Just bumping this thread as I have received quite a few private messages over the last six months or so regarding bad experiences with this company. Mainly - yes, this company has changed their trading name and now go by A1 Project Management Services Ltd - http://a1pms.co.uk/

Thanks for the recommendations

One year ago I decided to get my loft space converted. One of the places that I looked for local recommendations was this forum. I got a few quotes and decided to go with a company called A1 Loft Conversions. Despite them being the most expensive they seemed like they knew what they were doing. They?re based in Hersham, Walton-on-Thames but cover the much of the South East and had a kind of family run quality to them. This is their website: http://www.a1-loftconversions.co.uk Interestingly, the salesman also used this forum and had an email prepared of all the negative comments he could find about other loft conversion companies in the area. All was going well, I had the drawings done, planning permission granted and paid for two surveyors to grant Party Wall Agreements where I was unable to contact one of my neighbours. Unfortunately, when the builder came to start the job he realised that the drawings they had done were completely unsuitable for the structure of my property. After a month of back and forth with their office they wanted to change me an extra ?3000 to do the job correctly, despite the fact that I had signed a contract and agreed a price for the entire project. I declined their offer and spent the next three months trying to get my deposit back. They had also left some considerable damage to my property which they initially refused to repair, saying it wasn't their responsibility. They did eventually agree to put this right (three months later) but have still refused to cover cover any of the additional costs that I incurred due to their mistakes. During this time the company was also taken over by a new Managing Director who became almost impossible to get hold of, while no one else at the company seemed to know how to deal with the issue. All in all, one year later and I am back to square one and would like to share my bad experience back here on this forum with anyone else thinking of engaging with A1 Loft Conversions. In the meantime, if anyone can provide a recommendation for a good loft conversion company, I would appreciate any suggestions.

I've been meaning to create a new post about a company called A1 Loft Conversions. Feel free to PM me for details, in case you do speak with them. In the meantime I would seriously recommend avoiding them.

Hi, I am looking for someone who can service/repair a Vaillant boiler. Any local recommendations welcome Thanks
