Loft Conversion Services

Loft conversions divide into two primary classifications: Velux Conversion preserves the original loft space layout while installing Velux windows to bring in natural light. The dormer conversion involves constructing a dormer structure which expands loft size through increased headroom and floor space.

The Velux Conversion process normally requires 2-3 weeks to finish. A Dormer Conversion usually takes between 5 to 6 weeks to finish.

For a standard 3-bedroom house undergoing a Velux conversion the starting price point stands at approximately £15,000. Dormer conversions typically start at approximately £25,000. The final construction costs change based on how big the project is and how complex the structural works are and along with the second fix finishes that are required.

In most cases, planning permission is not required, as loft conversions fall under permitted development rights. However, planning permission may be required if:

• You live in a conservation area or a listed building.
• You want to install dormer windows facing the road or if a dormer would affect a neighbour’s privacy.
• The conversion would extend beyond the highest part of the existing roof. Your home has already been extended to the limit of its permitted development (typically 15% of its original size).
• If planning permission is required, we will guide you through the application process.

On average, planning approval takes approximately 6 - 8 weeks, depending on your local council’s processing time.
