Are you frustrated by a lack of living space, and not enough storage space?

Are you a Mount resident with an unused attic?

Are you looking for additional storage or living space within your home that doesn’t require you to move or expand outwards?

Imagine if you could increase your property’s value by up to 25 percent.

Then a loft conversion might be the solution you are looking for. Loft conversions are becoming a very popular option for adding space to your home without increasing its overall footprint, especially for a growing family who cannot afford to move to a bigger house. You can make your home more spacious without moving, and it is cheaper than buying a new home. Loft conversions can increase the value of your home by up to 25%, meaning that you’re likely to make more money over the long term from your loft conversion.

A loft conversion is a great way to add a teenage den, a stunning master suite, a home gym, a home office or an extra guest bedroom.

What’s A Loft Conversion?

A roof extension or loft conversion in Mount is a great way to create extra space in your home cost effectively. The space is already there and waiting to be used. Your loft can be transformed into a useful space that you use every day. It can be converted into a master room with an ensuite, a guest room, an office, a kids’ bedroom or playroom, hobby room, a gym, or even a home theater!

Why Convert Your Attic Into An Additional Room?

Loft conversions can be a great addition to your home. One of the main benefits it will give you is more living space. You may need another room if you have a growing family. Perhaps you simply want to have the space to host family members over weekends and holidays. You can also make this space a great place for your children to play or create your own private gym. Converting your attic can not only increase your home’s living space but also increase its resale value. Loft conversions also have other benefits including:

What Are The Different Types Of Loft Conversions?

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 Style Loft Conversion

Dormer loft conversions have become a very popular choice of conversions in the UK. These are the best method to increase the size of your home for a reasonable price.

The roof’s sloped side is altered to make vertical walls, and a flat roof to increase the room’s underhead height. Your new loft will make it easier to walk in, especially for tall people. Most of these loft conversions will be eligible under your permissible development rights.

Hip-To-Gable Loft Conversion

This may sound complicated, but it is really not. A hip-to–gable loft conversion simply involves the raising of one roof hip to provide more space below the floor.

It is possible to create a new vertical walls from the existing gables, giving rise to significant height gains.

Mansard Style Loft Conversion

The mansard loft conversion completely replaces one half of a property’s roof, to give it an additional floor. However, the roof structure on the opposite side is preserved.

This method is more pleasing to the eye than a dormer addition because it fits in the existing house structure.

Mansard lofts can increase your home’s value due to their extensive nature and added space. They require full planning permission applications to your Local Planning Authority, due to the extensive restructuring they entail.

Velux Loft Conversion

This is the easiest method to convert your loft. Because roof windows don’t require roof reconstruction, they are very popular. You can leave your roof structure as is and simply fit a skylight into the roof’s lining. Your attic will benefit greatly from natural sunlight as the Velux glass acts as a rooflight.

What Type Of Loft Conversion Is Best Suited To My House?

Not every type of loft conversion is suitable for every house. Dormer or Velux, are suitable for all kinds of property. Mansard lofts, however, are better suited for semi-detached or detached homes due to the extra construction space they require.

Also, hip to-gable loft conversions suit semi-detached, detached, or end-terraced properties for the same reasons.

Loft Conversion Frequently Asked Questions

Where do you put stairs for a loft conversion?

Usually, the stairs to your loft conversion are best placed over the existing staircase in terms of convenience and efficient use of space. If this is not possible, a small room or part of a large room may be sacrificed to accommodate the stairs.

What lofts Cannot be converted?

As a general rule, 2.2m from floor to ceiling at its highest point is the threshold for undertaking a loft conversion. If your loft does not meet this requirement, it's highly unlikely you'll be able to raise your pitch roof, since councils very rarely grant permission to do that.

How long does a loft conversion take?

On average, loft conversions can be done in as little as 4 weeks or may take up to 8 weeks, with certain styles less complex than others. Here are the different loft conversion types, broken down by a rough time estimation: Roof light conversions – 4 weeks on average. Dormer conversions – 5 weeks on average.

Can I stay in house during loft conversion?

If you want to stay in your home during a loft conversion, we say it's perfectly possible. You just need to be realistic about the work that will be undertaken.

Can I use my loft as a bedroom?

But when it comes to being a bedroom, a converted loft room cannot be called a bedroom merely because it offers enough space to fit a bed in, or because one has been put in there: a loft needs to be converted for the purposes of being a sleeping area, and in accordance with building regulations, in order to be called a bedroom
