    I did this to my attic , converted it to a loft. I’m so glad I did. I not only gained a bunch of space; I actually lowered my energy bills cause I increased my home r-value and overall energy efficiency. I use my space for a play area and massive storage entertainment room with two massive solar velux skylights. Again sooo glad we did, the extra room allows my wife and I to keep our kids mess and toys contained to this huge room upstairs that we don’t have to rush to clean up when we have guests. Converting the attic to a finished loft untimely increased my household earnings cause now we don’t have to rush to move to increase our space. We can keep our monthly expenses the same as far as cash flows as our earnings increase. When we sale, we’ll gain the benefits of the home improvements.
    I would strongly recommend everyone consider this sort of home upgrade if your planning to live at your residence for 5+ years and before solar panels IMO.

    Rather odd way to do the roofing, first you sort of prime the OSB, than a thin sheet is laid into that primer, which is eventually blackened after the capping rooftiles have been mounted. Definitely would choose another method.
    Same for the shower/bathroom, where is the dispersion primer? In the corner of the shower the plywood is immediately covered in a grey elastic product, which to my knowledge needs a primer before it is applied. On the opposite the tiles are glued on the plywood without visible dispersion primer. Here too I would definitely choose another method.
    Overall impression; it appears as like a contractor is doing too much on this job.

      All details in the description, but just for reference from what I've heard for a builder it generally costs them around 15 - 20K in materials, if the house is covered in scaffolding that's another 4-5K. Everything is else is labour costs and profits. Prices also depend on location, but that price is pretty cheap.

    The bathroom walls were not waterproofed properly. This is what happens when you use cowboy brown builders.

    Generally a nice job. Sorry to pick fault but the new landing at the top of the stairs looked a mess. As if the flooring had been done from off-cuts.

      Geek Street the wires running across the bathroom wall near the door should not of run across the middle. They should of been within 150mm of the wall and ceiling or directly in line with the light switch and then in the corner. As a new installation the new wiring should be protected by an RCD so from a safety point of view, it shouldn’t be a problem. Like I said the end results were good though

    Like to see positive comments mostly from people that don't have experience and mostly negative from traders 😜😜😜😜.
    In my opinion there are some things that have not been done up to the standard. Like the bathroom ply etc. But overall looks really good.
    Unfortunately in a year time tiles will need to be done again as probably they won't stick to the walls for long.

    • @GeekStreet
      @GeekStreet  4 роки тому

      Most beds come flat packed and you can assemble them in the room. Same goes for mattresses these days, most come in a vacum packed roll which expand when you do the coverings. Move with the times.
