Touchstone Lofts becomes the easy choice in Google search - Choose the right loft conversion company

June 5, 2011 - PRLog -- Choosing the right builder is pretty difficult as there appears to be so many nightmare stories associated with the building trade. Customers are faced with a difficult choice as the promises on  builder websites cannot be verified. Cowboy builders,  Channel 5’s series does little to improve the reputation of the building trade and further adds to customer apprehension and concerns.

A loft conversion is normally a very complicated project, there are the planning and building regulations to comply with and the overall design will have a significant effect on the resale value of your home. Whilst it is common knowledge not to accept the cheapest price, the most expensive price is also to be challenged. I can recall a job we priced for that the customer refused over a competitor’s price. The competitor’s price was cheaper by half and this infuriated the customer. I later heard from the building regulation officer that the whole loft had to be stripped out as the builder had used the wrong floor joists.

So how does a customer choose a builder for its loft conversion, firstly choose a specialist loft conversion company, not a general builder who will be limited in expert knowledge. Secondly choose a FMB Masterbond builder, not just a FMB builder with limited knowledge. There are around 11,000 FMB members and less than 900 (8%) are Masterbonded. This very prestigious accreditation means the company has been thoroughly vetted, accounts, insurances, directors checked out and the building work has been independently inspected by the BBA (British Building Aggregate).

Touchstone Lofts were “Highly Commended” for “Outstanding Quality Craftsmanship and Excellent customer service” National Master Builder of the Year awards 2010 organised by the Federation of Master Builder. This is a award open to every builder in the UK and over 500 nominations were received . Whilst being nominated is an amazing achievement, winning an award is a remarkable and spectacular recognition. Touchstone Lofts is also recommended by 100% (Qype) and 91% (Review centre) of its recent customers, as listed on independent review sites.
