Types of loft conversion
Dormer conversions
A dormer builds out from the roof slope to add head height and floor space. It suits bedrooms and en suites.
Roof light conversions
Roof windows fitted into the existing slope, keeping the roof shape. Best where there is good head height.
Loft bedrooms with en suites
An extra bedroom with a shower room or bathroom built in, planned around the drainage and the roof shape.
Loft offices and studies
A quiet room away from the rest of the house, with proper insulation, heating, power and good lighting.
Loft playrooms
A bright, safe and warm space for children, kept separate from the main living areas of the house.
Lofts with a new staircase
A proper staircase planned into the floor below, so the loft works as a real room every single day.
