The types of Loft Conversions that we work in -
Think your loft is too small to do anything with? In Edmonton, that's rarely true it usually just needs a dormer. We extend the rear roof slope outward with a flat-roofed box structure. That one change gives you a full-height ceiling, proper windows, and a room that works. It's the most common conversion we do in Edmonton, and it suits the area's housing stock well particularly the rows of semi-detached and terraced homes built between the wars. The front of your house stays exactly as it is. The change happens at the back, and the difference inside is significant. Best for: Inter-war semis and terraces, homes needing a bedroom or office, and Edmonton properties where low head height is the main obstacle.
Here's a question worth asking before you write off your loft does your roof slope on the sides? If it does, you've got a hipped roof. And that sloping section is eating into your usable loft space more than you'd think. A hip-to-gable conversion replaces that slope with a straight vertical wall, reclaiming all that lost width in one go. Most Edmonton homeowners add a rear dormer at the same time. Together, the two give you a loft that's wide, tall, and genuinely liveable not just technically converted. Best suited for: End-of-terrace and semi-detached homes in Edmonton where a hipped roof is quietly limiting what the loft can become.
Not every conversion needs scaffolding for weeks and structural engineers on site. Sometimes the loft is already more usable than it looks. A Velux conversion works with what's already there. We fit roof windows into the existing slope, reinforce the floor, upgrade the insulation, and make sure the whole thing meets building regulations. The roof structure doesn't change at all. It's faster, cheaper, and less disruptive than any other type. For Edmonton homes with a decent amount of existing head height, it's often the smartest place to start. Best for: Edmonton properties with good existing loft height, homeowners working within a budget, and anyone who wants a finished room without a major build.
If your Edmonton home has a rear extension and plenty do you've got an opportunity that a standard dormer can't fully take advantage of. An L-shaped conversion builds on that. One dormer goes on the main roof, another sits above the rear extension, and we join the two together. The loft you end up with is wide, flexible, and big enough to split into multiple rooms. Two bedrooms and a bathroom is a realistic outcome. For growing families in Edmonton who've run out of room but don't want to uproot, this conversion changes everything. Best for: Edmonton homes with rear extensions, families needing multiple new rooms, and properties where one dormer alone won't cut it.
A mansard conversion is the most ambitious route and it gives you the most to show for it. We take the rear slope of the roof and rebuild it at a near-vertical angle, adding a flat section on top. The loft stops feeling like an attic and starts feeling like a proper floor. Full ceiling height throughout, more floor space than any other conversion type, and a finish that looks like it was always part of the house. Planning permission is usually required from Enfield Council. But for larger Edmonton properties, the investment makes sense especially when the alternative is moving. Best for: Larger homes, period properties across Edmonton, and homeowners who want to extract every square foot the roof has to offer.
Edmonton has more bungalows than people realise. And most of them are sitting on a roof full of untapped potential. A bungalow's roof tends to cover the entire footprint of the property which means there's often a surprising amount of space up there. Converting it adds real rooms upstairs, frees up the ground floor, and makes the whole home feel bigger and more flexible. It's a conversion that tends to exceed expectations. People are often taken aback by how much space they actually had, and just never used. Best for: Single-storey Edmonton homes where the ground floor has maxed out, and owners who want to add lasting value to their property without moving.

A party wall agreement is also known as PWA is required if you own semi-detached or terraced property. In simple words, if you are working within or near your neighbor’s boundary then you will need a party wall agreement in place. Click here for more info.
