โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…

Rear-dormer with cathedral ceiling on our 1960s semi in Barnsley. Solid-oak fixed staircase, no creaks, no bouncy treads, building-control approved. Came in at ยฃ73400 across 14 weeks. Twelve-year structural warranty in writing on the new beam.

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…

Used BestBuilders to find a loft specialist near Barnsley - shortlisted on accreditation - kept FMB and CHAS-registered firms only. Soundproofing the new floor was a priority and the spec they used genuinely works. Builder agreed weekly draw-down payments against milestones - cash-flow clarity. Final bill ยฃ58240. Stamp duty saved by extending up rather than moving up.

Through a full winter, no heat loss problems, no condensation on the rooflights. Builder we found via BestBuilders in Barnsley suggested a wider staircase opening - a small change with a big impact. Total ยฃ63560. EPC went up to a B - the new insulation spec made all the difference.
