Types of Loft Conversions

It is not unusual to combine the below types of loft conversion when converting attic space. A common approach is to build dormers to the rear of the property, install velux windows on the front of the property and increase the lofts width by converting hip ends of the roof to gable ends.

Dormer Loft Conversion

Dormer Loft Conversion

Dormer loft conversions create extra space in your loft. Rear dormers can run the width of the roof and create the most space.

Roof Light / Velux Loft Conversion

Roof Light / Velux Loft Conversion

Roof light / Velux conversions work within the current roofline of your loft. It is unusual for these conversions to require planning permission. These are usually the cheapest option due to the fact no work to the roofline has to be done.

Hip To Gable Loft Conversion

Hip To Gable Loft Conversion

Hip to gable conversions replace the hip of the roof (the sloped edge) with a gable end and can create a lot more space.

Roof Trusses and Loft Conversions

Some houses have a ‘truss’ frame to support the roof. The roof trusses often take up a lot of space in the loft and may lead you to think that you cannot use the space. However, it is possible to convert a trussed roof. We offer free, no-obligation site surveys, so get in touch with us today on 01273 870510.
