Loft Conversions

Are you thinking about a loft conversion for your home?

Loft conversions have become one of the most popular home renovation projects in recent years and its easy to see why.

Many lofts, when converted, can actually produce additional space equivalent to the size of a small apartment. It’s often the case that at least two rooms and a bathroom can be built which is why loft renovations are so alluring to the modern homeowner. Just think of that amount of extra living space in your home!

Loft conversions are also a lot easier to accomplish than you may think. First of all, they rarely require planning permission as they are already classed as permitted developments. The only instance where you would require permission is if you planned on a drastic change in the aesthetic appearance of your home.

Additionally, although converting your loft may seem like a grand task, they are actually one of the quickest home improvement projects to undertake. On average, a loft conversion can be completed in just 6 weeks. Imagine, you could completely transform your home in a month & a half and start utilising that additional space.

Loft conversions also come in a variety of shapes and styles so no matter what aesthetic you’re looking for, we guarantee that there’s one to match your vision. Every conversion we undertake can tailored to your specific requirements and we can advise on the best style to achieve your design and practicality needs.

Dormer loft conversions convert a sloped roof into a vertical structure, effectively creating a new box-like room in your home. They provide extra space, new headroom and natural light. If you’re looking to avoid sloped walls in the new room, a dormer could be the right option for you!

Velux loft conversions are very easy on the eye. The original layout and shape of the loft is maintained but windows are added to the roof walls to give the appearance of larger space.

Natural light floods the room and can lead to a very aesthetically pleasing final result. These are more suited to homes with larger, taller loft spaces.

Hip-To-Gable loft conversions are for properties who have a sloped roof on one side which can make things a little bit tricky. In these types of conversions, the sloped side of the existing roof (hip) is replaced with a vertical wall (gable) creating new space and effectively straightening up the structure of the house. New space and headroom is created as a result.

Those are just a few of the loft conversions options available. We also offer more customisable solutions if you have something else in mind. For many homeowners who require a lot of new space, loft conversions are an attractive and cost-effective alternative to moving house. Get in touch with the SPL team today for a FREE consultation and we can start finding the optimal loft conversion solutions for you!
