What should I share about my attic?
Tell us how you hope to use the space, what access is available and what work you are considering. Photos or existing plans can help explain the attic, but you can start with a short description.

Attic conversions
Explore how your attic could work for your home.
Tell us how you hope to use the attic and we can discuss the building work, insulation, plastering, carpentry, electrics and finishes for a written scope. Specialist trades can be arranged where needed. Work can be phased, with evening or weekend work agreed project by project.
What to discuss at your visit
- How you hope to use the space and access to it
- Plans from your appointed architect or engineer, if available
- Whether phasing or agreed evening or weekend work would help
Questions about attic conversions
Can you confirm whether my attic is suitable for that use?
Suitability depends on the individual property and intended use. Customers appoint their own professionals for drawings and architectural, structural or planning advice; VNS builds to their plans.
What should I ask my appointed professionals about access and stairs?
Ask them to assess the proposed access and stair arrangement for the intended use and the specific property. VNS can discuss the construction scope once the relevant design and advice are available.
What can an attic-conversion quotation cover?
The agreed scope can include insulation, plastering, carpentry, flooring and electrics, as agreed, with specialists arranged where needed. Share available plans, the intended layout and finishes so the site visit can help identify inclusions and items that need professional input.
What helps when comparing quotations?
Compare quotations against the same plans and scope. Check the stated building work, finishes, inclusions, exclusions and assumptions, and ask your appointed professionals about unresolved design or suitability questions.
Can the work be phased or scheduled outside weekdays?
Work can be phased, and evening or weekend work can be agreed for an individual project. Consultations, site visits and quotations are free; changes or additional costs are agreed before extra work begins.
