loft and garage conversions

build services

 

Loft and garage conversions are an excellent way of extending your home economically. They can often be undertaken without having to make a Planning Application, since they can fall under permitted development (as outlined by the Government). This can speed up the build process considerably and reduce costs since the fabric of the build already exists.

 

The difficulties associated with loft or garage conversions lie with the space being provided. With extensions you can increase or decrease the size of your extension to suit your design needs. With loft or garage conversions, this is much harder to achieve since the spacial delivery is already set by the existing construction of your building. This can reduce the flexibility of your design.

 

Further problems can be found in providing access to either lofts or garages. The position of staircases, or new door ways can greatly impact the comfort of your existing property. Existing rooms may have to be changed to create new accesses or doors. This is why it is essential that all options are explored before embarking on these types of home improvement.

 

Buildservices.co.uk will discuss all the aspects of your conversion ensuring that you are fully aware of the benefits that they provide. If further areas of your house need to be upgraded then we will take you through this so you are fully aware of the implications. Loft or garage conversions may initially appear appealing but can be found to be wanting upon closer scrutiny. We will ensure that all conversions are properly designed and all cost implications are brought to your attention before proceeding to the build phase.
