A Proud Owner Of A Basement & Cellar Conversion In Clapham

Deciding to go ahead with a basement conversation is a big decision for anyone: it took us over eighteen months from when we started thinking about it until we actually decided to go for it, and then it was another six months before the building work could begin (as we live in Lambeth). During this time, we saw numerous basement companies and received a variety of quotes. From the outset, we were impressed with Advantage Basement & Cellar Company as they were totally professional and personable and also appeared to offer more of a bespoke service than some of their competitors and, importantly, they were competitively priced.

We’ve been involved with numerous building projects over the years and, without doubt, our recent basement conversion has been the most stress free and enjoyable (if you can call a building project that!). Yes, of course, there was dust, mess and noise, but not nearly as much as we had been expecting. Despite our basement being one of the most structurally challenging Advantage have undertaken, what made a real difference is that throughout the entire project, Advantage made us aware of when it would be exceptionally noisy/dusty etc, so we could plan around this, which was relatively easy to do, even with two small children.

Now, a couple of months after completion, we couldn’t be more delighted with the end result. We have around 1,000 extra square feet of great additional living space which is light and airy. It’s made up of a huge playroom/media room, a fabulous wine cellar, additional downstairs loo and sports storage cupboard, as well as a bedroom with ensuite shower room and a small kitchen so, in effect, a self contained flat.

We couldn’t recommend Advantage more highly for anyone that is planning to carry out a basement/cellar conversion and would be more than happy for any prospective clients to contact us with any questions/concerns or to come and have a look at the end result, which speaks for itself.
