Loft Conversion Hayes

A loft conversion is the process of turning unused attic space in your Hayes home into a functional room like an extra bedroom or study. It’s an excellent way to make better use of underutilised space.

The cost of a loft conversion depends on various factors, including the size of your loft, the type of conversion chosen and any structural reinforcements required. Interior design choices, such as flooring, lighting and finishes, also contribute to the overall price.

In most cases, loft conversions in Hayes do not require planning permission, as they fall under permitted development. However, homes in conservation areas or listed buildings may need approval. Our team will handle all aspects of this phase for you. 

There are many types of loft conversions; a few of it include the following;

Velux – Installing Velux windows in the loft space without making any structural changes.

Dormer – Adds extra space and height by extending the roof.

Hip-to-gable – Converts a sloped roof into a vertical wall for increased headroom.

Mansard – A stylish option that creates a near-vertical wall and flat roof for maximum space.

Absolutely. Loft conversions are a proven way to enhance the value of your Hayes property, often adding a significant percentage to its market price while increasing its overall appeal.

It normally takes approx. 8-10 weeks to complete a loft conversion depending on the type and size.

Not at all. The old water tank can be decommissioned by our qualified plumbers. Chimneys can either be boarded out or removed to create more floor space, depending on your requirements.

You can easily check this if you have a loft access hatch and ladder. Try and measure the distance from the top of your first-floor ceiling joists to the underside of loft ridge timber. You need a minimum 2.5m to achieve the floor-to-ceiling height of 2m which is the minimum requirement. If your loft height falls short of 2.5m, you may need to drop the first-floor ceilings to achieve minimum height.
