Conversions
London & Home Counties Alliance will help you in planning the different types of conversions as well as help you figure out which type would be suitable and best for you. We also have some architects that can help you design and plan how you want your new build to look.
There are many types of conversions, below are some examples to help you have an idea of what to consider:
Loft conversions- is a great way to extend your home and add another bedroom and bathroom to create space, this will bring proportion into your home and increase its value. Adding another bedroom doesn’t have to be your only option, you can create a cinema room, an office or a teenage den.
Rooflight conversions- this requires the least amount of structural work and therefore most cost effective. The changes that will occur to the existing space are the plastering, strengthening the floor and windows to be set into the slope.
Dormer conversions- this is the most popular option as it’s a way to add light and increase the amount of roof space due to the structure being a flat-roofed dormer. The structure of the roof is altered at the rear or at the sides of the house.
Modular extension- this is only used when the existing loft space is unsuitable for the conversion and the measurements taken will be manufactured off site before being delivered as a module. The existing roof will be removed and the new module will be installed.
