About Access Loft Conversions

Access Loft Conversions provides a full range of loft conversion services for homeowners and landlords, creating space for extra bedrooms, bathrooms or playrooms and offices, complete with a wide range of Velux and dormer windows.

The company deals with every aspect of a project, calling in expert builders, joiners, plumbers, electricians and roofers - in short, all the trades to complete the job.

Access Loft Conversions has now moved into franchising, allowing founders, Paul and Chris Barber, to expand the business to cater for homeowners throughout the UK who are seeking to add space and value to their homes.

The company has a core of individuals who can deal with all aspects of such a project and is looking for franchisees who strive to reach the same exceptional standards. The head office continues to evolve as the franchise network expands and the project lists grow.

How does the Access Loft Conversions franchise model work?

 
The cost of an Access Loft Conversions franchise is £15,000 (plus VAT), which includes initial induction training so new franchisees can hit the ground running.

There is extensive on-site support when the business launches, including digital and local marketing activity, plus a website with the franchisee’s own email address and all the necessary Access Loft Conversions branding, including uniform vehicle livery and signage.

Franchisees are assigned their own exclusive territory and if there is more work than one franchisee can cover, the company will assign another team for back up support.

The company has developed a franchise that presents a significant opportunity for franchisees to operate their own loft conversion company successfully, backed with the security of the company’s own robust infrastructure.

Access Loft Conversions provides all the necessary contracts, permissions and licenses for franchisees to start a project, finds customers and creates brand awareness through advertising.

In summary, Access Loft Conversions delivers the jobs, plans and contracts and a comprehensive specification for clients, as well as providing a financial structure for clients - notably, managing invoicing during the stages of a project so that franchisees can focus on the construction itself.

Initial consultations with clients are done within a few days of them getting in touch and quotes are sent out usually within 48 hours, with project acceptance forms being signed digitally.

This franchise opportunity is not limited to joiners: Those with site management experience, or trades experience as an electrician, plumber, roofer or general builder, can also make suitable franchisees.

What locations or territories is Access Loft Conversions looking to operate in?

Homeowners all over the UK are looking to have their lofts converted, so there are territories available nationwide.

 

Why is a Access Loft Conversions franchise a good investment? 

Loft conversions are a big part of the UK home improvement market.

A loft conversion could increase a property’s worth by up to 30 per cent, according to reports by the Nationwide Building Society and other lenders. Extra living space is something the average homeowner is always looking to gain and with increasing numbers of people working from home a dedicated home office is also proving a popular use for lofts.

Franchisees who join the Access Loft Conversions network are tapping into 25 years of experience in the sector. The company’s dedicated franchise team has extensive industry knowledge and ensures all the systems and processes are in place to support a new franchisee from day one. 

The average British homeowner’s obsession with improving his or her property shows no sign of abating and with the buying and selling of property an expensive proposition, often extending a home is the preferred option.

How in demand are loft conversion services right now?

A recent survey by MoneySuperMarket found 42 per cent of Brits would prefer an extension or loft conversion compared to moving house.

With a loft conversion, property owners and landlords can create an extra room, make use of wasted space and adding value to a property, all without the huge costs of moving house.

Loft conversions do not require planning permission as they fall under permitted development rights (while there are limitations on the cubic content allowed under permitted development, up to 40m³ is usually fine), giving homeowners more freedom to extend their own space as and when they wish.

Conversions are completed quickly and promptly by dedicated loft fitters with the minimum of disruption to the rest of the household and because of its reputation for high quality workmanship Access Loft Conversions benefits from word of mouth referrals, which has long been one of the best ways to grow a business.
