Depending on what you decide, we could opt for any of these loft conversion types:

Rooflight conversion; our team will have roof lights added to the front and back to create your new space using the existing capacity you have and no more. You also have the option of having windows added to the gable walls. More than any other type of loft conversion, rooflight conversion is cost-effective since you won’t be making too many alterations. Dormer conversion; this type of conversion gives you more volume in the back, sides or front since we’ll be adding dormer windows into the pitched roof plane.

That’s not the end of it as we’ll extend the roof over the gables to create the needed space. Gable-to-gable conversions; after building the gable wall, the roof will be rebuilt at the back such that we have a raised, near vertical pitch that’s about the ceiling’s height. A wall with windows will be formed in the end. Terrace houses are well-suited to this kind of loft conversion The resulting space can be a large one with full headroom. Mansard conversion; if you opt for this kind of loft conversion, we’ll have to do major work by taking down your roof and putting an entirely new structure in place. This is like adding another storey with near vertical tile-hung walls. We’ll then place an almost flat roof on top. Is it possible to do a loft conversion for every kind of building? Loft conversions can be done on most kinds of houses.

But, in other cases, a loft conversion may not be possible due to the shape and pitch of the existing roof. We can schedule an appointment to come see your house in order to determine whether we can carry out a loft conversion. We’ll need to establish that the usable load bearing walls available are sufficient to provide solid support for the new structure. Having a loft conversion done won’t be a problem if you have a roof with a gable end wall. On the other hand, if your roof is an intersecting pitched one, a hipped one or a trussed rafter one, we may face challenges when converting the loft. Having worked on different kinds of rooves across Coldean, we can guarantee that we’ll be able to handle your loft conversion even if you have a complicated roof to work with.
