What's involved in a loft conversion?
Even in a confined loft space, the addition of a couple of VELUX windows can create a surprisingly lighty and airy room that may be ideal as an extra bedroom or a hobby room.
Planning permission
Whether you need planning permission for your loft conversion depends entirely upon which type of loft conversion you require: roof line or dormer.
Types of loft conversion
There are several types of conversion but most fall into one of two categories: Dormer Conversions and Roofline Conversions.
Roofline loft conversions
This option is generally adequate for those contemplating the smaller loft conversion where adequate height is available within the existing loft space.
Dormer loft conversions
Dormer conversions are ideal for when the existing loft space is limited or is of insufficient size for the proposed conversion.
