Types of Loft Conversions We Provide
Velux Loft Conversions
Velux conversions offer budget-friendly extra space, ideal for lofts with ample headroom. They involve minimal disruption compared to dormers, mansards, and hip-to-gables. They may also be built without planning permission in most cases, as it’s only the addition of windows to the external structure of the house and roof. Be aware that planning permission might be necessary if your property falls within a conservation area, heritage zone, or if you reside in a flat. Our team at Midland County Lofts will provide you with all advice and necessary steps before going ahead with plans. If you’re looking for types of loft conversions to consider, then Velux brings you the following features.
Velux Loft Conversion Features & Benefits
- Light and ventilation
- Privacy with sky-facing windows, perfect for bathrooms, bedrooms and offices.
- Can be fit with blackout blinds that keep the room cool in the summer
- Smart windows- you can have automatic windows installed or sensors that detect rain, and insulated sound reduction
- Typically the cheapest type of loft conversions
Mansard Loft Conversion
Mansard conversions are often the most spacious loft conversion option, thanks to their angled walls and flat roofs. They can be used for a variety of purposes, such as creating bedrooms, bathrooms, home offices, or even a whole new living area. While they may require planning permission, the increased value and enjoyment they add to your home can often outweigh the initial investment. Mansard conversions offer more head-height space than say, a dormer loft conversion, and they can look a lot sleeker from the ground. Their generous size allows for versatile layouts. You can easily create two bedrooms and a bathroom, a spacious home office. They can be fitted with a Juliet balcony or/or dormer windows.
Mansard Loft Conversion Features & Benefits
- Increased living space with maximised headroom
- Improved energy efficiency
- Flexible design options to complement the property type
- May not need planning permission
Dormer Loft Conversion
This budget-friendly option extends from your existing roof slope, creating valuable headroom and floor space. Plus, the work is largely done from outside, minimising disruption inside your home. You can choose from various dormer loft conversion styles to fit your house type (terraced, semi-detached, detached) and existing roof shape. The simple structure of a flat roof dormer loft conversion is added to the front end or rear end of the loft. It’s a simpler solution to expanding your space and increasing head space. With the dormer windows, your room will be bathed in sunlight too. While similar to the flat-roofed dormer, the shed dormer takes a subtle twist. Its gently sloping roof, often using different materials, shines on homes with gable roofs, offering additional design flexibility.
Dormer Loft Conversion Features & Benefits
- Lots of potential for natural lights with skylights, dormer windows or a Juliet balcony
- Overhead space made with vertically built walls
- Minimal disruption with construction work
- Reduced energy costs with thermal insulation
- Options for different roof types
Hip to Gable Loft Conversion
An increasingly common choice for many semi-detached or detached homes is a hip-to-gable loft conversion. This type of loft conversion involves extending your property by replacing a sloping roof with a vertical wall, known as a gable. If you want to maximise your space to your property’s full potential, a double hip-to-gable conversion involves extending both sides of the roof. This conversion type is ideal for semi-detached homes, detached residences, bungalows, and chalets.
Hip Roof-
The hip-like shape of a hip roof is created by the sloping sides coming together at the ridge. Compared to a gable roof, the roof is more sturdy and wind-resistant because to its four sloping sides. Though they need more work to construct than gable roofs, hip roofs offer more useable attic space.
Gable Roof-
Two sloping sides that come together to form a triangle at the roof’s ridge define a gable roof. Compared to a hip roof, this kind of roof is easier to build and offers more attic space.
Hip to Gable Loft Conversion Features & Benefits
- Increased living space for any room type
- Improved aesthetics, the exterior of your home won’t look awkward, the construction can be seamless
- New roofing materials, windows, and insulation can increase the home’s energy efficiency
- Additional headspace, with a double hip to gable, the conversion is like a full room that was always there
- Increase the value of your property
