A loft conversion adds valuable living space without taking anything away from your garden. It can become almost anything – an extra bedroom and en-suite, a home office, or a room for the whole family to enjoy.
Extra bedrooms
The most popular use. Whether your family is growing or you want rental income, each extra bedroom can add as much as 10% to the value of your home. Loft bedrooms are ideal for teenagers who want their own space, or create a master suite with en-suite and wardrobe storage.
Home office or study
If you work from home or need somewhere quiet to study, a loft office gives you privacy away from household noise. With good insulation, soundproofing and lighting it makes a professional place to work.
Entertainment room
Family film nights, friends round for games – some lofts are big enough for a large screen and sound system, or even a pool or air hockey table.
Home gym
Exercise without leaving the house or paying gym fees. Add mirrors, weight racks and cardio equipment, and new windows bring in more natural light.
A bespoke design for your home
World of Lofts breathes new light and life into tired loft space, adding Velux or dormer windows with a tailor-made finish that suits the character of your home. From small attic rooms to open-plan spaces with bedrooms, en-suites and studies, our team has the experience and the tools to do it properly – bespoke staircase included.
We take a bespoke approach to every project, to find the best way to create more space in your family home. If you’re thinking of moving just to gain an extra room, a loft conversion is usually a cheaper, less stressful option – and it adds value to the home you’ve already got.
Do I need planning permission?
Most loft conversions in the UK can be built without planning permission, as long as the work meets the criteria in the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 – known as ‘permitted development’. That covers most Velux and many dormer conversions. Where your council does need to be involved, we deal with them for you before any work starts.
