Hi,

Anyone ever thinking of a loft conversion should look at the service we offer.


FULLY ORGANISED COMPANY

Unlike small builders and ?one man band operators?, we are committed to loft conversions only. All our staff have years of experience with key roles to enable your conversion from drawing stage to completion to run smoothly and professionally.

DESIGN SERVICE

Loft Life Room Conversions offer a professional design service, totally free of charge. We suggest alternative designs or take your ideas and develop them into workable solutions ensuring that the concept conforms to the latest Building Regulations.

IN HOUSE SPECIALISTS

Unlike many companies and local builders who have to sub-contract their drawings, our Drawing Office

consists of a full time surveyor and one other full time Draughtsman. These people are dedicated to the task of translating the Designer?s sketch into a detailed working drawing.

STRUCTURAL CALCULATIONS

We have our own engineer at the Loft Life Office who takes great care in designing the structure for your loft. Not just to get the best space and headroom, but also creating a safe structure which will last the test of time. All Loft Life structural calculations are produced with the aid of the latest in computer software technology, in line with all local authority specifications - giving us the edge when it comes to speed and accuracy.

CARPENTRY CRAFTSMEN

All our teams of loft converters are highly skilled craftsmen, not sub-contracted labour, each being selected by Loft Life not just for their fine skills but also their ability to blend in with the family atmosphere. This is reflected by their respect to our Client?s home whilst the loft is under construction.

SITE INSPECTIONS

Our own inspector visits your home during construction in order to ensure the local authority building control officer inspects and approves each critical stage. We will arange for a final inspection, that will result in you gaining full building control approval and completion certificate.

COSTING

Unlike many builders there are no hidden extra charges for a Loft Life conversion. Whatever final costs you agree with our Designer is what we are commited to, giving you your fully completed conversion.

10-YEAR GUARANTEE

We build our lofts so well that we are prepared to guarantee them for a full ten years and on top of that we are able to offer you an insurance backed underwritten guarantee scheme which falls in line with our own terms and conditions.

    • Does anyone know when the next SNT meeting is? I am fed up with my son being mugged on East Dulwich Grove! 
    • The issue must be everywhere at the moment. I was visiting a friend last week in Bermondsey, think we were walking  down Linton Rd & we dodged 7 dog poos. It was disgusting. 
    • Thanks for your message — I actually took the time to look into what CityHive does before posting my original comment, and I’d encourage anyone with questions to do the same. Yes, the Companies House filings are overdue — but from what I’ve gathered, this seems likely to be an accountant or admin issue, not some sign of ill intent. A lot of small, community-based organisations face challenges keeping up with formalities, especially when they’re focused on immediate needs like food distribution. Let’s not forget CityHive is a not-for-profit, volunteer-powered CIC — not a corporate machine. As for the directors, people stepping down or being replaced is often about capacity or commitment — which is completely normal in the voluntary and community sector. New directors are sometimes appointed when others can no longer give the time. It doesn’t automatically mean bad governance — it just means people’s circumstances change. CityHive’s actual work speaks volumes. They buy most of the food they distribute — fresh produce, essential groceries, and shelf-stable items — and then deliver it to food banks, soup kitchens, and community projects across London. The food doesn’t stay with CityHive — it goes out to local food hubs, and from there, directly to people who need it most. And while yes, there may be a few paid staff handling logistics or admin, there’s a huge volunteer effort behind the scenes that often goes unseen. Regular people giving their time to drive vans, sort donations, load pallets, pack food parcels — that’s what keeps things running. And when people don’t volunteer? Those same tasks still need to be done — which means they have to be paid for. Otherwise, the whole thing grinds to a halt. As the need grows, organisations like CityHive will inevitably need more support — both in people and funding. But the bigger issue here isn’t one small CIC trying to make ends meet. The real issue is the society we live in — and a government that isn’t playing its part in eradicating poverty. If it were, organisations like CityHive, The Felix Project, City Harvest, FareShare, and the Trussell Trust wouldn’t need to exist, let alone be thriving. They thrive because the need is growing. That’s not a reflection on them — it’s a reflection on a broken system that allows people to go hungry in one of the richest cities in the world. If you're in doubt about what they’re doing, go check their Instagram: @cityhivemedia. You’ll see the real organisations and people receiving food, sharing thanks, and showing how far the impact reaches. Even Southwark Foodbank has received food from CityHive — that alone should speak volumes. So again — how does any of this harm you personally? Why spend time trying to discredit a group trying to support those who are falling through the cracks? We need more people lifting others up — not adding weight to those already carrying the load.
    • Well, this is very disappointing. Malabar Feast  has changed its menu again. The delicious fish curry with sea bass no longer exists. There is now a fish dish with raw mango, which doesn't appeal. I had dal and spinach instead, which was bland (which I suppose I could/should have predicted). One of my visitors had a "vegetable Biriani" which contained hardly any vegetables. Along with it came two extremely tiny pieces of poppadom in a large paper bag.   This was embarrassing, as I had been singing Malabar's praises and recommending we ordered from there. The other mains and the parathas were OK, but I doubt we will be ordering from there again. My granddaughters wisely opted for Yard Sale pizzas, which were fine. Has anybody else had a similar recent poor (or indeed good!)  experience at Malabar Feast?
