LOFT CONVERSIONS
We offer a variety of types of loft conversion
including:
Dormer
Please contact us by phone, text or email for more information or for a free and no obligation
quotation.
The best style of loft conversion for properties
with limited headroom in the existing roof
space. Additional space is created by extending
the walls a short way up through the roof
(usually only on one side) which allows the
creation of a flat ceiling inside. A construction of this type can be
very versatile and allows for options such as, say, the creation of an
en-suite bathroom.
Velux
It does not require extensive alterations to the roof because the installed Velux
windows fit flush with the line of the roof, leaving the structure of the existing roof
untouched. Advantages of this option are that the roof does not need major work
which keeps the cost of the conversion down and planning permission is not usually required.
You may need to check with your local planning authority to get the rules about installing dormer
windows for your area.
Where there is a good amount of headroom, a Velux type loft conversion is a good
option.
Mansard
The new roof is usually created by building up the party or gable walls on either
side of your house to form the profile for the mansard followed by the building of
a timber frame. Mansard loft conversions are very likely to require planning permission.
Mansard roofs have two slopes, one close to vertical (72 degrees) and the top one
almost horizontal. A mansard roof conversion takes maximum advantage of the
available space in your loft.
Hip to Gable
The new gable wall can be built either in masonry or studwork and finished with
options such as matching brickwork, blockwork, rendering or tiling. Hip to gable
conversions change the outline of the roof and so planning permission may be
required. After the roof has been extended, a Velux rooflight or dormer can be installed to complete
the conversion.
A hip to gable loft conversion requires the building up of the gable wall and
building a new section of roof to fill the gap.
