Loft Conversion Types

Dormer Loft Conversion

Transform your home with a dormer loft conversion, a popular choice for expanding living space. Positioned typically at the rear of the property, this extension seamlessly integrates with the existing roofline. By projecting vertically from the sloping roof, it offers valuable additional floor space and headroom within the loft area. Inside, dormers typically feature a flat, horizontal ceiling, maximising usable space. With its versatility, a dormer loft conversion can typically accommodate one generously sized double bedroom or two smaller single bedrooms, along with a bathroom, adding both comfort and functionality to your home.

Hip to Gable Loft Conversion

The hip to gable loft conversion is a transformative addition to your home’s roofline. In this conversion, the side of your roof area is extended, with both the front and rear elevations stretched out. The defining feature is the removal of the side roof elevation which is replaced by a vertical gable end. This type of conversion is commonly paired with a traditional dormer, offering a seamless blend of classic and contemporary design elements. With the hip to gable conversion, you not only expand your living space but also elevate the architectural appeal of your home, creating a striking visual statement from every angle.

Velux Loft Conversion

The ease and efficiency of a Velux loft conversion is the perfect solution for a swift transformation. With this conversion the external structure of your roof remains untouched, resulting in significantly lower construction costs. While this type of conversion legally converts your loft space into a room, it’s important to note that the room is typically limited to one bedroom. Additionally, the headspace may be affected by the shape of existing sloping walls. Despite these limitations of a Velux conversion it could be your best option if planning regulations restrict other types of conversions. Embrace simplicity without sacrificing functionality, and unlock the potential of your loft space with a Velux conversion.

L Shaped Dormer Loft Conversion

The L-shaped dormer loft conversion is a clever twist on the traditional dormer style. Like its counterpart, the L-shaped dormer extends from the rear of the property. They increase the floor space and headroom within the loft area. And what sets this conversion apart is its dual dormer extensions, seamlessly connected to provide an unparalleled amount of space.

This design maximises both functionality and aesthetics, offering a bespoke solution for homeowners seeking ample room to expand their living quarters.

Mansard Loft Conversion

Mansard conversions completely transform the shape of the roof, creating an almost vertical structure. With this conversion, the sloping side of your roof is transformed into an almost vertical side. This subtle incline not only helps with water drainage but also maximises your loft space to its fullest potential.

Typically adorned with smaller dormer windows and featuring a flat roof, the Mansard loft conversion embodies a perfect blend of functionality and style.
