Loft conversion
Who do I get in to give me a quote or just advise on if my loft roof needs strengthening up?
Adding a Dormer to a pre existing loft conversion
I already have a loft conversion but I would like to extend the back of it out by adding a dormer in order to add more height and space as it's currently got an apex roof. How much would it cost to just straighten out one side of the roof to a flat top roof style dormer?
Strength of double Mansard loft conversions
Are double Mansard loft conversions structurally strong? And are they durable or high maintenance?
Building regs for loft conversion used as office
If I'm converting a loft for use as a home office rather than a bedroom, will I still need to meet certain building regs?
Cold and warm loft insulation
What's the difference between cold and warm loft insulation?
Keeping loft conversion costs down
What jobs can I do myself when it comes to a loft conversion? I'm quite good at DIY and want to keep costs down.
Ensuring loft conversion is fire safe
How can I make sure my loft conversion is as fire safe as possible? I'm planning to use the space for children's bedrooms.
Velux to dormer conversion cost
I’m weighing up whether the cost of converting a Velux window to a dormer makes sense for the additional space and head-height gain. What should we expect quotes to be?
Increase dormer sizd
My house already has a dormer loft conversion, however, the dormer is quite small and doesn’t go all the way to the edge of the roof. I got an architect in who said the price to increase the dormer is the same as if the conversion had never been done, and essentially we’d need to start again. Is this really the case?
Aesthetics of Mansard loft conversion
A Mansard loft conversion would give us the extra space we need but I think they can look a bit boxy and ugly. What would you suggest we consider to make a conversion look more attractive?
