Homeowners considering their options for creating space for a growing family are being issued advice from a leading loft conversion company in Leytonstone.
Instead of putting properties on the market and facing the expense and hassle of estate agents, viewings, surveyors, solicitors, packing and unpacking; homeowners can extend upwards into their loft space for around just a quarter of the amount of money needed for a larger house.
And those concerned about planning permission may be worrying needlessly.
Managing Director Mark has this to say: “Some standard roofline conversions don’t need planning permission, so you won’t have to wait months for a decision before you can get started. Even some Dormer loft conversions, that change the shape of the roof to arrive at the space required, may not need it. This depends on whether it falls within your permitted development allowance. But, if planning permission is required, it is often easier to get than for other types of extension.”
Attic space covers the whole of a property and is normally generous enough for a bedroom and bathroom, ample storage or a children’s playroom. It can be used as a study or office or even a self contained flat, with living area, kitchen and bathroom.
Bespoke Lofts concludes: “Whatever type of rooms you select, a well designed and top quality loft conversion will add value to your property: up to 15% is the estimate of the Federation of Master Builders.” |
