Velux loft conversion:

Velux Roof Windows
Velux conversion are the most popular choice for a loft conversion, this keeps the structure of your current space but with added roof windows, creates natural daylight and ventilation into a loft or extension space, the loft area will be fully converted from floor to ceiling to ensure everything is being met by building regulations which also includes a stair case for easy accessibility to the loft area
Dormer loft Conversions
Loft Dormers are also another popular type of loft conversion that can add valuable living space to your home. A roof dormer is a feature structure that projects from a property’s existing roofline. The vertical walls and windows are a great way to bring extra headroom and daylight into a loft space. Dormer conversions are potentially suitable for almost any type of house, including terraced, semi-detached, and detached.
Dormers come in a variety of shapes, styles, and sizes. Get your dormer extension design right and it can enhance the look of your home.
Flat roof dormers
These have a box-like structure with a flat roof that is normally constructed to the rear of the property. These give the most internal space and head height as all the walls are vertical
Pitched roof dormer
These feature a pitched roof with two sloping sides to form a triangle below the roofline like a classic doghouse. Small single gables are often built for added light and visual appeal while larger ones offer extra space too
L-Shaped Dormer
This involves constructing two dormers – one over the roof of the main house and a second above the rear extension. The two dormers meet to form the L shape. Popular with homeowners of Victorian terraced properties
Hip to Gable Loft Conversions
A hip to gable loft conversion is a popular option for many semi-detached or detached properties with a hipped roof which is essentially shaped as an “A”. Many properties have a hipped roof this could mean that the existing loft space can be limited, and it may mean that the only way to convert a loft is to expand your property. A hip-to-gable loft conversion essentially extends your property by replacing the sloping roof with a vertical wall, also known as a gable. This will then give you adequate space to convert your loft and utilise the space as you wish.
Hip to gable loft conversions can also be combined with rear dormer and L-shaped loft conversions which then really helps to maximise your property’s potential.
