Types of Loft Conversions in Battersea
Our team specialise in building high quality and bespoke lofts in Battersea. In Battersea we build dormer loft conversions, L-shaped dormers, Velux loft conversions and Mansard Loft conversions. Our team works with you on designing and managing all aspects of the build process. We have a highly skilled and consciences build team that have the knowledge and resources to build a bespoke loft conversion in Battersea.
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 Studies
Rear L-shaped Dormer Loft Conversion in Battersea
We carried out a rear L-shaped dormer loft conversion to a first floor flat in Battersea. This loft conversion enlarged our client’s property from a one bedroom, one bathroom flat to a three bedroom and two-bathroom property. It significantly increased the space in our client’s home. The client’s wanted us to bring the project from conception through to completion. We started with the design phase and planning application. Once planning had been granted and works scheduled, our team started the next phase onsite. Scaffold was erected, in this case we covered the property with a tin roof as the works were being carried out in the autumn and it was important to protect from the inclement weather. The next phases moved quickly from roof removal, through steel installation to rebuilding the roof and walls. Once the structure was watertight the next phase was first fix plumbing and electrics, then plastering and second fix adding the fixtures, fittings and sanitary wear in the bathroom.
There were some nice additional features to this project, including air-conditioning installed throughout the loft space and a significant amount of storage cupboards installed in the eaves. Our build team was onsite for 8 weeks with the whole build process was managed by our project management team. The property type is typical housing stock in Battersea; a terraced Victorian property with the first floor and ground floor being separate flats.
L-shaped Dormer Loft Conversion in Battersea
We completed an l-shaped dormer loft conversion on a first floor, one bedroom flat in Battersea. This Battersea loft conversion resulted in a one-bedroom flat being converted into a three-bedroom maisonette. We also carried out a full refurbishment of the first floor, replacing the kitchen and renovating the existing lounge, bathroom and bedroom. Two features that make this project stand out are, the addition of a rooftop terrace accessible from the landing in the loft conversion and a Juliet balcony with French doors to the second bedroom. We were also able to incorporate two ensuite bathrooms to the two bedrooms in the loft conversion. As you can imagine, the views of London from the terrace are exceptional!
