The work in detail

Every job is different. These are the kinds of work we take on under loft conversions.

  • Dormer conversions

    Extending the roof to create extra headroom and floor space, a popular choice on terraced and semi-detached homes.

  • Hip-to-gable conversions

    Replacing a sloping side of the roof with a vertical gable wall to open up more usable space.

  • Mansard conversions

    A near-vertical roof structure that gives the most space, often used on terraces in conservation areas.

  • Rooflight conversions

    Where there is enough headroom already, fitting rooflights and finishing the space with little structural change.

  • Structural work

    The steelwork, floor strengthening and support that turn a roof space into a safe room.

  • Stairs and access

    Planning where the new staircase goes and building it so it feels part of the house.

  • Insulation and finishing

    Insulating the roof space and finishing the walls, ceilings and floors so the room is comfortable all year.

  • Windows and rooflights

    Fitting dormer windows and rooflights to bring natural light into the new room.

From your first message to the finished job, so you always know what happens next.

  1. Roof and space assessment

    We look at your loft, the roof structure and the headroom to talk through what is possible.

  2. Choosing the right conversion

    We explain the difference between dormer, hip-to-gable, mansard and rooflight options for your property.

  3. Planning and permissions

    We talk you through whether planning permission or building regulations are likely to apply.

Loft conversions: common questions

Can't see your question? Send us a message and we'll answer it.

How do I know if my loft can be converted?

It depends on the height, the roof structure and the type of house. We will look at it with you and talk through what is possible.

What is the difference between a dormer and a hip-to-gable?

A dormer adds a box to the roof slope. A hip-to-gable replaces a sloping side with a vertical wall. Which suits you depends on your roof.

Do I need planning permission for a loft conversion?

It depends on the property and the kind of conversion. Some fall under permitted development while others need planning permission.

Where does the staircase go?

This is planned at the start, because it affects the rooms below. We talk through the options for your layout.

How long does a loft conversion take?

It depends on the type and size of the conversion. We can give you a realistic idea once we have seen the loft.
