This is a serious question - How hard is it for a DIY loft conversion if you have friends who can help with some of the labouring work.
Is a single storey extension harder or easier then a loft conversion?
Am I right in thinking that the steps are
1) Structual Engineer
2) Install Steel Beams to SE spec
3) Install dormer from timber pieces
4) Strengthen floor joists
5) Plasterboard
6) Plumbing and electrics
If that was all that was required then I really do think it is possible for a competent DIY person to do
