The Benefits of a Loft Conversion in Godalming

A loft conversion is a great way to make more space in your home. If you are considering a loft conversion, read on to learn about the costs and space gained. You will also learn about energy saving tips.

Loft conversions in Godalming are a great way to add extra space to a home. They can increase the value of your home by up to 20 percent, and the extra space is useful for a number of reasons. The first benefit is increased square footage, which can be beneficial when trying to sell your home. Another advantage is saving time and money on the project.

Although a loft is generally limited in size, you can turn it into a wonderful space by applying some creativity. For example, if you have teenage children, you can add a separate entertainment room. You can also install a television point, which any electrician can do. .

Space gained by converting a loft into an extra bedroom

One of the biggest advantages of a loft conversion is the additional space it can provide. If you have a home with an attic, you can easily convert the space into a self-contained bedroom. Some loft conversions even have an ensuite for added convenience. This type of conversion is not possible in areas with a high number of multi-bedroom properties, however you may also choose to extend the roof of your property to make more headroom. However, be aware that if you do this, you will need planning permission. In addition, you can add bathrooms and home offices to your loft. This will increase the value of your home and also reduce utility costs.

Cost of a Loft Conversion

Many households consider a loft conversion to be a more efficient option to get extra space than to find a new, bigger house. However, the construction it requires will still cost you a lot. The total amount you will have to spend for this home upgrade will depend on you. The loft conversion cost usually starts at £25,000 and could go up to £95,000. This range is only a rough estimate and may go down or up depending on the loft conversion type you want, the materials that will be used in building the loft, and the labor costs of the builders you will hire. If you’ll choose to work with our team at Loft Conversion London, rest assured that no money will be put to waste and that you will get the loft that you want.

Average Timeline of Loft Conversion

There is no specific time that can be given with regard to the completion of a loft conversion. Typically, it will take 4 to 10 weeks. For a simple loft transformation, you can expect that the construction will take for 4 weeks or less. This is because the construction involved only includes the installation of dormer windows and insulators. With the types of loft conversion that require alterations on your house’s roof, the home improvement will be finished in 6 to 8 weeks. And for the type that completely rebuilds your loft into a new nook that’s closely similar to a storey, expect that the loft conversion will be completed in 10 weeks or more.

Moving Out During a Loft Conversion

You are not required to move out of your house in Godalming while the loft construction progresses. This is because the construction will mainly happen at the top of your property and our builders can create a convenient pathway that will not disrupt your household. You can also take this as beneficial on your part since you can closely monitor how we construct your loft. But if you still decide to leave for a while, you can freely do so and just come back once the loft is done.
