The most important thing to know when considering Brightlingsea loft conversion is that you will need to replace your current windows with new ones.
Typically, it is ideal that your roof pitch is slightly angled and is not pre-trussed. Pre-trussed roofs have been popularized in the 1960s and this style of roof is prevalent in some homes today in Brightlingsea. Homes with trussed roofs will be more challenging to work on as they will need more inspections and structural changes, but it will not be impossible. Another factor would be having a chimney on your roof. Having this built as part of your home’s charm can prove to be a challenge when getting a Loft Conversion. You will have to decide if you want your chimney to be covered up or removed to make more space for your loft, or if you would prefer to keep it and just have our Loft Conversions Company team work around the space available without compromising your chimney.
Warm VS Cool Light
The two most basic choices for lighting begin with understanding the purpose your loft will serve. Warm light is typically more orange or yellow-toned for rest and relaxation. This is perfect to install in your loft if it will be used as a lounge or rest area, like a home theater or a game room with arcade games and a pool table. Cool light, on the other hand, works better to stimulate the brain for productivity. This is great if you’ll convert your loft into an office or gym.
LED Lighting
Other options as well are LED Lighting. Aside from using traditional light bulbs, LED Lights are also an option that can be installed in your loft. Some LED Lights are more energy-efficient and have smart innovative features.
