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 Loft Conversion

Dormer loft conversions have become a very popular choice of conversions in the UK. These are the most cost-effective way to increase your home’s size.

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 you feel more comfortable, especially if you are tall. These loft conversions are usually eligible under your permitted developments rights.

Hip-To-Gable Loft Conversion

This may sound complicated, but it is really not. A hip-to gable loft conversion is simply an elevation of one side of the roof’s hip in order to increase the underhead space.

From the existing gable, a vertical wall is constructed. This allows for substantial room height improvements.

Mansard Style Loft Conversion

The mansard loft conversion is a complete replacement of one side of the roof on a property to make it more spacious. It also preserves the roof structure on the other side.

Because it is built into the existing house structure, this method converts your loft in a more artistic way than a dormer extension.

Mansard lofts can increase your home’s value due to their extensive nature and added space. Because of the extensive restructuring involved, they will require a full planning permission application from your Local Planning Authority.

Velux Or Roof Window Loft Conversion

This is the most straightforward way 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.

Which Type Of Loft Conversion Is More Suitable For My Home?

Not every type of loft conversion is suitable for every house. 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.
