We entrusted the team over summer to complete our bathroom renovation whilst we were away. We felt in very safe hands throughout the works as they kept us updated with progress. On return all of the work was completed to a very high standard and we’re really pleased with the final result. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with Bishops again.

Bishops carried out a complete renovation of a two bedroom flat to an impeccable standard. They were brilliant to work with from the initial quote to the end of the project. Ricky was an excellent project manager – I really appreciated that he kept me informed and answered all my questions whilst being great to communicate with. The work involved replacing a bathroom, kitchen, installing electric heaters, new carpets throughout and total redecoration of every room. Bishops take real care and pride in their work. I would highly recommend them. Thank you to everyone at Bishops.

This was the second time we have used this company and , as before, they did a great job redecorating our lounge, hall and bedroom. All the work was done on time and their staff were friendly and polite.

Loft room extension was completed very professionally and quickly. All contractors- plumbers, carpenters, plasterers, were co ordinated without us having do do anything and they even covered the stairs and landing to protect them from dust etc. Very pleased with the result.

Over the last year or so, Bishops have replaced the bathroom and kitchen in my flat. Although they may not be the cheapest, I would recommend them to ANYONE - friendly, responsive, honest, a pleasure to have around the house and completely trustworthy - definitely worth the money for the above and beyond work they do. Thank you to everyone involved in my new bathroom and kitchen - I love them both :)

Bishops completely renovated my toilet/utility room and did some work in adjacent bedroom and hallway. The work included making good lots of faulty and unsightly plumbing, tiling and flooring. I had a new sink and toilet installed, new flooring, tiling and a cupboard for washing machine. I am unbelievably happy with the result and the work throughout. Great attention to detail, fantastic communication and everybody tried to minimise the impact of the work on our day to day. They were honest, friendly, punctual, tidy and really made sure everything was perfect for us. So pleased!

Simply give us the architect and structural engineers drawings and we will have your loft conversion done to specifications in no time at all.

There are 5 main types of loft conversions:

Dormer loft conversion: this is the most common type of loft conversion and involves a square space coming out of the roof on one or both sides giving you lots of head height.
Mansard loft conversion: this involves altering the pitch of your roof to make it almost vertical (about 72 degrees to be precise). The remaining roof remains flat and windows are built into the slopes.
Roof light loft conversion: a small and usually the cheapest type of loft conversion. Where skylights are fitted and the internal area of the loft is reinforced with stairs added.
Hip to gable loft conversion: most suitable for bungalows or semi detached homes this is where the roof has a hip and where one end of that hip is extended to create a vertical wall.
Modular loft conversion: Ready-made loft conversions, typically constructed with a steel frame, are pre-fabricated off-site and then lifted into place by crane once the house’s roof has been removed.

All our work is done according to Building Regulations specific to the works involved and heath and safety legislation.

Features Of Loft Conversions

Typical features of loft conversions we have done include:

Juliet balconies – a popular feature of modern loft conversions.
En suite bathrooms- including all plumbing and tiling.
Walk in wardrobes -made to measure. See here for more details.
Steel works- an important but hidden additional feature of many loft conversions which is essential for structural integrity of your loft once it’s been converted.
Staircases – We can design and build bespoke staircases to fit your home perfectly. Most staircases we install are made of solid timber and installed to perfection. This includes your choice of bannisters and handrails. We can also install glass balustrades if your would like a more modern look.
Electrics – We can install bespoke lighting systems including night lights, mood lightings, concealed lightings and even audio systems such as sonos speaker systems. This includes smart home systems.
Fire safety – Heat and smoke detectors are fitted in your loft conversion as a standard criteria of building regulation. Most detector are mains fed so no need to change batteries every year. They do have a backup battery which needs changed once every 10 years though.
Insulation – As part of modern building regulations all walls are insulated as standard.
Velux windows – Industry standard velux windows can be fitted to maximise natural lighting and air flow.

Our greatest strength is our multi skilled work force. We can do it all for you end to end. You won’t have to chase other contractors for this and that- we’ve got you covered.
