Used BestBuilders to find a loft specialist near Poole - highest-priced quote actually had the cheapest spec - the breakdown told the story. Dual-purpose handrail to the new staircase doubles as the loft balustrade. We moved out for two weeks during the steels and roofing - the rest was bearable. Final bill ยฃ59080. Loft now genuinely feels like part of the house, not bolted on.
