What to Expect: Your Step-by-Step Guide to an Irish Attic Company Renovation

You’ve been thinking about it for a while…
You’re ready to transform your attic into something extraordinary.
But naturally, a big project raises a big question: “What will the process be like?”

At The Irish Attic Company, we believe that the renovation journey should be just as enjoyable as the finished result.
That’s why we’ve built a step-by-step process designed to keep you informed, comfortable, and excited every step of the way.

Here’s your complete guide to what to expect when working with us—so you can plan your project with total confidence.


Step 1: The Free Quote Visit—We Listen First

Every project begins with a conversation—not a sales pitch.
We start by visiting your home for a free, no-obligation quote visit.

During this session, we will:

  • Assess your attic’s suitability for conversion
  • Listen carefully to your ideas, goals, and style preferences
  • Share inspiration from past projects
  • Offer expert advice on layouts, lighting, insulation, and bespoke options
  • Provide a clear, transparent quote with no hidden costs

Our goal? To give you all the information you need to make a confident decision—without pressure.

Step 2: Expert Design Consultation—Your Vision, Our Expertise

Once you’re ready to proceed, we’ll dive into the design phase.
Here’s where the fun begins.

You’ll meet with our:

  • Architects—to plan a space that feels bright, spacious, and beautifully functional
  • Interior designers—to select finishes, materials, and personal touches that reflect your style
  • Engineers—to ensure structural integrity and compliance

We’ll also provide:

  • 3D renderings—so you can see exactly how your new space will look
  • A detailed project timeline
  • A breakdown of materials, features, and pricing

This collaborative process ensures your attic is designed around your life—not just built to generic specs.
