  • REAR DORMER LOFT CONVERSIONS

    A dormer loft conversion is built out of the existing roof slope and provides the most economical way to add extra space to your property. Some types of dormer loft conversions can increase up to 50 cubic meters of additional space, depending on the type of property and the size of the extension.

    A dormer loft conversion is a form of conversion that involves an extension to the loft’s structure. The dormer as the added element called is a vertical space that overhangs vertically from the sloping roof. The direct result of this is a substantial increase in the loft’s usable space, both vertically and horizontally. The headroom is greatly increased, and the loft’s entire floor space is allowing more access to natural daylight.

    There are several types of dormer loft conversion, but the most commonly utilized in the UK is a simple flat roof dormer. We offer a reliable rear dormer loft conversion for your home. That way you can add much more space to your home while expanding it to the back so that the looks of your home don’t change when facing the front.

  • MANSARD LOFT CONVERSIONS

    A mansard loft conversion is a type of loft conversion that involves extending the entire plane of your property’s roof, effectively adding a full additional floor to your home. This works by lifting the sloping side of the roof to a pitch that’s almost vertical – not lower than 72 degrees. As a result of this type of conversion, the roof is flat and windows are located within dormers.

    As this type of house extension is quite a significant change to the home structure, planning permission is always required for this type of loft design, and it is often more extensive than other types of loft conversions. This type of conversion is most commonly build in London and other urban areas, where street lines of period terraced properties are built.

  • HIP-TO-GABLE LOFT CONVERSIONS

    An increasingly popular form of creating extra room at larger properties, hip-to-gable loft conversions are a great choice when looking for a solid way of increasing your loft space. If you live in a detached or semi-detached house with a hipped roof, a hip-to-gable loft conversion is what you need.

    A hip-to-gable loft conversion involves extending the side roof area, resulting in the hipped roof, which formerly sloped inwards, being transformed into a vertical wall, changing your hip roof to a gable roof. This provides the benefits of increased space and headroom in your loft space. This can also be combined with rear dormer loft conversions, which results in an even greater increase in space all around. Planning permission isn’t usually necessary in order to design this type of loft conversion. Most hip-to-gable loft conversions are within permitted development conditions and do not require full planning permission.
