Loft Conversion Services
One of the most economical methods to increase your home's living space without having to move to a larger property or build an addition is to convert your loft. Making the most of every square metre in your house, you may turn unwanted attic space into an extra bedroom, office or even a playground. Loft conversions usually increase natural light, especially when skylights or dormer windows are added, making the space feel lighter and more spacious. Additionally, by adding insulation, they increase your home's thermal efficiency, which eventually results in cheaper energy bills.
In addition to improving your quality of life, investing in a loft conversion can raise the value of your home by up to 20%. This makes it a wise financial choice, especially in competitive real estate markets where more living space is highly sought after. Loft conversions often have less of an impact on outdoor space than ground-floor expansions, which makes them perfect for homes with small garden spaces. They may also be tailored to your requirements, whether you need an additional storage space, a home office, or a guest suite. A loft conversion is a useful and fashionable way to update your house, provided it is planned and carried out correctly.
Choose Your Style
Types of Loft Conversions
Hip To Gable
Loft Conversion
A hip to gable loft conversion is a type of loft conversion that straightens an inwardly slanted end roof to create a vertical wall - thereby changing the hip roof into a gable one.
L-Shaped Dormer
Loft Conversion
An L-shaped dormer loft conversion creates extra living space by building two connecting dormer extensions, ideal for maximising space in homes with existing rear additions.
Mansard
Loft Conversion
A Mansard loft conversion maximises space by raising the roof with a nearly vertical back wall and gently sloping top, creating a full extra floor. This style often provides ample room.
Piggyback
Loft Conversion
A piggyback loft conversion maximises headroom by raising the existing roof's pitch. This involves building up the walls and constructing a new roof.
Pitched Dormer
Loft Conversion
A pitched dormer loft conversion extends the usable space in your loft by adding a box-like structure with a sloping roof, similar to a small house extension.
Rear Dormer
Loft Conversion
A rear dormer loft conversion extends the existing roof at the rear of the property, creating additional headroom and floor space within the loft.
Side Dormer
Loft Conversion
A side dormer loft conversion extends the usable space in a sloped roof by building a dormer window on the side of the house. This creates additional headroom and floor area.
Velux
Loft Conversion
A Velux loft conversion uses specially designed Velux windows fitted within the existing roof slope, without significantly altering the roof's structure.

Loft Conversions FAQs
The process of turning an unutilised loft or attic into a useful living space, such a bedroom, office, or playground, is known as a loft conversion.
The majority of loft conversions are exempt from planning approval requirements and are covered under authorised development rights. However, you might need to apply for planning approval if your plans go above permissible development boundaries, you reside in a conservation area, or your property is listed.
The nature and complexity of the project determine how long a loft conversion takes. A simple loft conversion typically takes six to twelve weeks to finish.
The size, design, and structural work needed for a loft conversion all affect the price. While more intricate designs, such dormer or mansard conversions, might cost up to £50,000, a simple conversion can start at about £20,000.
Not every loft is a good candidate for conversion. Important things to think about include:
Hight: The ideal head height is 2.2 meters from floor to ceiling.
Roof Structure: Modern trussed roofs are more difficult to modify than traditional cut roof constructions.
Access: You should think about making room for a staircase.
Building Regulations: Adherence to insulation, fire safety, and structural integrity is crucial.
Indeed, a well-done loft conversion may add up to 20% to the value of your home, making it a wise investment.
