Loft Conversion Costs - London

[Firsttimebuyer192]

Can anyone share rough costs they incurred for building a loft conversion on a Victorian mid terrace recently please? Preferably London based and would be great to know what it included in terms of decorated/tiled bathroom or not.

We’ve just been quoted £105k not including VAT and not including electrics, plumbing or sanitary ware.

Woah that's pretty steep. We did a few months back, based in south London. Went for a Dormer style loft conversion, bedroom and bathroom.

Quotes ranged from 75k-90k, we used LoftCompare to get the quotes. And then explored each one in detail. And invited 3 of the options to properly review it, got reviews from others on each company. Final quote was closer to 85k +VAT.

Pretty expensive currently. We used the Loft conversion costs page to get a base understanding then reached out through them, also got a couple of local companies found on google but found the companies via the comparison a little more trusted and seemed to have legit sites/reviews and one of our neighbours had used one. So helped us trust the process a little more.

But 105k potentially is reasonable depending on the size, number of windows and London prices too are wild.

I would try and find a builder that specialises in loft conversions rather than a company. Let me see if I can find you the number of these guys that were based in Bristol but they would travel to London. They did a spectacular job of a ladies on Instagram.
