What Are The Main Types Of Loft Conversions Available?
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 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 sloped roof side is modified to create vertical walls. A flat roof is added to expand the room’s floor height. Your new loft will make your life easier, especially if you are tall. These loft conversions can usually be made under your permitted development rights.
Hip-To-Gable Loft Conversion
Although this might seem like a complicated name, it is actually quite simple. The hip-to-gable loft conversion is simply the lifting of one hip of the roof to create more space under the ceiling.
From the existing gable, a vertical wall is constructed. This allows for substantial room height improvements.
Mansard Style Loft Conversion
Mansard loft conversions completely replace one half of a property’s roof, while keeping the other half’s roof structure.
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 Loft Conversion
This is the most straightforward way to convert your loft. Because roof windows don’t require roof reconstruction, they are very popular. The framework is left intact. You simply need to fit a skylight inside the roof’s membrane. Your attic will benefit greatly from natural sunlight as the Velux glass acts as a rooflight.
Which Loft Conversion Is Best For My Home?
Some loft conversions are not suitable for all houses. 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.
Similar to the above, hip-to gable loft conversions work best for semi-detached, detached or end terrace homes.
