Carshalton Loft Extension

CS Lofts constructed this hip to gable loft conversion for a growing family in Carshalton. The additional space allowed us to create a new master bedroom with an ensuite large enough to accommodate both walk in shower and free standing bath.

Hear from the clients

“From our first interaction (the in person quote) and throughout our project we have been hugely impressed by everyone at CS Lofts. They are a family business and their care, attention and professionalism shines through. You are provided with a fixed quote, a comprehensive quote sheet and contract before going ahead, which is so refreshing to see exactly what will be done, and everyone is clear from the outset.“

“Richard was fantastic as our project manager, a real ‘can-do’ attitude and problem solver going above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction at every stage, including the aftercare provided long after the project had finished. Louise was always contactable and so helpful moving our work start date when our house purchase was delayed. Luke and Lewis (our 1st fix team) were so polite and professional – it was a pleasure having them around. Carpenters Luke and Gil (2nd fix) are very skilled and did a fantastic job finishing with great attention to detail, especially fixing complex sliding doors we had chosen. Their recommended tiler, Brian’s work was also impeccable. Too many individuals to name them all. CS Lofts completed the buildings regs approval for us and coordinated all the tradespeople very impressively, especially over the Christmas period.“

“We have no hesitation in highly recommending CS Lofts to anyone looking for a caring, professional and quality company. We’re chuffed!“
