Hip To Gable Loft Conversion | Master Bedroom with Ensuite & Fitted Wardrobes | Stanmore

Harrow and its neighbouring areas are mostly populated by 1930s housing stock, and the typical loft conversion style for these when semi-detached is a Hip to Gable. This style is ideal to maximise space-gaining potential. Although this type of loft conversion is common, each one presents a unique opportunity to introduce creativity and design elements that stand out. Sometimes the right colour choices and creative soft furnishings can truly elevate the final outcome and provide that wow factor.

In this case, the client chose to furnish their new master bedroom with colours that coordinated with the bedding, turning out to be a winning combination. The outcome was a thoughtfully designed master bedroom and ensuite bathroom with fitted wardrobes, creating a balanced space that met the client’s desired specifications.

Loft Conversion Types

Abbey Partnership provides Wembley homeowners with the opportunity for a personalised loft conversion that truly reflects their individual tastes. We specialise in transforming roof spaces into refined, functional rooms, optimising every inch for elegance and utility.

Dormer Loft Conversion

Dormer loft conversions boost homes by extending liveable spaces, featuring windows or doors with Juliet balconies to amplify the new environment with natural light. For roofs with pitches less than 2.1m, lowering the ceiling height of the floor below offers a practical solution. While seemingly challenging, this effective approach achieves spectacular outcomes.

L-Shape Loft Conversion

L-Shape loft conversions establish a sizeable, flexible space by linking two dormer structures. It’s a great way to increase the area available. Typically, homeowners who choose this type of conversion create multiple rooms, maximising the potential in their Wembley home.

Hip to Gable Loft Conversion

Wembley homes can benefit greatly from Hip to Gable loft conversions. This method transforms the sloping roof into a vertical gable wall, thereby creating additional functional space and increased headroom. Dormers with windows are usually integrated to invite natural light, enhancing the new loft’s appeal and functionality.

Mansard Loft Conversion

This style of loft conversion fits perfectly with period properties that have London roofs (butterfly roofs), enhancing space and head height significantly. It requires a full alteration of the roof to create a flat surface with a gentle slope and 70-degree elevations. The outcome is a substantially new living area and effectively adds a whole new level if built front and rear.

Velux Loft Conversion

Velux loft conversions are a popular choice to bring natural light into confined loft spaces. This method involves no alterations to the roof’s original shape, making it perfect for lofts that already have substantial room and height, resulting in a vibrant and usable space.

FAQs

How long does a loft conversion take?
Loft conversions can take up to 10 – 15 weeks to complete.

What do I need to do next?
Arrange for a FREE no-obligation quote to determine the most efficient way of carrying out your Wembley loft conversion.

Will we need to move out while the work is undertaken?
Loft conversions are less disruptive than most other residential developments. Much of the work is undertaken by accessing the property through the roof via a scaffold.

How are payments staged?
At Abbey Partnership, we prioritise your financial peace of mind with our balanced stage payment programme. This approach ensures you only pay for work as it is completed. You can rest assured the final payment is only due when all agreed work meets your expectations.

Can neighbours prevent a loft conversion going ahead?
No, they can only insist on a full party wall award being drafted by surveyors (client to meet all costs).

Do I need a party wall agreement?
A party wall agreement (that can be downloaded or provided by our company) will be required as a minimum. Some neighbours may insist on a party wall surveyor drafting an award.

If we have a bathroom in our new loft will our existing boiler need to change?
Most heating systems can be adapted, but in some cases, especially where there are combination boilers, the pressure can fluctuate and we may consider other solutions. For example, it may be advantageous to use a Megaflow (pressurised system), a water storage cylinder that can form part of a central heating system.

Do I need planning permission for my loft conversion?
Only in certain circumstances. Since the new changes to the planning law in 2008, most loft conversions do not require planning permission. However, there are certain property categories where planning permission may be required.

Should I employ an architect?
Loft conversion specialists usually have their own architects. Partnering with a company that provides a one-stop shop approach has many benefits. Not only does it streamline communication, but it also ensures a cohesive vision throughout your Wembley loft conversion project. This integrated approach means a simplified process and faster project completion, giving you a smoother, more efficient loft conversion experience.
