Types of Loft Conversions
1. Velux
A Velux conversion is built within the existing roof slope with only the addition of Velux roof lights externally. This type of loft conversion is typically found on detached properties with a large existing head height such as Bungalows.
2. Rear Dormer
A Rear Dormer loft conversion is an extension to the existing roof creating additional floor space and head height. A Rear Dormer has square, vertical sides and most commonly a flat roof. Dependent on the size and type of the property and the planning constraints attached to it, a Rear Dormer can either be built stepped in from each side by approximately 300mm or built to the full width of the building.
3. Pitched Dormers
Pitched dormers are very aesthetically pleasing and are often found on properties with a large existing roof space. Pitched dormers can be used to provide additional headroom within certain parts of the loft to accommodate features such as the new loft stairs.
4. L-Shape Dormer
An L-Shape Dormer is of similar construction to a Rear Dormer with an additional back addition outrigger at the rear of the property. This usually extends over an existing first-floor bathroom or bedroom. This type of loft conversion is not possible on all types of properties but is commonly found on those of the Victorian and Edwardian era. The back addition outrigger adds a vast amount of living space to the loft conversion with either the same head height as the main dormer or a slightly reduced head height due to local planning policies.
5. Side Dormer
A Side Dormer is the same shape as a Rear Dormer but is situated on the side of the property. If your house is detached, you may have the option of having two side dormers. Side Dormers usually have flat roofs but, dependent on the local planning policies, may have pitched or crown roofs.
6. Hip to Gable Rear Dormer
Hip to Gable loft conversion is mostly found on semi-detached properties with an existing hipped roof. The hip is extended up vertically from the ridgeline to create a gable and a Rear Dormer is formed to the rear of the property. This type of loft conversion maximizes floor space and head height and is one of the most common types of loft conversion.
