Hip to Gable Loft Conversions
What is a Hip to Gable Loft Conversion?
A hip to gable loft conversion is a popular option for properties with a sloping or "hipped" roof. This type of conversion extends the sloping side of the roof outwards to create a vertical "gable" wall adding significant headroom and usable floor space. Ideal for semi-detached or detached homes, this design maximises the loft area making it suitable for new bedrooms, offices and general living spaces.
How Much Does a Hip to Gable Loft Conversion Cost?
The cost of a hip to gable loft conversion varies depending on factors such as the size of your home, the materials used and the complexity of the project. For an accurate estimate tailored to your property we recommend arranging a site visit so we can provide a detailed quote based on your requirements.
Do You Need Planning Permission for a Hip to Gable Loft Conversion?
In many cases a hip to gable loft conversion falls under permitted development rights and does not require planning permission. However, if your property is in a conservation area or involves significant changes planning permission may be required. We’ll guide you through this process to ensure everything complies with local regulations.
