What Are The Main Types Of Loft Conversions Available?
The type of loft conversion that you can create depends on the type of house that you live in. The area you live in will also determine what sort of planning permission is required. You can include, bathrooms, wet rooms or stunning natural light designs and much more.
There are 4 main types of loft conversions that can be done: Dormer Loft Conversion, Hip to Gable Loft Conversion, Mansard Loft Conversion and Velux Loft Conversion. Each has advantages and disadvantages depending on which type will work best with your existing house structure.
Dormer Loft Conversion
Dormer loft conversions are a popular type of conversion in the UK, along with Velux loft conversions. They are the best way for you to expand your home at an affordable price.
The sloped roof side is modified to create vertical walls. A flat roof is added to expand the room’s floor height. Your new loft will make you feel more comfortable, especially if you are tall. These loft conversions can usually be made under your permitted development rights.
Hip-To-Gable Loft Conversion
Although this might seem like a complicated name, it is actually quite simple. The hip-to-gable loft conversion is simply the lifting of one hip of the roof to create more space under the ceiling.
To increase the room height, a new vertical wall can be built from an existing gable.
Mansard Style Loft Conversion
Mansard loft conversions completely replace one half of a property’s roof, while keeping the other half’s roof structure.
This method is more pleasing to the eye than a dormer addition because it fits in the existing house structure.
Because of their extensive nature and real added space, Mansard loft conversions are a great way to increase the value of your home. Due to the substantial restructuring they involve, you will need to apply for full planning permission from your local Planning Authority.
Velux Loft Conversion
This is the simplest method of converting your loft. Because roof windows don’t require roof reconstruction, they are very popular. The framework is left intact. You simply need to fit a skylight inside the roof’s membrane. Your attic will benefit greatly from natural sunlight as the Velux glass acts as a rooflight.
What Type Of Loft Conversion Would Be Best Suited For My Home?
All types of loft conversions may not be suitable for every home. Mansard lofts can be used for detached and semi-detached homes. Velux lofts and dormer conversions work for all types of properties.
Similar to the above, hip-to gable loft conversions work best for semi-detached, detached or end terrace homes.
