What is a Loft Conversion

People are looking to get a loft conversion for their house because of the unparalleled advantages it has over other traditional methods. A loft conversion is one of the most popular subjects right now, and people are looking to get one for their house. A loft conversion is a process of transforming an attic or a roof into a fully functional area. Having this extra room comes with a lot of benefits, and you can use it for anything you want.

What are the different types of Loft conversion?

  • Mansard Loft Conversion -

A mansard loft conversion allows various additions to the room and one of the best advantages of this type of loft conversion is that it offers a significant increase in space, and it has a pleasant design which gives a lot of scope for proper interior designing. Getting a proper mansard loft conversion can be tricky because this type of loft conversion demands various complicated dimensions of the house. A mansard loft is built with a flat roof and the back sloping inwards at an angle of 72 degrees, this is often categorized as a roof instead of a wall by local authorities. These mansard lofts can be seen in huge houses that haven't been built in modern times.

  • Hip-to-gable Loft Conversion -

The Hip-to-gable loft conversion style of one of the easiest and the architectural design of the style is also very basic. If you want a good loft conversion within a limited period, we can convert your loft by following this style. These designs are mostly seen in detached and semi-detached properties. This style is suggested to semi-detached properties because they have to extend sloping sides of the roof towards the outside, and the vertical gable can act as a replacement for the existing sloping roof that reaches the same height. Sometimes a double Hip-to-Gable loft conversion can be built in houses that have two sloping sides, rather than one.

  • Dormer Loft Conversion -

There are certain types of loft conversions that can make use of only a limited amount of space but when you choose a dormer loft conversion, all the free space is used efficiently and a dorm like structure is created inside the roof, and provisions are made to allow natural sunlight and air to enter the room. These dorms with windows look extremely pretty and surprisingly they are affordable as well. The cost for these dormer loft conversions can go up if you have a spacious house.

There are also ready-made dorms available in the market and if you purchase this, we can help you in dismantling them and arranging them on your roof directly. This takes a lot less time but this process is expensive.

  • Velux Loft Conversion -

People generally choose the Velux type of loft conversion when the space of the room and the exterior doesn't matter to them, some people look for creating the extra space fast and they focus on the interior. This style of loft conversion takes the least amount of time and the whole process of converting the roof is finished within 4 weeks. The normal process of a loft conversion for any style takes more than 6-8 weeks. These Velux types of loft conversions are a little expensive but they are the easiest to build. We at loft conversion London have some of the best interiors and they can help you to turn your dreams into reality.

Steps Involved in a Loft Conversion -

  • Planning  -

The planning phase is the most important phase because it lays down the groundwork for the whole activity. We at loft conversion London have more than the required experience and we can help you with making proper estimations, design selections, uncertainties. We work closely with our clients to know their expectations from the project and we develop a plan of action and make sure that we are on track right from the beginning.

  • Acquiring Planning Permissions -

Once you've decided on a loft conversion style and finalized all of the project's specifics, you'll need to obtain the necessary planning permits. This is a required procedure in any country, and it would usually take months to put the conversion on hold. We have the best architects and professional builders working on projects at loft conversion London, and they assist you by making crystal clear designs and providing all the insights and information so that the conversion can be approved as soon as possible.

  • Procuring necessary resources -

Once you get the required planning permissions, you should purchase the required raw materials to get the work started. These raw materials are sometimes very expensive and there are different varieties and differences in each option. We have been working in this industry for a long time and we have a trusted source of supplies who supply only the best and the most reliable raw materials. We can even help you in reducing the cost of the resources because we get special discounts for working with them for such a long time.

  • Construction  -

Because of the noise and the materials being pushed about, the building phase can be the most upsetting. Our contractors have a lot of experience and ensure that all is done correctly. We ensure that we do not damage the property and that all of the belongings are treated with extreme caution. We are very flexible with our schedules, and if you need some uninterrupted time, we will work with you to build a perfect schedule in which we will work to achieve the goals while you enjoy some uninterrupted time.


  • Finishing Up -

After the conversion is complete, our experts double-check it to make sure there are no problems. Our team of interior and exterior designers won't just finish the job and leave. Instead, they'll help you choose the best colors, accessories, and overall experience. You'd have to hire separate designers and interior architects, and even a single piece of advice would be prohibitively expensive. Our professional services are much less expensive, and because our designers collaborate closely with the builders, they will suggest the best designs.


Why choose only the best Loft Conversion Agency

  • Exceptional Workforce -

We have a strong reputation in the industry, and all of our clients are pleased with our work, with the majority recommending our company to their friends and family. We are committed to delivering high-quality programming, which is made possible by our dedicated employees.

A true artist knows his worth and similarly, we as a company offer the best packages and everything that we charge is worth every penny that you would be spending. We don't believe in overcharging our customers or making profits by delivering a low-quality service. We charge the right amount of money and do justice to the activity we take up. Our workforce enjoys offering the services they are good at and this pushed them to do even better.

If you want to work with other companies, bear in mind that some offer services that are too good to be true. For example, some companies offer low-cost services but then add hidden costs and increase their quote with each move. As a result, you'll end up spending even more money than you should, and the service you get will leave you unhappy and unsatisfied.

We believe in partnering with our customers rather than working for them. At Loft Conversion London, we are completely transparent, and we follow the clients' ideas and plans. If nothing else works, we search for the next best solution and implement it on the project.
