WHAT ARE THE FACTORS TO CONSIDER IN A LOFT CONVERSION?

The first and most important one is the available headroom in your attic. You need to check the measurement of your ceiling joist and ridge timber, the top and bottom must measure a minimum of 2.2 meters for you to have a comfortable loft. The second one is the pitch angle of your roof, if it’s 40 degrees or more then you’re guaranteed a more useable roof space. Third, is the age of the structure of your house, a more conversion-friendly structure would be those built in the pre-1960s because of the roof framing it features. The next thing you should check is the shape of the ends of the loft that will be converted which will affect the complexity and floor space calculations. Lastly, you must confirm that if your house has fixed obstacles such as chimneys or ventilation pipes, they won’t cause huge interference in the construction.

By successfully having this document in hand, you can be confident that your property won’t get devalued once loft conversion is completed.
