Loft conversions Sidcup

Velux Loft Conversions – Also known as Rooflight Conversions, Velux roof windows are the main feature of this design. These introduce natural light and ventilation into the loft space. No alterations to the roof structure take place. They do require, however, adequate head height. 

Dormer Loft Conversions – Projecting vertically from the roof slope, they add walls and windows to create a functional living area. These create a more usable floor area with increased head height. Typically situated at the rear or sides of the property, dormer conversions have flat or pitched roofs. 

Mansard Loft Conversions – Influenced by the French Baroque style, this design can generate substantial living space. They often convert an entire roof plane, significantly altering the angle of the roof slope to a near-vertical position. Mansards feature a distinct 72° wall, a mostly flat roof, and gables on both sides. 

L-shaped Loft Conversions – Features two dormers that join to form an L-shaped layout to maximise the Victorian property plan. This configuration involves joining two dormers at a right angle, with the primary dormer placed on the main roof and the secondary one on the rear outrigger. 

Hip-to-Gable Loft Conversions – entail the replacement of the hipped end of a roof with a vertical wall, commonly known as the gable end. The gable end is positioned perpendicular to the existing roofline. They can enhance headroom and floor space restricted by a hipped roof.
