Types of loft conversions
We diligently plan all our loft conversions to ensure they are completed smoothly and on schedule. Our efficient and forward-thinking process ensures an efficient and effective worksite. We’ve completed a number of loft conversions in Sussex and are proud to show the incredible quality of our work.
Dormer loft conversion
A dormer conversion is the addition of a box-like structure to the top of the property – replacing the existing roof. This sort of conversion gives you more headroom and maximises your new space. This is a very popular conversion to its versatility – it can be installed in many different positions and on many different types of roofs.
Hip to gable loft conversion
If your property’s loft already has sufficient headroom, you can maximise this with a hip to gable conversion. This takes the ‘hip end’ of a hipped roof and extends it to become a ‘gable’ roof, making the top of the house resemble a triangular prism. This gives you more room without majorly affecting the look of your house.
Velux loft conversion
This conversion uses the space that already exists in your loft without any major structural work. This makes it quicker to complete and less disruptive than a dormer conversion. By installing windows in the roof, it allows in natural light and creates an inviting living space.
Trussed roof loft conversion
A trussed roof conversion is a more dramatic structural change to your loft. It involves replacing the ‘W’ shaped truss beams that support the roof in the loft with steel beams. This will require designs from a structural engineer, but our expert team can follow their plans to deliver you a beautiful spacious loft conversion.
L-shaped loft conversion
If your house – and loft – has a right-angle bend in it, then an L-shaped dormer might be right for you. This is where two dormers are constructed and joined together on each roof. This allows you more space in your home while still preserving most of the existing structure of your roof.
Mansard dormer loft conversion
A stylish and highly desirable option, mansard dormer loft conversions create almost an entirely new floor of your house. They offer maximum space and head height and cover almost the entire length of your roof. They are popular for the practicality they offer while looking attractive and preserving the aesthetic of your property.
Low pitch loft conversion
A rarer option available to homeowners with less headroom in their lofts. We will work with you to make sure that we can maximise that space and leave you with a usable living space. A low pitch loft conversion causes less disruption and is less costly than other conversions.
Which loft conversion
is right for your home?
Semi-detached house loft conversion
Semi-detached homes are perfect for loft conversions. They are straightforward to work on and you can gain an incredible amount of space for the price of the project. The best conversions for semi-detached houses are hip to gable and dormer.
Pre-war home loft conversion
Houses from the pre-war period often have large amounts of space in the attic making them excellent candidates for conversion. They are best suited to hip to gable, dormer, or Velux loft conversions. The best option of the three depends on the specific structure of your roof.
Bungalow loft conversion
Adding a loft conversion onto your bungalow can greatly increase not just liveable space but property value as well. A hip to gable, dormer, Velux, or mansard loft conversion would all work perfectly for a bungalow. Each would give you varying levels of space and work within a number of different homes and budgets.

How much head height do you need for a loft conversion in Crawley?
