Above and beyond what we expected

We recently had a loft transformation by Nick and Matt. The guys did a fantastic job and we valued the thought that went into the work they did. They thought about how we would use the space and planned the room around this such as light switches and storage. They were friendly, and very informative and were a pleasure to have in our home. They offered suggestions we hadn't thought about and went above and beyond what had been agreed at the initial consult to make this space somewhere we could use and utilise as well as brightening up the space. We are really happy with the work and would absolutely recommend them to anyone.

Absolutely delighted with the product…

Absolutely delighted with the product and service I received from The Loft Doctor.
From start to finish this is a fantastic company and I was very well looked after by the person who came out to measure up to the person who did the fitting.
This is a first class company using first class materials my loft is now a great space for storage very dry warm and safe.

I received 4 quotes and the Loft Doctor was the second cheapest I decided to use them because of the time the surveyor gave me at the initial visit. I got great advice and I was very confident that this man wanted the product to be right for me it wasn't just a hard sell.
No pressure from this company whatsoever.
On the day of fitting the man that came to do my job was a time served joiner he had all the right tools and he was very knowledgable infact I would describe him as an expert judging by how he got on with the job and the progress that was made ahead of schedule.

I would highly recommend The Loft Doctor to anyone that is looking to convert a loft from a cold damp dingy space to a lovely warm room that has now raised the ECP rating of my home.

Fantastic company I am a very happy customer.

Lovely company. Lovely people.

Really pleased with the service all the staff were so friendly and helpful from my initial query with Caroline right through to the work being done. Getting a quote was super simple and I really liked the home service to talk me through everything, it wasn’t rushed and I felt really comfortable that this was a company where things get done right.

Loft Boarding and ladder installation

Week before work was scheduled, they needed to delay by two weeks. However, we received clear communication throughout, work was completed to an excellent standard, and the fitter was friendly, clean and polite. Would recommend.

Another great installation!

A great installation by the Loft Doctor. At first, I was surprised to see Wes turn up on his own, as I expected a few people to be carrying out the work. But he did an amazing job and we’re really happy with it. Wes was really polite and great to talk to. He put down carpet protection and communicated with me throughout the day to check that I was happy with the work. Thanks very much. We’ll be highly recommending Wes and the team to our family and friends.

They have done an excellent job in my loft.
Mike who did all the joinery is a top man, friendly, polite and explained everything as he was going along.
Two more men came with Mike on the last day and fitted a large roof window, these men were also very professional and friendly.
Can not fault them.
Thank you to all at the Loft Doctor.
Look forward to using the new space.

From the initial survey and quote to completion

From the initial survey and quote we were kept informed and updated on possible installation dates.
The fitter "Nick" arrived on the agreed day and on time, he talked us through the process again and answered all our questions.
Once the dust covers were in place the fitter "Nick" set to work, it was going to be a 2 day job. Fast forward day 2. Job completed a very neat and clean installation, all sawdust and debris cleared from site.
Although you cannot see the work apart from the loft hatch we are very impressed on the standard of work provide by "Nick"

Basically they failed

Basically they failed
Basically, they never did what was agreed.
1. Surveyor came, and we agreed on what would happen.
2.Fitter failed to attend.
3.Fitter arrived, spent 2.5 hours, and left the job done.
4. Checked the work. It was shockingly bad.
5. After numerous phone calls and messages, I was told a surveyor would be out to check the installation.
6. The surveyor fails to turn up.
7. The surveyor attends and says the installation was bad and needed to be removed and re installing.
8. Fitter failed to attend.
9. Fitter arrived, spent 3.5 hours, and said it was all finished and left.
10. I checked that the loft had been re done, and it had been fitted higher. But it was just as bad as the 1st install. This time, they had cracked my ceiling.
11. Told I was wrong the cracks where not were they had been working (directly below, where they fitted the storage floor).
12. Numerous messages and phone calls to in the end I had decided I had allowed them enough chances and time to correct it.
13. Contacted bank who are investigating the whole thing including contract, messages, telephone calls, photos from before and after 1st install, and 2nd install.
14. So I have received my money back, from my credit card company, while this is investigated.
Best advice use your credit card, and be careful who you let do work on your property. I have no words I can say on here about loft doctors other than customers being aware of Rogue companies.

Yes, from your perspective I may seem difficult to deal with. That is I am not prepared to except a job your company did that in my opinion is unsafe and has caused damage. Then when I write my review I get telephone calls warning me about making negative reviews. Their seems to be a few other negative reviews online from other previous customers. Job was quoted at £973 but it was reduced by £200 at the end due to the fitter not having a wooden loft hatch. so in the end I paid £773.
I apologise for stating £950 instead of £973 on a review but it was never £1950 as stated by you.

Update: you used timber scant 3" x 2" (38mm x 63mm Finished Size) 2.4m long. Please stop lying by saying you used 6x2 timbers. Remedial work ? He removed the whole installed floor and started from scratch as he said it was not done right. If i was so happy with the floor after the 2nd install, how come i filed a complaint to your office. Also requested a refund from my credit card company due to the damage caused and the fact the floor is a complete mess.

Customers if you need a raised loft floor etc, please do your due diligence

Really sorry to read this Mr Thomas. As we replied to this review last year. So, as it's a duplicate I can only refer to my previous reply.
However, I can add that on the 16 January you left a review on a different review platform. stating you paid "£1950 for boarding only"
We believe all our work we carried out is fit for purpose and carries our Warranty.

Kind Regards

Loft Doctor Team.
