Roof window conversions

Roof windows are often an attractive option for homeowners due to their ability to fit into the line of the roof; thus not necessitating any restructuring of the roof itself. This installation provides the loft space with light.

Dormer conversion

A dormer is a window-featured extension of the roof, usually installed to provide more space and headroom within the loft. Dormers are also popular due to the aesthetic enhancement to a property that they provide.

Other types

In addition to roof window and dormer conversions, there are less common 'hip to gable' and 'mansard' conversions, which can be installed when certain circumstances require their features.

Regulations

Building control regulations

Building control regulations will almost always be required if the loft space is being converted into any usable form of accommodation, subject to the local authority requirements.
