The current house you live in Barkingside may provide you with a lovely atmosphere to grow a family but can it offer you the space you need if you’ll have to add more members to the household? If the answer is no, then you might consider getting a loft conversion. With this type of home upgrade, you can utilize the previously unused area in your house and turn it into a beautiful, livable space. Getting a loft conversion will also mean extending upwards so you won’t have to worry about using up the area in your garden or driveway.
Apart from adding another room to your house in Barkingside, a loft conversion will also add value to your property. According to the Nationwide Building Society, a loft conversion can increase your property value by up to 25%. You’ll be able to enjoy this perk once you’ve decided to sell your house in the future. Another thing you’ll gain from a loft conversion is a decrease in your energy bills. By getting this type of home improvement, you’ll be able to own a well-lighted room that does need tons of lamps and lightbulbs because of the natural lighting that will come through the newly-placed skylight windows. Sleep warmly without increasing the use of the heating system in your house as the insulators that will be placed on the walls and floors can do the job for you.
Make the most out of your money and spend it on the right type of loft conversion. Many consider this type of home upgrade as a cheaper alternative than moving houses but you must know that it will still cost you a lot. The money that you will have to spend for a loft conversion depends on the type of loft conversion you’ll get, the materials that will be used, and the labor charge of the builders you will hire for the project.
Velux Loft Conversion - This is the most budget-friendly type you can get from £25,000 to £40,000 since the construction work it requires is minimal and the materials needed are also small in number.
Dormer Loft Conversion - As the construction involved for this type requires the building of a box-like structure from your existing roofline, expect that you’ll have to spend £40,000 to £65,000 just to complete it. With this amount, you’ll be owning a loft that can beautifully fit a bed and drawer cabinets.
Mansard Loft Conversion - This is the most expensive type of loft conversion, requiring you to allocate £70,000 to £95,000. You can expect that by spending this huge amount of money, you’ll be having a room that’s already similar to a new storey because of how massive the construction work it needs.
To start a loft conversion in your house in Barkingside, the building plan must pass all the standard construction procedures by the Building Control. This is an essential step in converting your loft because, without an approved building regulation certificate, your property may get devalued in the future. The team we have at Loft Conversions Company are already experts in the industry so you can expect that if you acquire our services, obtaining an approved building regulations permit will be swift and easy. We will include all the necessary points in the plan in order to get approval such as the structural strength of the floor, the fire escape route, and more.
You will not be asked to move out during the loft conversion since the construction work mainly happens at the top of your property, and if you hire the builders we have at Loft Conversions Company, rest assured that you’ll only receive minimal disruption during the course of the loft conversion.
