Conversions in Tolworth
Enhance your home’s space and value with a professionally designed loft conversion. Transforming an unused attic into a stylish, functional area is a smart and cost-effective alternative to a traditional extension. By making use of your existing footprint, a loft conversion allows for a quicker and less disruptive way to expand your home. Many standard loft conversions fall under permitted development, eliminating the need for planning permission. Once approved, work can commence within 48 hours, ensuring a smooth and efficient process. The best loft conversion for your property will depend on its structure and layout, allowing for a customised solution that optimises space and enhances your lifestyle.
A loft conversion provides versatile living options, whether you are looking to add an extra bedroom, a luxurious master en-suite, a home office, or a recreational space. At Home Improvement & Construction Ltd (HICL), we specialise in delivering high-quality, bespoke loft conversions featuring modern electrics, stylish lighting, premium bathrooms, top-quality windows and doors, and bespoke woodwork. To ensure compliance with fire safety regulations, we install fire doors throughout the property or, alternatively, fit a fire door in the loft room with integrated smoke alarms on each floor. With our expertise and meticulous craftsmanship, we create elegant and functional spaces tailored to meet your needs while significantly enhancing your property’s value.
Dormer Conversion
This will create additional floor space and head room, projecting vertically at the rear, whilst keeping the slope of the roof at the front.
Velux Conversion
This is the least invasive option as new Velux windows are installed, flush to the existing roof line. Due to the lack of roof alteration here, planning permission is usually not required.
Hip to Gable Conversion
A more ambitious project in terms of space. This conversion will change the look of the roof from both aspects and will often create extra space for the new staircase.
Why consider a loft conversion?
Loft conversions are one of the most popular and relatively cost-effective ways of adding value to your home. If you are able to divide up your loft space into a new bedroom and bathroom, you will be adding two of the most sought-after extra rooms in any home. Research has shown that this kind of work to your property can increase its value by up to 20%.
Loft conversions are generally a much quicker proposition than an extension and are far less disruptive to your day to day living. Once the knock through has taken place to install your new staircase, the majority of the build will be going on without you even noticing.
Keep it under one roof! It is no secret that better insulation in your home will help heat loss and make your whole house more energy efficient. With that in mind, it is a known fact that heat is lost through the roof of your house, so if you decided to convert your loft space, you will be obligated to insulate the rafters with a minimum of 150mm of insulation, thereby creating a block to heat loss in your home.
If we are totally honest with ourselves, most roof spaces are used to store the clutter that we no longer want or need. By creating a new, attractive living space, you will have the opportunity to declutter or recycle the items that you no longer have a use for and in return, you will gain a room with a view! Given that the loft is the highest point of any house, by creating a room in that space, you will undoubtedly end up with unspoilt views of your neighbourhood as opposed to views of other people’s brick walls and cars. This has to be a win:win!
