Highlights
"Amber Lofts lead by David are an excellent team of builders who take pride in their projects. High quality workmanship guaranteed. Excellent time keeping. Clean and tidy. Hard working and very friendly. The work was completed whilst we were working from home with minimal disruption to us. Excellent planning and thinking throughout. High recommended!"
"David and his team completed our loft extension this summer and we were really delighted with their work. David was recommended to us by a friend who had also used Amber Lofts for their loft extension locally and we found their quote reasonable compared to others. What made David and the team stand apart from others builders and trades people we have used is that the communication was very good, the building work was also excellent; the team were genuinely proud to show you the work that was completed. David and the team worked around our young family and we’re flexible and trustworthy. Thank you."
"Amber lofts built a new bedroom and ensuite into the loft of my Victorian terraced house. The work was carried out to a very high standard, with great attention to detail and a very good quality of workmanship. They were also very open to working with my ideas and went to great trouble to source and fit an opaque glass wall/door between the bedroom and ensuite, which they hadn't done before. I would highly recommend them"

Before you hire a builder
Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
Want an extra legitimacy check?
Run the Cowboy Checker on Amber Lofts Limited before you contact them.
