Why Choose a Loft Conversion? 

As families grow and lifestyles change, what you need from your home can change too. Instead of moving, a loft conversion allows you to:

• ✅ Create an additional bedroom with en-suite bathroom

• ✅ Design a modern home office or study space

• ✅ Add a stylish living room or playroom

• ✅ Boost your home’s market value by up to 20%

Loft conversions are also quicker and more affordable than major extensions — with average build times of 6–8 weeks.

Types of Loft Conversions We Offer 

Not every home is the same, which is why we offer a full range of loft conversion options:

​

• Dormer Loft Conversion (from £25K–£30K): The most popular choice, adding headroom and usable space with a box-shaped structure. Perfect for bedrooms and bathrooms.

• Hip-to-Gable Conversion: Extends the sloping roof into a vertical gable wall, ideal for semi-detached and detached houses.

• Mansard Conversion: Maximises space with a flat roof and steeply sloping rear wall. Suited for terraced homes in urban areas.

• Velux / Skylight Conversion: The simplest and most affordable option — no major structural changes, just added light and ventilation.

• L-Shaped Dormer: Great for period or Victorian properties, creating two dormer sections at right angles for maximum floor space.

• Loft Pods: Adds extra living space by building onto an existing L-shaped loft.
