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.
To increase the loft’s height, the roof slope is modified to create vertical walls and a flat roof. 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 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 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 conversion is much more beautiful than a dormer extensions because it seamlessly fits into the existing structure of your house.
Mansard loft conversions will add the most value and space to your home due to the nature of the work and the extra space. Because of the extensive restructuring involved, they will require a full planning permission application from your Local Planning Authority.
Roof Window Or Velux Loft Conversion
This is the simplest method of converting your loft. Because there is no need to modify the roof, adding roof windows is very common. You can leave your roof structure as is and simply fit a skylight into the roof’s lining. As a skylight, the Velux windows will let in natural light which will greatly benefit your attic.
What Type Of Loft Conversion Would Be Best Suited For My Home?
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.
The same applies to hip-to-gable lofts. They are best suited for detached, semi-detached and end-terraced houses.
