It is uncertain to tell how much time will your loft space need to do the whole process. How long the completion of loft conversion will take depends on what kind of loft you have, the material used in the loft, type of staircase and plumbing, the number of rooms needed, windows that need to be added, and a group of other factors. Since there are so many options available for converting a loft, we can only make some assumptions on how much will take in its completion. Mostly loft conversions take around 8-10 weeks to complete.
Loft Conversion is done to convert an unused space into a useful place. So, it is important to check whether your house has any scope of conversion or not. If you don't have enough free space and if the rooms are already too small, then converting the loft is a complete waste. We at Loft conversion London make sure that all the measurements are right and give proper plans to make sure you have enough headspace and room once the conversion is done.
Most people neglect the fact that the walls on the roof are thin and this causes heat or cold air to easily invade the room. It is important to insulate the room properly and if not the room becomes inhabitable because of the too hot or too cold temperatures. At Loft Conversion London we make sure that the lofted rooms are insulated properly.
We at loft conversion London add a layer of safety by reinforcing the room and the flooring and follow procedures that exceed the basic safety norms. We make sure that the roof stays intact and the ceiling doesn't fall off even though there is a natural calamity.
If you have a bathroom or a washbasin in your lofted room, it is important to connect these drainage pipes to the main drainage outlet. Connecting these outlets improperly can cause clogging of the outlets and sometimes these pipes can get blocked and can even burst out. We at Loft conversion London take care of all the factors including drainage.

This style of loft conversions requires a dorm existing vertically from the plane of an existing sloping roof, typically at the rear of the property. There is a dorm-like space created inside the roof so they are called dormer loft conversion and these are very commonly seen because they offer a lot of space and headroom.

Cons:
Hip To Gable loft conversions add a considerable amount of headroom to a loft, as well as functional floor space. This type of conversion requires the roof to be stripped back to the top of the hip ends, the flank wall built into a gable, and extending the ridge to meet the gable. This type of conversion requires the reconstruction of some of the front roofs.
Pros:
Cons:
The L-shaped dormer loft conversion is also very popular and is often considered the best way to extend a mid-terrace period property to maximize space. By opting for an L-shaped conversion you can normally comfortably add 2 bedrooms and a Bathroom / En-Suite.
This type of loft conversion involves one or both slopes of the roof being replaced with a new structure with very steep sloping sides (almost as steep as the walls). An almost flat roof is placed over the top. This design is used where the original roof had little or no headroom and creates sufficient volume for an additional floor. Mansard conversions normally require planning permission. A mansard loft is built with a flat roof and the back sloping inwards at an angle of 72 degrees. These conversions are very common in London and can be seen mainly in more traditional houses.
Pros:
Cons:
A Velux (Roof Light) Conversion is converting your loft without changing any of its original shapes. Good for higher roofs where head height isn’t a problem. Only a small amount of alterations are required to the roof for fitting, this option helps keep the cost of a Loft Conversion down.

A successful loft conversion is more than an expense. It is more of a secured investment. Planning is the primary stage of the process and should be undertaken only by a specialist team.
