A Smart Investment for Your Home

Loft conversions are not just about adding space; they’re a wise investment that enhances the value of your property. Our experienced architects and designers collaborate with you to develop a customised loft conversion plan that aligns with your lifestyle and personal preferences, making every inch count.

Dormer Loft Conversions

One of the most popular types, dormer conversions involve extending the existing roof to create additional floor space and headroom within the loft. This type often includes the addition of dormer windows, providing natural light and ventilation.

Hip-to-Gable Loft Conversions

Ideal for semi-detached or detached homes with hipped roofs, this conversion extends the sloping ‘hip’ roof at the side of your property out to create a vertical ‘gable’ wall. This significantly increases the internal loft space.

Mansard Loft Conversions

Named after the 17th-century French architect Francois Mansart, mansard conversions involve altering the roof structure to create an almost vertical slope at an angle of 72 degrees. Mansards are often constructed at the rear of the house and are known for maximizing space.

Velux Loft Conversions

Named after the popular brand of roof windows, Velux conversions are the simplest and least disruptive to install. They don’t typically require major alterations to the roofline, as Velux windows are installed within the existing roof structure.

Roof Lift Conversions

In properties where the existing loft space is insufficient for conversion, a roof lift involves raising the height of the roof to create adequate space. This is a more complex and costly option but can make a loft conversion possible in homes where it otherwise wouldn’t be.
