What kind of time frame can I expect?

We expect most projects to be completed within 6 to 8 weeks, but certain variables can affect this time frame. A larger, more intensive project may require more time than one of the simpler loft conversion designs. Once we understand your desired outcome, we will be able to provide a realistic time frame. London Dream Lofts has a proud reputation of honouring time agreements.

What are the benefits of loft conversion?

Loft conversion comes with an array of benefits, both for while you live in the house, as well as later down the line when you decide to sell. These benefits could include:

  • Added space
  • Increased property value
  • Increased influx of light and air
  • Avoiding an expensive move
  • Gaining new rooms
  • Gaining new views
  • Potential to expand the family
  • Gaining space to rent out and gain revenue

Does a loft conversion always require planning permission?
No. Planning permission is not always essential, but in the circumstances where it is required, our loft conversion experts can provide advice on how to attain it.
Does a loft conversion require a party wall agreement?
Only when your loft conversion infringes on a shared wall between yourself and a neighbour. While your neighbours cannot deny you the right to renovate on your property, they can affect how and when the construction work is carried out.
Does a loft conversion require approval from building regulation authorities?
Yes. This is always required. It can be obtained by submitting your application paperwork to the Building Regulations authorities. It is advised to wait for a response before beginning your project.
Does a loft conversion require a safety exit?
There is a legal requirement for all loft conversions in East London, and throughout the UK, to have an accessible safety exit. While this may seem inconvenient, our loft conversion specialists are experts at incorporating a safety exit that meets legal requirements into your pre-existing design. This means that you can still enjoy the vision you had in mind. One way we accomplish this is to structure the staircase in such a way that it counts as a viable safety exit leading from the loft conversion to the ground floor.
