Converting Lofts and Attics Ashford
Loft conversions in Ashford transform unused roof space into a fully functional room, whether that be a bedroom, home office or en-suite bathroom. The scope of work and structural approach will vary depending on your existing roof type.
It is one of the most popular types of work we are asked to carry out, and we would love to assist you in making the most of your home. Our team manages everything from the initial preparation and scaffolding through to carpentry, roofing works where required, and a complete interior fit-out covering flooring, plasterboarding, plumbing and electrics.
The main types of loft conversions are:
- Dormer – a structural box that projects outward from the roof slope, providing full-height headroom and additional window space
- Hip-to-Gable – extending a sloping hipped roof side to a vertical gable wall, gaining valuable volume on semi-detached and end-of-terrace properties
- Mansard – one or both roof slopes are rebuilt to a near-vertical angle with a flat roof above, maximising usable space and often requiring planning permission
- Velux / rooflight – retaining the existing roofline and installing windows directly into the slope, ideal where sufficient headroom is already present
- L-shaped – combining a principal rear dormer with a secondary dormer over the rear outrigger, commonly suited to period terraced houses
Regardless of the conversion type, all works encompass structural alterations to the roof, new floor joists, staircase installation, insulation in line with current building regulations and a full internal fit-out.
Alongside our loft converting services in Ashford, we also provide interior remodeling, rendering and plastering, structural wall work and a range of additional services.
