Loft Master Suite Renovation
Bedroom and ensuite reconfiguration, structural works and bespoke joinery | Guernsey
A loft bedroom and ensuite completely reconfigured
This project involved the complete refurbishment and reconfiguration of a loft master suite, including both the bedroom and ensuite bathroom.
Our team carried out extensive structural alterations, forming new partition walls, strengthening the floor structure, installing insulation, and completing all first and second fix plumbing and electrical works. A new ensuite layout was created with a walk-in shower, waterproof tanking system, recessed shower niche, bespoke tiling and contemporary sanitaryware.
The bedroom was fully renovated with new ceilings, plasterboarding, skimming, recessed LED lighting, luxury flooring, bespoke fitted furniture and custom joinery. Existing structural timber beams were carefully retained and incorporated as feature elements, preserving the character of the property while delivering a bright, modern finish.
What we delivered on this loft master suite
Working within an awkward loft structure
Loft spaces rarely give you square walls or spare height. Once the suite was stripped out, the floor structure needed strengthening, loads had to be supported with steels, and every millimetre of the new ensuite layout had to be planned around existing timber beams and sloping ceilings.
Rather than hide the original beams, we retained and boxed them as feature elements — keeping the character of the property while delivering a bright, contemporary suite.
