What Are The Different Types Of Loft Conversions?
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 are a popular type of conversion in the UK, along with Velux loft conversions. They are the best way for you to expand your home at an affordable price.
The roof’s sloped side can be altered to create vertical walls and a flat roof to increase the area’s underhead height. Your new loft will make you feel more comfortable, especially if you are tall. Most of these loft conversions will be eligible under your permissible development rights.
Hip-To-Gable Style Loft Conversion
You might be apprehensive about this type of conversion, but it’s actually very simple. A hip-to gable loft conversion is simply an elevation of one side of the roof’s hip in order to increase the underhead space.
To increase the room height, a new vertical wall can be built from an existing gable.
Mansard Style Loft Conversion
The mansard loft conversion is a complete replacement of one side of the roof on a property to make it more spacious. It also preserves the roof structure on the other side.
Because it is built into the existing house structure, this method converts your loft in a more artistic way than a dormer extension.
Mansard loft conversions add the greatest value to your house because of the extent of the work involved and the added space. Because of the extensive restructuring involved, they will require a full planning permission application from your Local Planning Authority.
Roof Window Or Velux Loft Conversion
This is the easiest method to convert your loft. Because roof windows don’t require roof reconstruction, they are very popular. Your roof frame will stay the same, so all you need to do is insert a skylight directly into your roof’s covering. Natural light will make your attic more useful as the Velux window acts like a skylight.
What Type Of Loft Conversion Would Be Best Suited For My Hill Top Home?
All types of loft conversions may not be suitable for every home. Mansard lofts can be used for detached and semi-detached homes. Velux lofts and dormer conversions work for all types of properties.
Similar to the above, hip-to gable loft conversions work best for semi-detached, detached or end terrace homes.
