Loft Conversion Cannock, Staffordshire

A Stunning Transformation

(Case study)

Composed by, with thanks to Mr. & Mrs. B Hednesford Cannock, Staffordshire.

Buckley’s completely transformed our loft space – and our house – over the summer of 2021. Three years on, we still agree that it is the best investment we could have made.

We were looking for the extra space to provide a further bedroom and living area, together with an En suite shower room. This increased space would maximize our footprint and make the most of our views over Cannock Chase towards The Wrekin.

We asked for several quotes for the conversion, and Buckley’s were far and away the most professional in terms of understanding our needs and providing quotes and initial drawings.

While COVID provided challenges in terms of material supplies and rising costs, the team expertly completed the project within the planned timescales, and on budget. We would have expected the final total cost to be slightly higher given the issues outside the team’s control, but Buckley’s honored their original quote, a testament to their business ethics.

The whole Buckley team were knowledgeable and professional throughout, from the initial quotation, through the design and planning process to the supervision and completion of the build. While we would have been happy to apply for planning ourselves, Buckley’s took out the hassle of the process by dealing direct with the Council.

Once planning had been signed off, the team worked quickly to order and deliver all the supplies required to completed the job. One of our concerns was that the conversion would not feel part of the existing house, but Buckley’s did their utmost to ensure that materials and finishes were an exact match. The sourcing and installation of the correct windows, doors, skirting, bannisters, electrical fittings and more have produced a seamless feel to the whole house.

As the project evolved, We were able to make a few key changes along the way, for example to accommodate the positioning of the new staircase as well as adding a new bannister to the first floor, and these were all effected quickly and professionally. Nothing was too much trouble.

We were initially concerned about the possible amount of upheaval from the build itself, but it was never as bad as we envisaged. Without exception, the team, made up of expert tradespeople, were friendly, punctual, professional and tidy, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Since the completion of the conversion, we have been so incredibly pleased with the new space, which doubles up as a lounge and bedroom, complete with the En suite. Thanks to the clever design, we also now have valuable roof storage using the remaining unconverted space.

We already enjoyed extensive views over Cannock Chase, but these have been enhanced further by the higher aspects of the loft.

We really cannot believe the difference the conversion has made to our house and it feels like it has always been there – inside and out. We spend more time here than anywhere else on the house, and it’s probably our favorite room. In the three years since it was completed, we have received so many positive comments from family, friends, other tradespeople and even passers-by, who have gone out of their way to compliment us on the transformation. We couldn’t be happier.

A HUGE thank you to the whole team at Buckley Loft Conversions for creating something REALLY special.
