Dormer Loft Conversions

A Dormer loft conversion is one of the most popular and practical ways to create more usable space in your loft. It involves extending a section of the roof vertically, usually to the rear, to form a box-shaped structure with full head height. This instantly opens up the loft and makes it feel like a natural part of your home.

  • A typical Dormer conversion takes between 5 and 8 weeks.

  • Starting from £40,000.

Velux Loft Conversions

Also known as a Velux loft conversion, this is the simplest and most cost-effective way to transform your loft. There’s no structural change to the roof shape, instead, rooflight windows are fitted between the existing rafters to let in natural light and create a bright, open space.

  • A typical Velux conversion takes between 3 and 5 weeks.

  • Starting from £24,000.

Hip to Gable Loft Conversions

A Hip to Gable conversion changes the sloping ‘hip’ end of a roof into a vertical gable wall, increasing loft volume dramatically. This is ideal for semi-detached or end-of-terrace homes where the existing sloped roof restricts internal space.

  • A typical Hip to Gable conversion takes between 6 and 8 weeks.

  • Starting from £55,000.

Roof Lift Loft Conversions

A roof lift conversion is exactly what it sounds like; lifting the entire roof structure to create a taller, fully usable loft space. It’s the most extensive type of conversion and is used when your current loft space is too shallow to convert effectively.

  • A typical Roof Lift conversion takes between 7 and 10 weeks.

  • Starting from £55,000.
