Converting Lofts and Attics Thornton Le Moors
Loft conversions transform neglected roof space into fully functional living areas, whether that be a bedroom, home office or bathroom suite. The approach and complexity of the work depends entirely on your existing roof structure and the type of conversion you choose.
This ranks among the most frequently requested services we undertake, and we would love to assist you with your project. We manage every aspect of the conversion, from preparatory groundwork through to scaffolding installation, timber carpentry, roof modifications where necessary, and complete interior finishing including floor installation, plasterboard work, plumbing systems and electrical installations.
The main types of conversions are:
- Dormer – a boxed extension built outward from the roof slope, creating full height ceiling space and accommodating vertical windows
- Hip-to-Gable – converting a sloped hip end into a vertical gable wall, maximising internal volume particularly suited to semi-detached properties and end terrace houses
- Mansard – reconstructing one or both roof planes to an almost vertical angle with a flat section at the top, delivering maximum usable space though typically requiring planning consent
- Velux / rooflight – retaining your current roofline whilst installing windows directly into the slope where adequate headroom exists
- L-shaped – pairing a principal rear dormer with an additional dormer above the rear extension commonly found on Victorian and Edwardian terraced properties
Regardless of which type you select, the work encompasses structural modifications to your roof framework, installation of new floor joists, staircase construction, insulation upgrades meeting current building regulations, and comprehensive internal finishing.
