"It turned out much better than I ever imagined it could have done."
Phil (Lancashire)

The conversion in Preston (Lancashire) was to a detached house for use as non-habitable storage office. There were no plans requird. The loft is already insulated and has a roof support in the middle of the space.

To preserve loft height the central support remains in place (else a reinforced steel joist would be required along the apex).

Client is very happy with the conversion and how it has been carried out. If prospective clients require a recommendation he may be contacted directly.

  1. Preservation of insulation
