How can someone tell if their loft is suitable for conversion?
At LLE Ltd, we begin by assessing one key factor: the height from the loft floor to the apex of the roof. Ideally, this should be a minimum of 2.2 metres to allow for comfortable headroom once the new floor and insulation are installed. But we can work around low height roofs too!!! We do the magic!!!
Our experienced team carries out precise on-site measurements and structural calculations to determine feasibility. We collaborate closely with structural engineers, architects, and—most importantly—you, the client, to design a conversion that’s not only practical and compliant but beautifully tailored to your needs.
Every loft is different. Our job is to unlock its potential—safely, smartly, and stylishly.
Run us through the different stages in the loft conversion process - what’s involved?
The Loft Conversion Process – Step by Step with LLE Ltd
At LLE Ltd, we guide clients through every stage of the loft conversion journey with clarity, precision, and professionalism. Here’s what’s involved:
1. Initial Site Survey & Feasibility Assessment
We begin with a detailed on-site inspection, measuring key dimensions—especially the floor-to-apex height—to confirm suitability for conversion.
2. Design Consultation & Client Briefing
We discuss your vision, lifestyle needs, and design preferences. Whether it's an extra bedroom, ensuite, or home office, we ensure your goals drive the plan.
3. Architectural Plans & Structural Design
Working with experienced architects and structural engineers, we develop technical drawings and load calculations, ensuring the design is safe, compliant, and functional.
4. Planning & Building Regulation Approvals
We handle all necessary planning permissions (if required) and ensure full building control compliance throughout the build. All structural works are signed off by inspectors.
5. Preparation & Structural Works
We install steel beams, new floor joists, and any necessary supports. Chimneys, water tanks, and insulation upgrades are addressed at this stage.
6. Roof Adjustments & Dormers (if applicable)
If needed, we add dormers, roof lights, or carry out hip-to-gable alterations to increase headroom and usable space.
7. Internal Works & Fit-Out
This includes partitioning, plumbing, electrics, plastering, and fitting windows, staircases, doors, and joinery. We work cleanly, professionally, and with minimal disruption.
8. Final Finish & Client Sign-Off
We complete all finishing touches to a high standard—painting, flooring, and fixtures. A final inspection is conducted to ensure everything meets building regs and your expectations.
From Empty Loft to Elegant Living Space—LLE Ltd Delivers, Every Step of the Way.
How long have you been in business?
About Me – Jay, Founder of LLE Ltd
I’m a qualified Construction Manager with over a decade of hands-on experience in the building industry. I founded LLE Ltd with a clear vision: to deliver high-quality, reliable construction services with a sharp focus on professionalism, safety, and precision.
Over the years, I’ve built a successful business that specialises in loft conversions, structural alterations, full property refurbishments, and more. I lead a skilled in-house team and work closely with architects, structural engineers, and building inspectors to ensure every project meets the highest standards—from initial concept to final sign-off.
Clients trust me because I take ownership, stay involved, and genuinely care about the outcome. Whether we’re modernising a family home or preparing a property for the market, I treat every job as if it were my own.
I don’t just build spaces—I build trust, value, and long-term relationships.
What guarantee does your work come with?
Our Guarantee – Peace of Mind Built In
At LLE Ltd, we stand firmly behind the quality of our work. All our projects come with a comprehensive workmanship guarantee, covering structural and installation work for added peace of mind. We also use trusted, high-grade materials that carry their own manufacturer warranties.
We work closely with local building control, structural engineers, and architects to ensure every element is compliant, signed off, and built to last. Should any issue arise within the guarantee period due to our workmanship, we’ll return promptly to put it right—no hassle, no delays.
Because when we build, we back it. Properly.
What do you love most about your job?
For me, the most rewarding part of this work is solving real problems for real people—and turning their vision into a beautifully finished reality. There’s something truly satisfying about walking a client through the transformation of their home, knowing we’ve made a lasting difference.
At LLE Ltd, we take genuine pride in what we do. We’re hardworking, hands-on, and we love every minute of the process—from the first measurements to the final finish. It’s not just about construction; it’s about creating spaces that work, inspire, and stand the test of time.
We build with purpose—and a passion for getting it right.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Before starting LLE Ltd, I found myself constantly stepping in to put right what rogue or careless builders had left behind. I saw the stress and disappointment this caused for clients—and I knew there had to be a better way.
That experience inspired me to build a company that values trust, craftsmanship, and respect above all else. I pay close attention to detail and take real pride in doing things properly, from the first conversation to the final finish. At LLE Ltd, we honour our clients’ homes, time, and expectations—because that’s how it should be.
I didn’t just want to build houses—I wanted to build trust, quality, and peace of mind.
