Week 6 on our Wood Green loft conversion
It’s been a busy summer and we’ve got some overdue updates from the various projects we’re working on, starting with this one.
Roofing is complete and the plastering is done, so this week has been all about the staircase, the piece that ties the whole conversion together.
A brand new staircase has gone in to give access up to the loft, built and fitted from scratch with turned newel posts and spindles to match the character of the rest of the house. You can see it winding up from the first floor landing, past the existing stairs below, right up into the new space.
Upstairs, the rooms are plastered and drying out nicely, with skirting and door linings already in and the first fire door hung. Once the plaster’s fully cured we’ll be moving on to flooring, painting and second fix, the stage where it really starts to look like finished rooms rather than a building site.
Getting a new staircase in cleanly is one of the trickier parts of any loft conversion, especially in period properties in North London where space and existing stairwells can be tight, so it’s always satisfying to see it done well.
More updates to follow as this Wood Green loft conversion progresses. Have a look through our other work on the website (link in bio) and get in touch through the contact form if you’d like a free quote.
