Loft Conversions in Balham
Balham alongside Clapham is a key area we work and have worked for many years. We have completed Balham loft conversion projects for many young families looking to increase their living space without having to move out of the Balham area. A Balham loft conversion is carried out in order to increase the number of bedrooms and add a bathroom, generally functioning as a master bedroom and ensuite with an added small office or nursery. This part of the city is expensive to buy a new house but provides an easy commute into the city, so is desirable. If you love living in Balham, but need more space, then why not carry out a Balham Loft Conversion? We carry out high quality loft conversions in Balham with minimal disruption to your daily routine. In a Balham loft conversion, we can build an extra bedroom, bathroom and office space in a few weeks without the chaos of having to move.

Balham is one of the best residential areas in London due to its availability of highly regarded schools and local amenities and parks locally. Furthermore, the Victorian and Edwardian housing stock in Balham are particularly spacious and large and very suitable for a dormer loft conversion. Balham borders with Tooting, both areas are within the Borough of Wandsworth. Balham benefits from lots of open spaces with Tooting Bec Common and Tooting Lido nearby and Clapham common adjacent to the area. Lots of local bars, shops and restaurants make Balham a great place to own a property and even better to expand your property with a loft conversion. From Fernlea Road through to Sudbrooke Road, the properties in Balham lend themselves to a dormer or Mansard loft conversion.

Types of Loft Conversions in Balham
We have been building loft conversions in Balham for more than 20 years. We specialise in building high quality loft conversions specifically tailored to your taste and requirements. All works carried out are overseen by our project management team. Your Balham loft conversion project will be managed by a dedicated project manager who will be your point of contact throughout your build. We have a highly skilled team who are very knowledgeable and have the resources to complete a Balham loft conversion of any complexity.
Rear Single Dormer
A single dormer loft conversion is one of the most economical ways to add space to your home. It is quite a simple and straightforward process and hence one of the most popular types of loft conversions. A rear single dormer conversion usually results in the addition of a large master bedroom with ensuite / shower room to the property.
Rear L-Shaped Dormer
An L-shaped dormer loft conversion is a very popular type of conversion for Victorian properties due their existing L-shaped layout. Detached, semi-detached, terraced, conversion and purpose-built flats all lend themselves to this conversion type. The additional loft space “L-shape” extends over the rear outcrop of the ground floor.
Rear Mansard
A rear mansard loft conversion is particularly suited to Edwardian and Victorian terraced houses as well as first floor flats. The party walls are built up in brick, typically London Stock Brick allowing the conversion to be the full width of the property.
Rear L-Shaped Mansard
A rear L-shaped Mansard is very similar to a rear mansard but simply extends out over the rear of the property to form another room. An L-shaped Mansard is particularly suited to a period property and a mid-terrace property.
Hip to Gable Rear Dormer
For a hip to gable loft conversion the roof hip is removed, a new gable wall is raised from the existing walls of the house and the remaining pitched roofline is extended to meet it. The gable wall is usually built up in brick or render to match the existing gable wall.
Velux Loft Conversion
A Velux loft conversion is the simplest of all loft conversion types and is also considered the cheapest way to convert your loft space. It doesn’t require any roof extension but simply a reinforcement and internal reconfiguration of the existing loft and addition of Velux windows to one or both sides of the roof.
London Roof Loft Conversion
A London roof, also known as a butterfly roof, is one that can be converted from front to back so results in one of the largest roof extensions. This conversion type results in the addition of a whole new floor leading to the same floor space as the one below.
Case Study
Dormer Loft Conversion in Balham
We extended an Edwardian property in Balham with a large dormer loft conversion which added a large bedroom with ample storage and a large bathroom to the loft space of our clients property. Here we added large velux windows to the front roof slope of the property and large dormer windows to the rear of the property completely transforming the loft space of this Balham Edwardian house. This project took 8 weeks to complete and we think it looks magnificent..
Here is what our client had to say:
"Creative Space are simply fantastic and i would highly recommend them to anybody who is looking to convert their loft.
I was heavily pregnant when we gave them the job, we had exactly 8 weeks to do the job and they completed on time and within budget. I went into labour the evening the scaffolding came down!
I found the whole team incredibly professional and understanding of our needs. Their quality of work is second to none too.”
