Your loft conversion questions answered

Have a question about loft conversions?
We’re happy to help. Read our answers to the questions that our customers frequently ask us.

How long does a loft conversion take?

Depending on the size and type, most loft conversions take around 12 weeks.

 

Will I need to move out during the project?

No – it’s safe to carry on living inside the property. We work from the scaffolding before the stairs go in. Any disruption you experience will mainly come from noise.

 

Where will you place our new staircase?

We will be able to fit your staircase around your existing layout and will find an option to suit you. If possible, we will try to fit your new staircase over the existing staircase so that it fits seamlessly within your property.

 

Do I need planning permission for a loft conversion?

This depends on your location and type of property – all flats require planning, but if you live in a house that isn’t in a designated area, then permitted development is usually used and no planning is required. There are many other factors to take into account and one of our surveyors can advise further.

How much does a loft conversion cost?

Most cost between £30,000 and £50,000. This depends on the size and type – bigger and more complicated jobs take longer and therefore will cost more. See pricing information for further details.

 

What is a party wall agreement and do I need one for a loft conversion?

A party wall agreement (PWA) is required if you have a semi-detached or a terraced property and you are working within or near your neighbour’s boundary. We can advise when the surveyor visits.

 

Does a loft conversion add value to a home?

Yes – it will add from 20% to 30% upwards depending on the size, design and type.

 

How much head height do you need for a loft conversion?

If you have a clear head height of 2m then a loft conversion may be possible. Our surveyor will need to assess this to confirm.

Where will you place the new staircase

The opportunity to create more space

The client, Patrick Barnes, wanted a bedroom with dressing area, a bathroom, a rear terrace and a storage area to the end of the terrace

How we can achieve a conversion like this for your home

The client had already got planning permission.  The surveyor viewed the plans and existing loft space and came up with a detailed fixed price quotation.  The existing boiler also needed to be replaced with a system boiler and an unvented cylinder.  Touchstone Lofts were able to carry this out as part of the loft conversion project.

We re-designed the stairs and the internal layouts to improve and make the loft conversion work better, with added rooflights and windows.

To the front elevation we fitted four large Velux rooflights, three for the bedroom and one for the dressing room.

We also added the step-down into bathroom design from the bedroom.

The bathroom had a walk-in shower, toilet and basin.

Our architect produced detailed drawings for the customer to agree and the variations were sent to the planning department for planning approval. Planning permission was granted eight weeks later.

The structural engineer then prepared detailed structural plans for the construction team. Once the scaffolding was erected on the front and rear elevations, the works began.

A large bedroom with en-suite, and a dressing room was created.  Also, there was a walk on terrace which also had a storage area at the far end of the roof.

The terrace roof was re-enforced with steel to take the weight required for building regulations.

The dormer was clad in Spanish slate and the bedroom had a large hardwood glass Juliette Balcony.

The final result was exceptional, we had created a whole new floor of additional accommodation for the delighted customer.

Patrick Barnes, the client, recommended us to a number of local residents where we also undertook more loft conversion works.
