Loft Conversion FAQ’s
To put it simply, a loft conversion is when a loft or attic is turned into a room that can be used on an everyday basis. There are many uses for loft conversions. Some people use them as an extra bedroom, while others convert them into home offices. Whatever you use yours for, your loft will go from a space that is empty and underutilised to one that serves a clear purpose.
Here at Add a Room, we specialise in three kinds of loft conversion. These are Velux, Dormer, and Hip-to-Gable. Get in touch to find out which one would best for your property.
A loft conversion’s price will vary depending on what kind of conversion you go for, and what you are intending to use your loft space for after work has been completed. A Velux loft conversion is the least expensive, but we work with clients with all kinds of budgets. Contact us, and we will be able to arrange an assessment to give you a quote.
While a loft conversion can seem like a big investment at the time, it is important to remember that they can add a significant amount to a property’s value. So paying for one now could have real long-term benefits.
The great thing about loft conversions is that most of the time, you do not require planning permission. This makes them one of the easiest ways to add some extra space to your home, as you will not have to wait for your planning application to be approved before work can begin.
Of course, there are some instances where you may need to obtain planning permission, such as if your property is listed. We will be able to advise you on whether you will have to apply to your local authorities when we carry out a survey of your loft.

This is our most popular conversion type as it is simply an extension to the existing roof and so is therefore suitable for lots of house types including terraced, semi-detached and detached.
Hip to Gable Loft Conversions
This type of loft conversion is usually built when your home has three separate “hips” (standing side to the roof), which is then extended to the outside wall, where we build up the gable.
Velux Conversion
This is a great option for a smaller loft conversion where adequate height is available within the existing loft space. This is also the simplest conversion without changing the shape of your roof.
