Basildon Loft Space Leads
A loft conversion is a big decision and to make the process as easy as possible for you we try to follow a certain plan of action to keep things as simple as possible.
Firstly when you initially contact us we will talk about your requirements over the phone and ascertain what you are looking for us to achieve for you. We will then organise a survey so that we properly assess the full scope of works.
This is the point where we can discuss the project in depth together. There will be many factors that we will need to take into consideration from working out if planning permission is needed to checking the overall structure of your roof. We will then go on to assess things such as the most suitable positioning for a stair case, to flooring requirements, fixtures and fittings, and so on.
The next step will be for us to prepare a detailed quotation for you. This will give you a clear understanding of what was discussed and outline the proposed works and projected loft conversion cost.
When you are ready to proceed we can then finalised things such as planning requirements and architects drawings, etc, and then arrange a suitable start date.
During the whole process from starting the works to completion we will make sure that:
- You are kept informed at every stage of the project
- Your property is kept as clean and tidy as possible
- Your services such as gas, electric, water and heating have the least disruption.
- The disturbance caused to your family and neighbours is kept to an absolute minimum.
- Any concerns that you have are addressed as quickly as possible.
FAQs
Hip to Gable loft conversion
A hip roof slants on all four sides and is known to be one of the strongest roof structures there is.
A gable roof slants on two sides and the other two sides are a continuation of the wall to fill in the triangle of the roof up to the ridge.
A hip to Gable loft conversion is where the existing sloped part of the roof (the hip) which basically reduces the useable floor area is removed and converted to a gable end. This can be a continuation of the brick finish used for the wall or a tiled or wood panel finish.
A Mansard loft conversion takes the slope of the front or rear of a roof and basically extends it outwards to near enough a vertical side to an angle of at least 72 degrees. The roof is then near enough flat and its common for the windows to be enclosed within small dormers.
L-Shaped Loft Conversion
An L Shaped loft conversion is where two dormers are connected together to form an L shape. They can offer a great deal of space, but are normally only suitable for properties where there is a back addition to the property.
Dormer Loft Conversion
Dormer loft conversions are simply where a pitched roof is converted to form a box like structure. This helps to increase the space in the loft and make it possible for conversion. The walls on a dormer conversion will then sit at a 90 degree angle to the floor.
Bungalow loft conversion
Bungalows are perfect for conversions in most cases. A lot of the time the roofs have a high pitch which also makes head room no issue at all. A bungalow can however have dormers installed as well so there are many options available.
Velux loft Conversion
If your property has ample head room in the loft then a Velux loft conversion is the most simple and likely to be the cheapest option. The amount of construction work is much less then a dormer window and installation of velux windows can be installed into your roof with relative ease.
