How to Find a Good Loft Conversion Company in East Barnet

One of the first things you need to consider when hiring a loft conversion company is their reputation. Many East barnet companies are not as reputable as their competitors, and you may want to consider checking out their work by asking your friends and neighbours. Having one point of contact is always better than having to deal with several different trades. This will also ensure that you are getting a good value for money.

If you are going to have a skylight installed, remember to follow the pitch line of your roof. The installation process involves scraping roof tiles and battens, putting in a frame, and then tiling it. Skylights are the cheapest way to increase the size of a room, but you should be sure to get permission before installing one. It is also important to consider the placement of windows when planning a loft conversion. A good rule of thumb is that you should have at least three quotes. Be sure to get measurements from at least three different companies, and remember to ask each loft conversion company if they quote on an accurate basis.

Before hiring a loft conversion company in East barnet, you should consider the legal requirements. Many homes in the UK have permitted development rights, which means that you do not need to seek permission for the work. The main exceptions are when the space that you add to the house is too large. If your property is in a conservation area or listed building, you should also check for any restrictions before proceeding.
