As @SCS says, that seems spendy. We had ours done 3.5 years ago and paid around £35k for it. That included removing the previous conversation which was a total bodge job that didn't meet building regulations.
Which companies have quoted for you?

One was a recommendation from the architect (70k), the other was a fella that my brother contracts to occasionally (110k).
I've another builder meeting this week - let's see what they come back with, otherwise I'm going to start calling on random internet loft builders.
I'm going to be really disappointed if the actual price is that high, as it would make the whole conversion uneconomical and we might need to move.
Or we could double down and knock down the rear kitchen / bathroom ground floor extension, and build a double / triple height extension out the back, and add another 60 m^2 to the house.
There are some advantages to living at the north end of a terrace up against a rail track.
Loft extensions. 17 m^2 dormer extensions shouldn't be that spenny, right?
The quotes that we have received are nuts, and one is in 6 figures.
