Types and Costs of Loft Conversion in London | Tailored Lofts

Double dormer loft type is also called L-shape dormer and is the most efficient loft conversion type in terms of costs and value added. It can be constructed on a terraced house with a two storey annex at rear. Rear part of the main roof is completely removed, new dormer structure is constructed. The rear annex single pitch roof is completely removed and dormer structure is added. Normally the main room would have a window or a Juliette balcony and the rear dormer would have a window. Front pitched part of the roof can be re-slated / re-tiled or left as it is - depending on condition. Normally you have few options of how the spaces can be organized:

one bedroom within the main space, bathroom in the rear dormer. In this case, if the rear dormer is big enough, there may be a space for bathroom and some storage or even a small study;

one bedroom and en-suite bathroom within the main space and another bedroom within the rear dormer;

one bedroom and shared bathroom within the main space and a bedroom within the rear dormer.

The choice usually depends on one's preference - either bigger bedroom space or bigger bathroom, whether bathroom is shared or not, the amount of light getting into the bedrooms, etc.

Typical terraced houses in Walthamstow, Woodford, Leyton, etc. are around 7m long from front wall to rear wall internally (to wall with a window facing the side return, if there is a rear annex) and 4.2-4.5 m width (from one party wall to another internally). The double dormer loft conversion costs on such average house would be in the region of £33000 + VAT and upwards, depending on size of the house, whether bathroom installation is required or not, what state of finishing is required, etc. Normally it takes around 10 weeks to complete the project. We feel double dormer is really the most sensible choice - for an extra £8000 - £10000 + VAT you can have two bedrooms added to the house against only one bedroom in a single dormer type project. Customers normally are required to supply dormer windows / doors, fittings, equipment and finishes.

Loft Conversion Stages & Process North East London | Tailored Lofts

Loft Conversion Stages & Process North East London | Tailored Lofts

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Structurally, from the builder's view, every loft conversion may vary a little bit. However, there are common procedures and stages which are no different with any type of attic conversion project. Quite often our prospective customers ask us where to start and what needs to be done before the actual building works can start. Here we will try to explain that in detail.

Initial survey. First, as with any other project, an initial survey is carried out: checking of the current building structure, roof type, joists layout, space available for conversion, height between the ceiling joists and the roof gable, current stairs arrangement. These factors are crucial in determining if the conversion is feasible at all. Once feasibility is approved, the type of conversion is decided: eaves, dormer, hip to gable or mansard. Some conversions are easier to implement, some are more difficult - the easiest being eaves conversion, when all the new room space is constructed within the existing attic space.

Architect drawings and calculations. Then the architect prepares the draft drawings - to help visualize the proposed extra room. Once the draft plans are approved by the customer, the architect draws detailed plans, structural calculations are made. If the customer is happy with the final plans, these are submitted to the Local Authority for approval - building control notice is served and full plans application is submitted. This applies to permitted development, if the extra loft space doesn't exceed 40 cubic meters on terraced houses and 50 cubic meters on a semi detached properties. In other cases (including when loft is converted above a flat) a planning permission will be required. You can read more about this here.

Party wall notice. Next (or better, just as soon as you get the draft plans) - a party wall notice must be served to your neighbours. Most often the project will affect a party wall (steel beams must be inserted halfway into the party wall) and the consent from neighbours will be needed. Legally your neighbours are obliged to reply in no longer than two months and without it you would not be able to start works. In some cases (especially when the next door property is in some sort of shared ownership) your neighbours may dissent. This procedure then may take longer - both parties will have to appoint surveyors, some more paperwork will be involved. Consequently this will slightly raise the overall costs and delay the project starting date.

Building control approval. On average it takes about 4 weeks from the date the architect submits the full plans (including structural calculations) application to the Local Authority to get the building control approval. Building inspector comes to check the current state of the building, discuss the proposed works (especially those affecting the structural integrity of the property) with the building company. The structural calculations must be also approved in writing by the Council engineer - he checks adequacy of all load bearing elements. Also, at this point we always advice to get from a local Council a Certificate of Lawful development for the project - this way you can be certain that no legal issues would arise with the planning authorities.

Construction stage. When the neighbours consent and the Council approval is in place, the building works can begin. Firstly the existing structures are altered, timber frames constructed: steel beams and floor joists installed, roof and walls structure constructed. At this stage the Building Inspector comes to check if all is according to plans. Then work continues externally to close the new space, make it weatherproof: windows, roofing, flashing, fascias, guttering installed. Next - insulation is fitted and the Inspector comes again to check if it conforms to building regulations. Then electrics and plumbing first fix carried out - wires and pipes are installed. Stairs are constructed and the new loft is drylined with plasterboards. Finally - plastering, painting decorating, electrics and plumbing second fix, flooring installed.

Certificates. Once construction is finished, the required electrical (and if needed - gas) certificates are issued. The Council Inspector comes for the final check - if the new loft meets the fire resistance requirements and if the project finished satisfactorily, the Local Authority issues a completion certificate. This certificate shows that the finished works comply with the current building regulations.

All this is easy when you choose a reputable loft conversion company. The only remaining job to the customer - selecting the final finishes, equipment and fittings.

Enlarge your home, don't move. Given the dramatic properties prices increase in the last years and changes in taxation, enlarging the present London home by adding a loft extension or a kitchen extension or both (as quite often happens) is really the preferred and most sensible option that any growing family chooses rather than moving a home.

Positive reviews. Having been in this industry for many years we know what our customers really need - a hassle free service that delivers a quality result on time and budget. A happy customer is our ultimate goal: we always aim to organize our work in the most efficient way - cause minimum disruption during the project, carry out works strictly to the schedule and specification. Positive customer reviews is of the most importance in achieving our vision - to become one of the best loft conversion companies in London.

Great communication. We work very closely with our clients on everyday basis - keeping everybody informed is the key to a successful project completion. There is nothing worse than having to re-do something just because of poor communication. We avoid this by having a project scheduled and every stage specifics verified in detail by a client well in advance, so the work goes smoothly and without last minute changes.

Quality control. We employ our own loft conversion specialists to carry out every aspect of the project. Quality monitoring is carried out on a constant daily basis by a project coordinator, so no hidden shortcuts or surprises.

Accreditations, recommendations. And finally, we are a member of Federation of Master Builders - members are vetted and monitored for building standards. So, if you are about to start a loft extension, get in touch with Tailored Lofts - one of recommended loft conversion companies in London.

Draft plans. If you are about to build a house extension for your family you should really take your time and plan it, consult builders and architects - somebody once said "plan slowly and build fast".This is very true - late changes to the specification can be very costly, as some of the work already done may have to be destroyed and rebuilt again. Once you have your vision on paper (draft plans), now is the time to call builders for a quote, draw up the architectural plans.

Permissions, approvals, consents. Most of the standard extensions don't need planning permission - enough to supply full plans application to the Local Authority Building Control. On average it will take about 3 weeks to get the building control approval. At the same time (or better even much earlier) the party wall notice should be served to the neighbours. Legally they have two months to consent or dissent. This applies when the proposed works will be carried out on a boundary line or close to it - most often you will need it. In case of dissent there will be a bit more paperwork, and it will take longer to get to the building works starting date.

Building process. House extension project is a major work. Part of your home will be turned into a building site - although we do all we can to minimize the inconvenience, some dirt, dust and noise are inevitable. Also, you may consider having at least the ground floor renovated - extra work would not be charged as much as if you decide to do it separately, later.

Completion. Having all stages of the building project checked and approved by the Local Council inspector, we provide relevant certificates for electrics and gas works. The Local Authority then issues a Completion certificate.

Benefits. Adding an extension not only increases the floor area - you have the opportunity to reconfigure the layout of the ground floor - utilize the already available space in the best way: remove unnecessary partitions, create open plan large living space with a diner / kitchen area and bring more light to the ground floor. All this will simply give you more enjoyable time at home.

Now is the time to call us for a quote: 0800 612 5384, 079 3947 6993 We are looking forward to hear from you.
