  • "Fast, honest and professional"

    Ben and his team have effectively carried out a full renovation of our Victorian maisonette, including a loft conversion. These are the nicest and most approachable builders you will meet, and will always take time to listen to what you need. Ben has a creative eye and will always suggest ideas you might not have thought of in order to get a good result and utilise your space to the best effect.

  • “Great experience and very efficient”

    Ben was very helpful and friendly throughout the whole process. Having never done a build before and being pretty clueless, the whole team were so supportive and explained everything to us. Everyone was really friendly, efficient, honest and super hard working. We were really lucky to have such a great team and we love our new home.

  • “Ahead of schedule and on budget”

    We recently had Ben and his team do our 4 metre kitchen extension and a loft conversion comprising of master bedroom and ensuite. Ben is a true professional, excellent at his job, from day one right through to the project’s completion. Ben was always available to answer questions and offer advice.

  • “Great work and fast.”

    Ben and his team added a loft extension to our house, and did some general refurbishing throughout. He understands why one wants things in a certain way, and is very good at perfecting it. No existing furniture or fittings was damaged or broken, even during heavy-duty work, despite the house being rather small and old.

  • “Honest, skilled, fast and courteous”

    Ben and his team added a two bedroom loft extension with bathroom to our house, which was completed on time and to agreed budget. We are very happy with the work. Ben and all the members of his team are very pleasant and friendly. The construction was very quick and dynamic, with initial build and plastering completed within 6 weeks which we and our neighbours were amazed at, though it did take longer to complete snagging.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Not every property is straightforward when it comes to basement conversions, but a lot more homes are suitable than people think.

    As basement conversion specialists, we'll come and assess your property first and give you an honest picture of what's possible, what's involved, and whether it makes sense for your home before you commit to anything.

  • It varies quite a bit depending on the size of the space, the condition of the existing structure, and what you want to use it for.

    A basement conversion in London is a bigger investment than most home projects, but it also adds significant space and value to your property. Once we've had a look, we'll put together a clear, itemised quote so you know exactly what you're paying for.

  • A typical basement conversion can take anywhere from a few months to longer, depending on the complexity of the work involved.

    Things like underpinning, waterproofing, and structural work all take time to do properly. As experienced basement contractors in London, we'll give you a realistic timeframe from the start and keep you updated throughout, no nasty surprises.

  • In many cases, basement conversions in the UK fall under permitted development, meaning you won't need full planning permission.

    However, it does depend on your property, your local council, and what changes you're making. We've carried out plenty of basement conversions across London and can point you in the right direction. We'd always recommend getting this confirmed before any work starts.

  • Basement work involves specific structural, waterproofing, and drainage expertise that not every builder has.

    Using a dedicated basement conversion company in London means the job is done properly the first time with the right materials, the right methods, and someone who understands what can go wrong and how to prevent it. It's the kind of project where cutting corners early can be very costly to fix later.
