Types of Loft Conversions We Build in Buckhurst Hill

Dormer Loft Conversion
A dormer conversion expands the rear roof slope to create a full-height room. This option suits terraced and semi-detached homes in Buckhurst Hill. It often requires planning permission and always needs to meet building control standards.
We deliver:
- Rear and L-shaped dormer plans
- Dormer frame and window construction
- Loft staircase installation
- Floor strengthening and ceiling insulation
- Assistance with planning application and party wall process

Attic Conversion (Interior)
Some lofts don’t need external roof changes, we convert usable attic voids into livable rooms with upgrades to flooring, insulation, and access.
Standard features:
- Loft access stairs
- Reinforced loft flooring
- Roof ventilation and lighting installation
- Electrical and heating setup
- Fire safety door fitting

Velux (Rooflight) Loft Conversion
Velux conversions involve fitting windows into the existing roof without altering the structure. This is a popular option in conservation-sensitive streets or for homes with adequate loft height.
Includes:
- Rooflight window installation with flashings and insulation
- Structural checks and floor strengthening
- Fire protection upgrades and escape access
- Building control submission and sign-off

Mansard Loft Conversion
Mansard conversions involve reshaping the roof with a steep back slope and flat top. It creates the most space but requires planning permission and often involves steel structural work.
What we provide:
- Full mansard loft layout plans
- Roof structure rebuild with dormers
- Insulation and drainage design
- Support with planning and party wall agreements

Hip-to-Gable Loft Conversion
This method replaces a sloping roof end (hip) with a vertical gable wall to expand the internal space. It’s ideal for semi-detached and end-terrace homes in IG9.
Our service includes:
- Gable wall construction with structural support
- Roofline extension and design integration
- Stair design and floor plan reconfiguration
