Loft Conversions in Patcham

Professional loft conversions in Patcham

As your family grows, it’s only natural that you would want a bigger space to accommodate everyone. Don’t fret about having to buy a new house because you can simply add an extension to your existing home to create more space.

Benefits of a loft conversion

There’s no limit to the number of reasons why homeowners in Patcham opt for loft conversion. One of the most common reasons is to create an extra bedroom to ensure there’s enough space for every member of 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.

A loft conversion project can be completed in good time, compared to other methods that may take longer or require garden space. In addition, it’s generally cost effective and less expensive than moving into a new place. Also, a loft extension doesn’t affect your beautiful garden and in most cases, doesn’t require planning permission. You can trust us to deliver a loft conversion that’s as perfect as you have envisioned it in your mind, from start to finish. Clifton Hill & Montpelier Loft Conversions have been creating unique loft builds and designs for homeowners in Patcham for a while, allowing them enjoy their beautiful homes even better.

Is a loft conversion really a good idea?

Absolutely. Loft conversions are definitely beneficial, regardless of why you want them – nursery, bedroom and bathroom, or something else. Loft conversions don’t take too much time before the work is done. 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.

As the extent of work differs, the Building Regulations that apply also vary. The more extensive the job, the more likely the regulations are to apply, for instance, if you have to install a stair, board out the loft or line a wall.

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

Rooflight conversion; here, the existing roof space will be converted with roof lights added to the front and back to avoid increasing the volume of the roof. If desired, we may also add windows into the gable walls. More than any other type of loft conversion, rooflight conversion is cost-effective since you won’t be making too many alterations. Dormer conversion; here, we’ll be adding dormer windows into the pitched roof plane in order to increase the amount of space available to you at the front, sides or back.

The roof will then be extended over the gables to create sufficient space. Gable-to-gable conversion; this method involves building the gable wall and rebuilding the roof at the back to raise the pitch and make it nearly vertical up to the height of the ceiling. This type of loft conversion will result in a wall with windows. The most common kind of house we use this method for is the terrace house. It’s ideal for creating a large space with full headroom. Mansard conversion; this type of loft conversion involves removing your roof entirely and replacing it with a new structure resembling a box. This is like adding another storey with near vertical tile-hung walls. We’ll then place an almost flat roof on top. Will a loft conversion be possible for every kind of house? Most buildings wouldn’t have any problems with a loft conversion.

But, in other cases, a loft conversion may not be possible due to the shape and pitch of the existing roof. Get in touch with us today to schedule an appointment for us to come over to have your roof checked. We’ll need to inspect your house to determine whether it can provide the needed support for the new structure. It will be easy to carry out a loft conversion if your roof has a gable end wall. For a hipped roof, an intersecting pitched roof, or a trussed rafter roof on an older home, however, it could be a problem. We have worked on a variety of roof types in and around Patcham, so you can count on us to deliver even if yours is a complicated roof.
