“We found Richard to be efficient, hard working, polite, professional and reliable. We are very happy with our lovely new living space. We also found Richard to be very helpful in answering our questions and queries along the way.”

Says: Ralph and Pauline, Brighton Loft Conversion, 2010

Rich is a great guy, very trustworthy (we gave him keys)…

“Rich converted the loft at our 1930’s semi, and created two fantastic bedrooms and a bathroom. The thing that amazed me most was how little disruption there was to the rest of the house – he went in and out of the roof for access. Rich is a great guy, very trustworthy (we gave him keys) so much so he has since converted our kitchen to a kitchen diner by removing a wall and redecorating, thanks.”

Says: M & J Long, Brighton Loft Conversion, 2011

He has a wide range of skills and knowledge which he used to help build a loft conversion…

“Rich was a key part of this successful project providing pragmatic ideas, advice and enthusiasm. He has a wide range of skills and knowledge which he used to help build a loft conversion, bathrooms, kitchen, stud walls and sound insulating false ceilings. Rich is reliable, friendly and hard working. I thoroughly recommend Rich and hope to work with him again on similar projects. Pictures of the project are available.”

“Rich is helpful and trustworthy, listening to our needs and advising us every step of the way. He dealt with everything from the architect, the building regulations and everything else. We are very pleased with our new bedroom. Thanks again.”

Richard… liaised with the Council Building Inspector and completed the installation…

“Richard Jackson’s immediate positive response to our initial enquiry about roof lights was a refreshing change from the apathy and off-putting attitudes so commonly encountered from “builders?” on what they disparagingly consider “small” jobs. Richard arrived on site, assessed the work, quoted promptly, advised on suitable materials, liaised with the Council Building Inspector and completed the installation –and additional work as we expanded the scope of the project. We cannot fault his experience and skills, his cheerfulness, reliability, punctuality, courtesy and tidiness. Definitely the right man for the job. We have already asked him to consider undertaking further work on our property.”

Says: Sally Henry BA (Hons) MA MCSD, Brighton Velux replacement, 2016

There was little mess or disruption…

“I was given Rich’s details via Velux and as he was local he popped in and gave us a quote. The windows were not cheap but the price for replacing 2 large and one small Velux seemed reasonable. Rich sourced the products and was very good at communicating any queries we had re the different types and options. Fitting took about 3 days, slightly longer because of the difficulty getting up the attic stairs with the sheer size and weight of the windows. There was little mess or disruption really and when fitted they looked really good and far superior to the very old ones we replaced. Rich had to call back to refit a bannister rail and finish some filling and he was absolutely fine with this. My only slight comment was we weren’t quite sure whether we needed to skim or plaster over some of the boarding around the windows but the decorator filled and sanded them so this wasn’t really an issue. A really good job and the windows look so much better!”

“Also very please with the work you did for us Richard.”

Says: Diane, Brighton, August 2018

Richard was very responsive in terms of communications, was very professional in his approach…

We would have no hesitation in recommending him!

“Richard worked with us over summer 2018 on our loft conversion, a complicated job which involved lowering our existing ceilings. His ideas and input at the start were invaluable in getting the project off the ground, when we were unsure as to whether or not it would be possible. Once work commenced, Richard was very responsive in terms of communications, was very professional in his approach, and the standard of his work was excellent throughout. We would have no hesitation in recommending him!”

Says: Peter Coyne, Brighton, 2018

We’re over the moon with the results…

“Only a small token of our appreciation! We’re over the moon with the results, and think you’ve done a smashing job. If you want a recommendation, please let us know.”

Says: Peter Coyne, Brighton, 2018

Refreshing to find a loft conversion specialist that listened to our requirements…

“Rich and his team were very punctual, very tidy and kept us up to speed at every stage of the loft conversion build. Our brief was slightly out of the norm so it was refreshing to find a loft conversion specialist that listened to our requirements, provided advice whilst also working within our financial budget to get the job done. I would have no hesitation using or recommending Richard Jackson or Jackson Lofts in the future, also a really nice guy.”

Says: Dan & Holly Edwards, Brighton, 2020

I couldn’t be happier, Richard is very professional, trustworthy, reliable…

“Richard installed a Velux window for me (November 2021), I couldn’t be happier, Richard is very professional, trustworthy, reliable, a pleasure to deal with, did an excellent job, he left the work area clean and tidy, very helpful regarding any questions I had, (generously passing on his knowledge), I would definitely recommend him.”

Says: Mark Rea, Brighton, 2021

He certainly knows his craft very well..

“Richard completed the job of installing two new Velux windows in my loft so efficiently and skilfully. He certainly knows his craft very well.. and though he had only come for the windows. I knew from talking to him that he had skill and knowledge way beyond into carpentry. I wish I had met him before I had started converting the loft. I would not hesitate to get him back for some other major jobs. As a serious DIYer I was considering installing the windows myself, but then I came across Richard. He was so knowledgeable, professional, straightforward and with a very fair price and had excellent suggestions of where I could source the windows from, I thought why mess about and I booked him. I am so glad I did.”

  1. When renovating our house, we called on Richard to install a loft ladder for us. He did a fantastic job and we went on to commission him to build some wardrobes for us and replace our skirting boards throughout the house. We were very pleased with Richard’s work and would highly recommend him for any job… big or small. Kay and Adrian, Hove

  4. Rich installed an Ikea kitchen for us including sheeting the upper surfaces in ply for a stone worktop to be installed later. All work was done with great attention to detail and accuracy especially fine fitting of the units to provide drawer clearance for a corner unit. On time, enthusiastic and no mess ( my carpenter friend is in love with that Festool saw). Great job.

  5. Richard converted our loft into an en-suite master bedroom, his price was competitive and he kept to the timelines and amount quoted. He is enthusiastic, personable and nothing was ever any trouble. He was very sympathetic to and open to our perhaps unconventional plans and had some great ideas of how to best make use of the space. I would highly recommend him.

  6. Dear Richard,

    Having seen your website, I was a bit diffident about getting in touch with you about something as minor as the replacement of a Velux window. I couldn’t have been more wrong. You were very happy to do the job. Communicating with you by email was easy. It was a pleasure to have you around. The job was first rate, and the cost reasonable.

    With best wishes

  7. I wanted a basic loft conversion for added storage: ladder, floor and light. Richard understood exactly what I wanted, quoted me a realistic price, turned up on time, finished on time, and left me with exactly the space I’d asked for. He’s also a pleasure to have around.

  12. Rich built a fabulous garden office for us. Despite the only access being through our flat into the garden and involving two sets of stairs, there was very little mess, no complaining and no hassle. Everything was completed on time and on budget and we’re delighted with the finished result. We’d totally recommend Richard for any project since he’s practical and easy to get on with as well as being a skilled craftsman.

  14. This is the second loft that Rich has converted for me, and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Rich should we move again and need a loft converting. He does a great job, managing all the sub contractors very well, but most importantly he is very professional and easy to work with. Discussing details, explaining what is being done and providing sound advice for the next phases brings far more to the job than a contractor just following the plan. Rich uses his experience to provide guidance on how to make the best out of the space you have to convert. We are extremely happy with the results, of what was a complex and challenging conversion of an entire loft space of a detached property, that also required structural support from the ground floor of the house.

  15. Richard is a trustworthy human being, he is professional and thorough in his work. He plans well, explains and offers good advise on what actually needs to be done, as well as keeping us informed throughout the stage’s of development. He kept everything tidy and cleared up which is also a really good quality in my book. He has great contractors who do their jobs well and efficiently. All in all I can’t fault Richard’s work and craftsmanship. It’s like a family business. Thank you for everything.. we love our new loft conversion.

  17. I wanted Richard to remove a couple of velux windows and install a Velux Cabrio window – the type that becomes a balcony once fully opened. He even included a little step up to the balcony area which made our viewing platform even better. Richard’s work was impeccable. And he left the site clean every day. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Richard again. ..and he’s a lovely bloke!
