Press Release Body: A loft conversion is the process of transforming an empty attic space into a functional room, typically used as either living accommodation or storage space.
A) Loft Conversions: 1. Mansard Lofts: - Mansard type lofts are formed by building up both party walls. The rear walls are constructed with treated timbers at a 70 pitch and clad in slates. Windows are formed and cladded in lead. This type of loft normally needs planning permission.
2. Dormer Lofts: - Dormer Lofts are constructed in treated timber and clad in slates or tiles to match your property. Normally these are constructed under permitted development.
B) Extensions: 1. Side Return: - These extensions are where we fill in the side return on a terrace or end of terrace property with a rear addition. This can have either a solid sloped roof with velux windows or a glazed roof.
2. Rear Main Extensions: - These extensions are where you have a flat batched property on a terrace detached house; these can vary quite a lot depending on style.
3. Side 2 Story Extensions: - These extensions are built on properties that are either detached or semi detached. The style will vary to suit the look of your property.
