Dormer Loft Conversion
A dormer loft conversion involves adding a box-shaped structure over a pitched roof, which creates a wall sitting at a 90-degree angle to the floor. These conversions are an amazing method to add more head space and floor area, but they are slightly more pricey than roof light conversions.
- Generally, planning permission is not needed.
- It gives maximum headroom, assisting in the creation of a multipurpose space.
- Dormer windows combined with a glass balcony permit natural light to enter the room.
- It is a great investment that will increase the value of your property while improving your lifestyle.
Hip to Gable Loft Conversion
These types of loft conversions are only suitable for buildings having sloping side roofs. By extending the diagonal hip at the side of a home upwards and outwards to create a gable, this conversion creates a lot of space. To maximise available space, these conversions are generally designed with a back dormer.
- Perfect for bungalows, detached, or semi-detached homes.
- Greater value than an external extension.
- Less expensive than moving homes.
- Increase the value of your home.
L-Shaped Loft Conversion
L-shaped loft conversion is an excellent way to add a lot of headroom and also provide a large amount of extra space. Furthermore, it provides numerous arrangement options, like multiple rooms. This conversion type involves building two dormers that connect to form an L-shaped structure.
- Suitable for creating space for multiple rooms.
- Can be used to create more headroom.
Mansard Loft Conversion
Mansard loft conversions are built to the rear of your building and have a vertical (72-degree) back wall, which changes the entire roof contour, making it practically vertical. This is the most expensive conversion because of the amount of work involved, but it is an excellent method to add more room. This conversion type is commonly found on terraced homes and is suitable for most property types.
- Creates a large, multipurpose space that is saturated with natural light.
- Increases the value of your home.
