 One of the most important aspects of loft design is being able to turn the attic space into useable living space that matches your dreams, ideas and aspirations.
Of paramount importance is the amount of attic floor space that can be converted into useable living space and this, along with the pitch and height of the roof itself and space within the house to construct an access stairway to the loft area, will govern what is possible.
 Headroom within the loft area is probably one of the most critical aspects of any design, particularly if the new room is going to be used by adults on a regular basis, like a double bedroom, sitting room, study or home-office for example. In such instances, a dormer extension is probably the most suitable solution, as this will provide a significantly larger full-height space, enabling adults to walk around with ease.
 But if the room is primarily intended for children, say as a playroom, or as an extra single-bedroom for an occasional guest, then a dormer may not be required. A straightforward conversion of the existing attic space with the addition of roof-line windows may be all that is required.
Either way, we will provide you with all the information you need to make the best use of the space in terms of layout and design, including the financial implications of each choice, enabling you to decide what is the best solution for your needs, both in terms of cost and useable space.
