Loft Conversions in Bevendean

Have your loft conversion done by experts in Bevendean

Anyone would like a bigger house to accommodate their ever-growing family. Rather than buy a new home, house extensions are quickly becoming the ideal route to take.

Reasons to get a loft conversion

Bevendean is filled with homeowners who converted their lofts for various reasons. Most commonly, homeowners want to have more space in their house for the comfort of everyone in the family. You can never have too much living space, so you could decide to convert the loft into a hobby or game room. A home office is a viable option if you work from home as many people now do.

In addition, a loft conversion can add value to your home, making it a good investment for the future. With loft conversion, you have more to gain than with other means of creating space.

Not requiring garden space and the short amount of time needed for the completion of a loft conversion make it more desirable than other home extension methods. It doesn’t cost that much compared to getting a new house. As a plus, you’ll get to keep your beautiful garden and you wouldn’t even have to worry about planning permission. From day one until the project is completed, we’ll do our best to ensure the finished product is precisely as you dreamed it to be.

Are loft conversions worth it?

Definitely. En suite bathroom, nursery, or anything else you have in mind, a loft conversion is a great way to achieve your dreams for a house that’ll keep you happy for a long time to come. You wouldn’t have to wait too long before the job is completed. There’ll most likely be a mess when work is in progress, but when we’re done building your dream loft conversion, it would all be worth it.

The Building Regulations that apply will vary depending on the scope of work. If you would like to line the wall, board out the loft or install a stair to it, the regulations will most likely apply because of the extensive nature of the work. Having worked on loft conversions in Bevendean, you can trust us at Clifton Hill & Montpelier Loft Conversions to work according to the guidelines that apply here. When you work with us, you wouldn’t have to worry about getting the necessary approvals done. How much would I need to spend on a loft conversion in Bevendean? There’s no fixed price for loft conversions, but you can expect to pay at least £20,000 on average. The number of dormers, the size of your extension and your location will all factor into how much you’ll have to pay in the end. As far as the location is concerned, loft conversions in Bevendean aren’t much more expensive than other locations in the UK. Even better, we won’t rip you off by quoting exorbitant prices.

Depending on what you decide, we could opt for any of these loft conversion types:

Rooflight conversion; involves creating a loft conversion without adding any more space to what you already have, but roof lights will be added to the back and front. As an option, you can have windows added to the gable walls. This type of loft conversion saves cost since it doesn’t require making too many changes. Dormer conversion; here, the aim is to expand the space available by putting dormer windows into the pitched roof plane.

To complete the job, we’ll extend the roof over the gables to ensure enough space is created. Gable-to-gable conversions; after building the gable wall, the roof will be rebuilt at the back such that we have a raised, near vertical pitch that’s about the ceiling’s height. A wall with windows will be formed in the end. We’re likely to use this type of loft conversion if yours is a terrace house. If the goal is a large area with full headroom, then this method would work. Mansard conversion; if you opt for this kind of loft conversion, we’ll have to do major work by taking down your roof and putting an entirely new structure in place. The result is an extra storey with four nearly vertical tile-hung walls. The roof we place on top of that will then be nearly flat. Are there any kinds of houses where a loft conversion wouldn’t be practical? For most kinds of houses, it wouldn’t be a problem to do a conversion.

But, loft conversion can be an issue if the shape or pitch of your roof isn’t quite right. Get in touch with us today to schedule an appointment for us to come over to have your roof checked. We’ll need to find out whether the new structure would have enough support from the walls you already have. We won’t have much to worry about installing a loft conversion if there’s a gable end wall. But if yours is a trussed rafter roof like those on older homes, a hipped roof, or an intersecting pitched roof, then a loft conversion won’t be as easy. Our team have experience with loft conversion for homes in Bevendean with many different types of rooves, so we know how to handle a complicated roof.
