Now, if you are serious about converting your loft space into a comfortable living space or ensuring that your home will sell quickly on the market, you must always include proper loft insulation. Another useful fact is that if you are only doing minor reconstruction work (for example, converting your loft into storage space), you can probably add insulation yourself. However, only use this type of loft insulation if you do not intend to use the loft as a living space. In particular, by insulating the under-roof space, you will eliminate the potential heat supply from the lower floors. As previously stated, if you are only using the space to store your old items, this can be a good thing because it will prevent not only heat transfer but also cold from the loft traveling downstairs and affecting the inner temperature stability.
Nobody wants to think about a fire breaking out in their home, but fire safety is an important factor to consider before beginning your loft conversion project. You are altering potential fire escape routes by adding another level to your home. As a result, you will need to re-evaluate your existing fire safety precautions throughout your home, not just the loft area (especially if your home is already two storeys). There's a reason why you can't simply install a battery-powered smoke alarm in your loft rooms. If the alarm goes off on the ground floor, anyone in the loft conversion should be able to hear it in order to have the best chance of escaping. This system must be powered by the mains and have a battery backup power supply (in case a fire causes a power cut). The smoke detectors must be:
• found in corridors or landings ('circulation spaces')
• not more than three meters from a bedroom door
• 30cm from the closest light fixture or wall. Fire safety precautions differ depending on the type of house you live in:
• Houses and townhouses with two or more stories
• Bungalows, for example, are single-story homes.

A loft conversion will not only give you extra space but also enhance your living space on your property. A loft conversion price depends on many factors such as type of the conversion, type of the roof you have, type of the lighting you want in the loft, the type of windows required, the size of the project, fixtures and fittings, nature of the exterior, client's personal requirements and the site's location.
