What a loft conversion specialist can help you with
Loft conversion specialists help you turn your loft into a living space, transforming it into any room you might want, from a bedroom and ensuite bathroom, to a new kitchen or home library. In particular, they focus on:
- Loft conversions
- Loft refurbishments
- Installing metal and wooden loft staircases
- Installing Velux / skylight windows

How much does it cost to convert a loft?
How much you’ll end up spending on your loft conversion depends on a few things, including:

- How big your loft is
- Where you live in the UK
There are several loft conversion types, including Velux conversions, dormer loft conversions, mansard loft conversions, hip to gable loft conversions and bungalow conversions.

Do I need planning permission to convert my loft?
You can convert your loft without applying for planning permission, as long as:
- Your home isn’t a building containing one or more flats
- Your home hasn’t already had additional storeys added to it
- Your home wasn’t converted into a house (from a previous, non-residential use)
Keep in mind that different rules apply if you live in a listed building. For the full list of building regulations and rules, visit the Planning Portal website, or read our planning permission guide.
Questions to ask before you hire a loft conversion specialist
Whether you’re looking to convert your bungalow or want a dormer loft conversion, a local loft conversion company can help you create a brand new living space in your home. Here are a few questions to ask before you hire:
Do you have public liability insurance and what does this cover?
While it’s not a requirement for them to have it, it’s a good idea for your loft conversion specialists to have public liability insurance to cover you and them against any accidental damage done to your home or personal injuries. Make sure to always ask your tradespeople what insurance they have before you hire them. This will guarantee protection for both parties and ensure your loft specialists are legally compliant.
How many years of experience do you have?
Knowing how many years of experience your loft conversion specialist has will allow you to pick a tradesperson who you are confident has enough experience to carry out a high quality job. When you’re finding a tradesperson through Rated People, head over to their profile to check out the pictures on their work gallery and their ratings and reviews.
Do you use subcontractors? If so, are they licensed and insured?
Your loft conversion specialist is likely to employ subcontractors. It’s a good idea to confirm the qualifications and insurance coverage of everyone who will be working on your project, whether they’re subcontractors or fully employed by your project manager. Anyone working with gas needs to be registered with Gas Safe, and anyone installing electrics (in England and Wales) needs to be Part P certified to be able to self-certify their work. These tradespeople will have valid documentation that you can ask to check.
What is your estimated timeline for completing the project?
Knowing what the estimated timeline for completing the project is will help you set realistic expectations about how long your renovation will take to complete.
How much will the job cost?
Asking how much the job will cost will help you budget for your project and will ensure price transparency before you hire. How much you’ll end up spending depends on the scope of your project, and where you live in the UK, so make sure you add plenty of details when you post a job.
