Lofts are the perfect opportunity to create new rooms out of previously unused space.
Converting lofts comes with its own set of unique challenges. Here at Innovate, we have plenty of experience turning even the most awkward spaces into stunning, habitable rooms. We come recommended by the City of London for offering quality loft conversions and roofing services so you can be sure your loft is in the best hands.
Loft conversions come in many shapes and forms, which makes each loft conversation unique. As experienced builders and designers, we use a range of methods and techniques to ensure the maximum amount of space without compromising the building’s integrity.
Due to the roof’s proximity, loft conversations require specific planning to ensure safety and the building structure are maintained. Our team is certified to provide health and safety advice when planning a loft conversion.
We are highly experienced at converting loft and attic spaces into habitable, beautiful rooms. We can transform unused, wasted space into a real asset, effectively giving you more space to live and increasing the value of your property.

Types of loft conversions
Dormer Loft Conversion
A dormer is a window-featured extension of the roof to provide more space and headroom within the loft area. Dormers are the most common type of conversion because they exploit the available space to its fullest. Dormer loft extensions can be uniform, L-shaped, or bespoke based on your roof. A dormer loft conversion enhances the aesthetics of a building, contributing to a significant increase in value – by as much as 30% in some cases and increasing the chances of attracting a buyer.
Velux Loft Conversion
This is the roof window conversion that provides a significant amount of light into the loft space, thus converting a redundant area into a usable space for all the family. It is a very economical way of achieving complete loft transformation since there is no need to restructure the roof itself. Perhaps more attractively, planning permission to achieve this kind of loft conversion is not required. This is a fantastic type of home extension for those who have a lower budget but would like to gain additional space in the house.
Mansard Loft Conversion
A mansard is a style of roof with two slopes – the lower being steeper than the upper and having dormer windows set into it. This is an effective way of maximising available space in a loft conversion by adding additional ceiling height. The installation is complex and can be expensive as an entire section roof must be replaced. As a consequence, planning permission for this type of loft conversion is always required. This kind of conversion is primarily popular in older properties that already have a mansard roof in situ and is ready to be optimised in this way.
