A dormer is a structural extension that projects vertically from the slope of the existing roof. This creates a box shape with a flat roof. These types of conversions create extra floor space.

This conversion is ideal for adding a bathroom or a small study. It provides extra light and a bit of additional headroom without dramatically changing the look of your roof. This is a simple way to make your loft space more usable.

A full conversion extends across the entire rear of your roof. It offers the maximum amount of extra floor space and head height. This is a great option if you want to create a large master bedroom with an en-suite, or even two smaller bedrooms.

An L-shaped conversion involves two dormers that join together. One rests on the main roof of your property and the other on the rear extension. This type of loft conversion creates a huge amount of space, perfect for adding multiple rooms. It is often used on Victorian and Edwardian properties with rear home extensions.

This extension is built out from the back of your house. It creates a vertical wall and a flat ceiling inside, providing much more usable room than a simple roof light conversion.

Unlike a flat-roof one, a pitched dormer has its own pitched roof. It can be more aesthetically pleasing and in keeping with the style of some properties. It still provides valuable extra living space and can house one or more windows.

Hip to gable conversions are for houses with a hipped roof, where the roof inclines on three sides. We replace the side sloping roof with a vertical gable end wall. This creates a surprising amount of extra headroom and usable floor area, making the loft extension feel spacious.

A mansard conversion is usually built at the rear of the property. The roof has a flat top, with the back wall sloping inwards at a steep angle. This type of loft conversion maximises space and often receives favourable planning outcomes, though it can be more complex than other extensions in Thames Ditton.

A Velux conversion, also known as a roof light conversion, is the simplest and most cost-effective option. We add windows into the existing roof structure without altering the roofline. It is ideal for those who need a home office or playroom and have enough floor space and headroom already.

If you have a new build property, we can assess the structure of your roof and design a conversion company in Thames Ditton that works with modern building methods. This is a great way to add a personal touch and more space to your new home.
