London Carpentry Specialists was founded by Brian Bolger, an Indentured Master Carpenter and Joiner who completed his Indentured Apprenticeship alongside John over 35 years ago. Brian’s reputation for excellence has seen him complete bespoke work on both residential and commercial properties, bringing lost or rare skills to homes and projects where true craftsmanship is needed. His portfolio includes work for high-profile clients, such as the home of David and Victoria Beckham, as well as the fabrication and installation of a staircase in a £70 million residence in Holland Park, London.
Alongside his long-time friend and colleague—who apprenticed with Brian and remains a key partner—London Carpentry Specialists has tackled intricate projects demanding not only technical expertise but also innovation and inventive problem-solving. Together, Brian and his colleague have continued to elevate industry standards, always striving for superior results.
A defining moment came during a visit to a homeowner in Wandsworth, where the duo envisioned a new approach to loft conversions that would empower the community while nurturing the next generation of tradespeople. This vision led to the creation of the New Loft Version (NLV), officially registered in May 2025.
Though a recent addition, NLV has already secured confirmed contracts and piqued the interest of over 50 homeowners, all without the need for advertising.
At the heart of London Carpentry Specialists is a commitment to community support, philanthropy, and a spirit of fun—embodied in their Free Loft Conversion Initiative, which offers exciting prizes for participating homeowners.

Our newly Registered: Design No. 6446746—Vertical Elevation Loft Conversion (“Design”)—marks a significant step forward in innovative solutions for homeowners with pitched roofs. Traditional loft conversions often present limitations in terms of usable space, headroom, and structural challenges, particularly in houses where the pitch angle is steep or where existing roof structures do not lend themselves to conventional dormer solutions.
Key Advantages of the Vertical Elevation Loft Conversion:
Architects are always seeking new and creative ways to maximise the potential of interior spaces while respecting external aesthetics and planning regulations. The Vertical Elevation Loft Conversion offers architects a unique selling point: a versatile design that can be incorporated into a broad spectrum of property types. By collaborating with LCS, architects can access technical support, early-stage design input, and joint marketing opportunities.
For contractors, the efficiency and modularity of our design translates to smoother project timelines and reduced risk of delays due to unforeseen structural complications. As a preferred installation partner, contractors benefit from comprehensive training, priority allocation of projects, and the ability to offer homeowners the assurance of a patented, proven system.
Legal professionals play a vital role in the property transaction process. By being familiar with and recommending LCS’s loft conversion system, conveyancing solicitors can expedite due diligence, ensure compliance with building regulations, and provide their clients with reliable solutions that add long-term value to the property.
Estate agents are always on the lookout for ways to boost property appeal and value. Properties enhanced by LCS’s Vertical Elevation Loft Conversion become more desirable, often attracting higher offers and faster sales.
