When you get a mansard loft conversion in London, it is built to the rear of your house and has a horizontal roof with a steep sloping back wall. This kind of loft conversion creates a lot of space shaped like an upside-down pyramid. Windows in a Mansard conversion are usually housed within a box-shaped dormer which projects slightly.
When they get an L-shaped mansard loft conversion, London homeowners get a type of mansard roof with a triangular section at the top. This kind of loft conversion is designed to create more space than a rear Mansard as it adds further room. A Double-Mansard is a popular loft conversion in London, and involves the construction of a front and rear Mansard, which effectively adds an entire storey to your property.
Getting a dormer loft conversion in London is a popular choice, an excellent solution for terraced or semi-detached homes. A dormer loft conversion extends the roof vertically to create more headroom and floor space. Unlike a loft conversion using VELUX® windows, London homes do not require structural changes to their roof.
With these loft conversions on London properties, the work is carried out using external scaffolding, generally having little impact on the house. Different types of loft conversion include dormer, internal and rooflight. Each type will vary depending on the type of home (terraced, detached or semi-detached) and its current roof size and shape. Lofts are converted into homes for several reasons: Provides additional headspace and floor space, Economical, Cost Effective Permission is not always required
With the loft conversion using VELUX® windows, London homeowners get a loft conversion where the existing roof space is converted to living space without extending the roof structure. The only visible and discernible external change is the addition of some new roof windows.
As loft conversion specialists in London, we do a lot of loft conversion using VELUX® windows, which are often the most sympathetic option when it comes to external appearance. However, because there is no dormer, they do not provide as much usable internal space as other loft extensions.
Because of their flexibility, loft conversions on London properties are not suitable for all houses but in those instances where such a conversion is possible it can provide interesting attic-style rooms without alterations to the exterior of the building.
A lot of our loft extensions involve doing a hip to gable loft conversion in London. When a pitched roof reduces the usable floor area, a hip-to-gable conversion can be an option to explore. This kind of loft conversion in London ensures that people entering the space don’t hit their heads when walking up or down the stairs. When positioning loft stairs, consider the layout of the floor below. The loft stairs are usually positioned directly above the existing main flight for optimal space creation. The two popular options of hip to gable loft conversion london are:
