There are several types of loft conversions, each suited to different property styles and budgets.

A rooflight conversion is the simplest option, adding windows to the existing roofline for light and ventilation with minimal structural changes.

A dormer conversion creates additional headroom and floor space by extending vertically from the roof slope, making it ideal for most home types.

Hip-to-gable conversions extend the side roof, replacing the sloping hip with a vertical gable wall, often combined with a rear dormer for even more space.

The mansard conversion, the most spacious of all, alters the roof’s structure to create steep, almost vertical walls, maximizing usable space—though it typically requires planning permission.

Homeowners choose loft conversions for many reasons, but the benefits are clear. They can add up to 20% to a property’s value, making them a smart investment. Beyond financial gain, a loft conversion helps maximize available space by utilizing the attic area without sacrificing garden or ground-floor space. Additionally, because much of the work occurs above the main living areas, the process is less disruptive than traditional extensions, offering a smoother and faster way to enhance your home’s functionality and comfort.
