Case Study: Loft Conversion in Kingswood, Surrey
31 March 2025

Our Director Andy takes us through the transformed space in Kingswood.

Project Overview:

At Home Improvements & Construction Ltd (HICL), we recently undertook a comprehensive renovation and loft conversion project for Laurent and Claire, whose family was looking to modernise and enhance their wonderful property in The Glade, Kingswood, Surrey. The project involved replacing a leaky roof, updating all windows and external doors, converting the loft, improving insulation, and applying a new silicon render to give the home a fresh and contemporary appearance.


Client Objectives:

Laurent and Claire aimed to improve their home's energy efficiency, functionality, and aesthetic appeal. While it initially started as a roof repair project, it expanded into a full-scale renovation to ensure long-term durability and modern living standards.


Discovery of HICL:

Laurent found HICL through word of mouth, a testament to our company's strong reputation and quality work in South-West London.


Quality of Work & Final Outcome:
Laurent was highly satisfied with the final result, stating that the work was completed to a high standard, with no noticeable areas requiring improvement. The renovations not only enhanced the property’s structural integrity but also significantly modernised its overall look and feel.


He said: ''The work has been completed with a high standard - we haven't seen anything we feel should have been done better.''


Client Recommendation:
Impressed by HICL’s workmanship, Laurent enthusiastically recommended the company to his neighbours who had enquired about the project during construction. His endorsement highlights HICL’s ability to deliver high-quality construction services that exceed client expectations.


We are pleased that this successful renovation project underscores our expertise in loft conversions, renovations, and home improvements. By combining expertise with a dedication to customer satisfaction, Home Improvements and Construction Ltd continues to be a trusted choice for homeowners looking to invest in their properties.
