Are you thinking about a loft conversion as a way to open up space in your house to avoid the necessity to relocate? Then use our no cost and easy service to compare quotes and get the best price for the work you would like carried out.
Loft conversions are proving to be more popular then ever in the UK. In most houses the attic accounts for unused space which would be put to better use. Converting can turn the room into a bedroom, bathroom, playroom or perhaps ensuite bedroom.
In fact there's a lot of potential to transforming your attic, including the added value for your house which can be as much as 20%. Attic conversions are also suggested over a home extension as the infrastructure has already been in place. Additionally, you won't be removing any garden space.
If a loft space conversion would benefit your home and you're looking for extra space, compare quotes from reputable companies in St. Albans and get the best offer for the work you want completed.
The regular cost of a Loft conversion is £25000. Costs differ based upon the materials and the firm selected. The upper price range can be as high as £28750. The material costs are mainly approximately £6250

Planning permission is not normally needed for a loft conversion as they are covered by permitted development rights. A conversion company will tell you if you do and help you with this. For more information, see our article about planning permission.
Many types of loft are suitable for a loft conversion. In general, you will need at least 2.3 metres of headroom in your existing loft. This is to make sure there is enough headroom after the conversion. Speak to a conversion specialist about the probability and possibility of doing this in your house.
Typically, loft conversions do not require planning permission except in certain situations. They’re usually covered under what’s known as Permitted Development. Certain building works like loft conversion, rear extension and conservatories are granted planning permission by local authorities. Permitted Development, however, gives you a free range to improve your home without having any issues from the councils or regulations. Before your planned loft conversion can be covered under Permitted Development, there are some certain criteria that must be met. This criteria includes the following:
✓ The extension must not go beyond the existing slope of the roof at the front of the house.
✓ The loft space converted must not go beyond 40 cubic metres in a terraced house.
✓ The roof’s height must not be increased by the extension.
✓ The loft space converted must not reach beyond 50 cubic metres in a detached or semi detached house.
✓ The plan for the extension mustn’t involve structures like balconies, verandas or anything other structures of this nature.
✓ The roof extension should be positioned as far back as possible or at least 20cm from the existing eaves.
✓ The side that faces the window openings should be at least 1.7m beyond the floor and the windows should also be obscured.
✓ The roof extension must not overhang the existing roof or wall of the house.
✓ The materials that are to be used must be similar or the same to the materials that has already been used on the house’s exterior.
However, you should bear in mind that there are some properties that are exempt from Permitted Development. Examples of these type of properties include conservation areas, Areas Of Outstanding Natural Beauty and World Heritage sites. Permitted Development does not also provide coverage for listed buildings.
It depends on the style and size of the conversion, but in general, a loft conversion will take between 1-2 months. A loft conversion is a substantial building project, and plans will need to be drawn up. This may add to the time it takes to complete your loft conversion.
