Dormer Loft Conversions
What is a Dormer Loft Conversion?
A dormer loft conversion involves extending the existing roof vertically to create more headroom and usable space. Dormers are a versatile option for adding bedrooms, home offices and bathrooms. They integrate seamlessly into most property styles blending functionality with aesthetics.
Do You Need Planning Permission for a Dormer Loft Conversion?
In many cases dormer conversions fall under permitted development rights meaning no planning permission is required. However, if your home is in a conservation area or has specific restrictions we’ll handle the planning process to ensure a smooth experience.

Dormer Loft Design Ideas
Dormer loft conversions are an excellent way to add both space and character to your home. The extended headroom and natural light offered by dormers make them ideal for creating functional, stylish living areas tailored to your needs.
Maximise Natural Light
Install large windows or French doors in the dormer to flood the space with light and create a feeling of openness.
Incorporate Built-In Storage
Take advantage of the angles and eaves to add bespoke cupboards or shelves keeping the room functional and tidy.
Create a Cosy Window Seat
Use the alcove under the dormer window for a built-in bench or reading nook with hidden storage underneath.
These are just a few design ideas. Dormer lofts are versatile spaces that blend style and functionality allowing you to reimagine your home’s potential. Our team can discuss your needs and help craft the perfect plan.
