Steve Tucker impressed us throughout the entire building process. While not the cheapest, his quote was certainly the most detailed and thorough. It also was by no means the most expensive, and included allowances for finished items such as tiles, doors and bathroom fittings. We’d also seen a neighbour’s loft and they recommended him without reservation. All of this gave us the confidence to book him and we’re so happy we did since we’ve now got a loft space that’s even better than we’d hoped for. Steve and Lewis were always friendly, helpful and ridiculously punctual. By initially going in and out of the loft via scaffolding, we avoided most of the dust and rubble of previous building work. When they eventually cut through into the house, they did it behind heavy dust screens. What little mess there was within the house was always tidied up, swept away and mopped up before the end of each day. We found it very hard to imagine how our house was going to look with new stairs and how we were going to fit a bedroom, landing and bathroom up in the loft. Steve very patiently took the time to answer our questions by drawing sketches and even laying out the lengths of wood so we could see where the walls would eventually go. Just as well he did as I think we changed the position of the doors, all the walls and even the toilet about half a dozen times. Steve arranged everything from the scaffolding and skip hire through to all material deliveries, all electrical work and the plasterer. We were left with a fully-fitted bathroom and all we’ve had to do since is paint the walls and move in.
TLC finished the work a week early and on budget. We really couldn’t be any happier with the end result.
