they would. Every trades person Unique used turned up on time, cleaned up after themselves, were professional and very good at their jobs. Unique invoiced exactly as quoted and were a pleasure to work with. Thank you Unique Lofts! More...

Had a very positive experience with Mark and the Unique Lofts team for our loft conversion. I would highly recommend them. Michael and Brad (our team) were friendly, dedicated and hardworking. Our neighbours, who had the skip chute cross their garden, also shared how considerate and friendly they were. Michael kept me in the loop, followed up on my enquiries and gave some really helpful advice in moving airing cupboards and opening up the loft space for more natural light. All in all, highly recommended. More...

A big thank you to Rob and Sam for our new loft. We were recommended by a friend in Radlett and we love our new bedroom and bathroom. Sam ran the project daily and Rob and Mark are also on hand to speak whenever we needed them. We will be using them for our extension next year. Thanks all. More...

Highly recommend Unique Lofts. Ben and his team did a great job on our double dormer loft conversion with shower room. Basic quote accurate with pricing of any extras/upgrades clearly explained and agreed in advance. Wasn’t looking forward to doing the build with my two young kids around but Ben and his team were considerate and easy to have around which helped a lot. Communication was very good and Ben and his team were always very responsive to giving advice and ideas about how things could be done and sorted any issues promptly. Really happy with the end result and having an amazing new floor in our home. More...

Met with Mark last year and decided to use unique lofts in April. Work was good and completed in just over 6 weeks. Only thing was we had to wait for bathroom equipment so make sure this is ordered asap. Del and the team are great though and Mark was on hand whenever we needed him. Recommended. More...

Fantastic company to deal with. Mark came round and explained the whole process from start to finish. I saw 4 other companies but unique lofts were by far the most knowledgeable. I also found the checkatrade reviews helpful which none of the other companies had. The works took 7 weeks in total and although there is disruption Sam and his team kept any mess to a minimum. Stage payments were kept to timescales and there were no unexpected extras. Have already recommended to two other people in our street. Thanks to Mark, Sam and the team we love our new bedroom and bathroom. More...

Hi mark. Sorry it's taken a while to review we've been manic with the baby ! We employed Unique Lofts as they guaranteed the works would be fully completed in 8 weeks as my wife was expecting our first child and we were really impressed with Mark's knowledge and previous catalogue of work. The build itself took just over 6 weeks and then with carpet fitting and painting, Darren who Mark recommended was amazing and finished the loft in 4 days !!! The whole process was 3 days short of 8 weeks and we started to move furniture up in the loft. With Mark and Billy's guidance we changed our minds to 2 bedrooms and bathroom which work perfectly. The communication was fantastic as I work long hours and my wife spent most of the last few weeks at her mums. We are so pleased and when we do our extension Mark will be the first person we speak to. Friends have already asked for quotes and they cant believe the space we've created.Special thanks to Billy as well who was our on site project manager who was brilliant.All is all a great set of guys. Cheers Leon. More...

Was referred after praise from a friend, and they did not disappoint. Mark was always on call for any questions and our builder Ben kept communication open throughout. We had some extra charges due to unexpected problems in the build but at all points this was explained clearly. Really happy with results. Any snags have been resolved quickly. Really honest bunch!!!

When looking for a builder for my loft conversion my main aim was to find someone honest, reliable and professional and my experience of Unique Lofts was that they were all of these things. The team in charge of the build were experienced, approachable and committed to doing a good job. The job started in mid-August 2018 and went until late Oct/Early November and everything went to plan. I now have a converted loft that I am extremely happy with. I would recommended Unique Lofts unreservedly. More...

I can honestly say it was a pleasure to have Unique Lofts carry out my Loft Conversion. The Team I was given (Ben and Martin) were incredible. Not only were they timely, clean and tidy and great work, I could ask them anything and it was never a problem. Their suggestions and knowledge was amazing. Sadly I suffered the death of my father towards the end of the build and that's when you really are aware that you have picked the best people. Their kindness, consideration and respectfulness was exemplary.The price quoted was the price paid there were no oh but this is extra.Thank you so much Ben, Martin and Mark More...

Lovely main contractors Ben and Martin. Arrived on time. Both guys gave valuable suggestions for maximising the space we had. They worked hard and provided little touches to the finish of the build without quibbles. Had a few glitches with other sub contractor ie: plasterer, but would suggest to future clients to not accept weekend work as it can make it a tiresome process. I did agree to this but if I could do it again I would definitely Say no. Electrician, plumber and roofer were all excellent. A Great team overall and a build wouldn’t be a build with out the odd hitch. Very pleased, THANKS! More...

We received 4 quotes for a complicated loft conversion, which included lowering upstairs ceilings, a chimney breast removal and first floor rewiring on top of a double dormer containing a large bedroom and shower room. Unique lofts were a fairly easy choice. Their price was very good and the company owner Mark was very knowledgeable and likeable. Mark arranged the whole job for us, from architect who submitted panning permission on our behalf, to Jamie the project manager, Stuart the job supervisor, Carl, Stuart's regular team mate and a host of friendly, punctual and skillful tradesmen who arrived on time, without fuss, treated our house respectfully, were easy to get on with and of course most importantly have done a fantastic job in just 2 months, half of which was in a heatwave! Whatsapp messages were exchanged most days, our opinion was sought at every step, the guys were never condescending, guidance was given, payments were made in gradual amounts as each part of the job was completed and if ever there were minor issues discovered they were rectified quickly and without and fuss. I couldn't recommend Unique lofts more highly. They put your mind at rest, their work is fantastic and their prices are extremely competitive. More...

Seen a dozen or so loft conversion companies. Some were straight in and out without taking measurements or seeming to know what they were doing and others who were professional simply priced me out due to their London centric view on cost. Mark was the most knowledgeable and gave me detailed descriptions of everything, including fire and building regulation requirements which I wasn't yet aware of, before I had even agreed to use him. His quote was the most competitive and I felt most comfortable with his trustworthiness so decided to choose Unique Lofts.The team did a fantastic job, giving us a brand new en suite bedroom in the previously storage only space. I am so happy with the finish due to the extremely high level of workmanship used throughout. Any small issues that I wasn't happy with were rectified. I always felt sure that any aspect, however small, not up to standard (and trust me, I am very fussy) would be sorted out, as Mark always made it his priority to get the tradesmen back to keep me content. That is the great thing about this company - you can always be sure you'll end up with exactly what you wanted in the first place. There were also many bespoke tasks that I wanted to add on top of the original plan and there was never any fuss about getting it all done.I wanted to use a company that managed everything for me, from planning, design and actual work to building regulations completion. Unique Lofts offer the whole package, which takes away all the stress from the client. I can't recommend Mark enough and it was the easiest and best decision I made. More...

quote was competitive and work was too a great standard. The stand out factor was the little touches the teams discussed with us whilst the build was going on. The little tweaks like an in-built bookcase above the stairs and a slightly bigger velux made the build much more usable once complete.

1. Scaffold is erected.
2. Delivery of materials and steels beams and new timber floor joists installed.
3. Dormer is built and New stairs are installed from the existing 1st floor to the new loft floor.
4. All insulation is cut and placed in the new structure.
