Are you frustrated with the lack of living space, and insufficient storage?
Have you got an attic that isn’t being used in your Arnold house?
Are you looking for additional storage or living space within your home that doesn’t require you to move or expand outwards?
How would it feel to increase your property’s value by as much as 25%?
A loft conversion may be the best solution for you. Loft conversions are quickly becoming one of the most sought-after ways to expand your home’s space without having to extend its footprint, especially for a growing family who cannot afford a bigger house. It is generally less expensive than moving homes and allows you to improve your living space without taking up any of the surrounding property, and it can also significantly increase your home’s value. Your Loft Conversion can increase your property’s value by as much as 25%, which means that you will be able to make money over the long-term from your loft conversion.
A loft conversion is a great way to add a home office, a home gym, a teenage den, a stunning master suite or an extra guest bedroom.
Converting Your Loft?
A loft conversion or roof extension in Arnold is a cost-effective way to add more space to your home. You already have the space in your home, and it is waiting to be used. Your loft can be transformed into a useful space that you use every day. You can convert it into a master suite with an ensuite, an office, a bedroom for children, a hobby or games room, or even a home cinema.
Why Transform Your Attic In To An Additional Room?
Loft conversions can be a great addition to your home. The most important benefit is the extra living space that it provides. 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 could also convert this area to make a beautiful private gym, or a fun playroom for the children. Converting your attic will both increase its value on the market when you come to sell it as well as giving you more living space. Other benefits of converting your loft include:
- Increase the Value of Your Property: A loft conversion is a great investment that will make your property more valuable.
- Your loft conversion may be customised to meet your particular needs and requirements. You can create the space that best suits your lifestyle.

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 are another popular type of loft conversion. These are the most cost-effective way to increase your home’s size.
The roof’s sloped side can be altered to create vertical walls and a flat roof to increase the area’s underhead height. Your new loft will make it easier to walk in, especially for tall people. These loft conversions are usually eligible under your permitted developments rights.
Hip-To-Gable Style Loft Conversion
Although it might sound strange, this type of conversion is actually much simpler than you may think. A hip to gable loft conversion consists of raising one portion of the roof’s hip so that the room has more space underneath.
To increase the room height, a new vertical wall can be built from an existing gable.
Mansard 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.
Because it is built into the existing house structure, this method converts your loft in a more artistic way than a dormer extension.
Because of their extensive nature and real added space, Mansard loft conversions are a great way to increase the value of your home. 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. Roof windows are very popular as they don’t require any roof restructuring. The roof framework will remain as is. All you have to do is install a skylight in the roof’s liner. Your attic will benefit greatly from natural sunlight as the Velux glass acts as a rooflight.
Which Loft Conversion Is Best For My Home?
Not every type of loft conversion is suitable for every house. Mansard lofts convert semi-detached to detached homes better, whereas dormer and velux lofts work for all types of properties.
The same applies to hip-to-gable lofts. They are best suited for detached, semi-detached and end-terraced houses.
