See how our loft conversions in Bromley have created more usable space while overcoming structural challenges and working around existing layouts.
BromleyFlat-back dormer
The owners wanted a bedroom, bathroom and Juliet balcony, but the original drawings left too little room for the stairs. We redesigned the structure and recovered valuable space around the chimney.
BromleyL-shaped dormer
After moving their bathroom upstairs, the owners had lost a bedroom. An L-shaped dormer restored that space with a bedroom, walk-in wardrobe and en suite, while keeping their existing boiler accessible.
BromleyL-shaped dormer (shell stage)
Extensive damage meant this home needed more than an L-shaped dormer. We reinstated first-floor rooms, reworked the kitchen and bathroom areas, and handed over a weather-tight loft shell for the owners to finish.
From generous roof spaces to compact family layouts, our loft conversions in Orpington show how thoughtful design can make more room for everyday life.
OrpingtonRear dormer
An unusually wide roof offered the chance for an open, contemporary bedroom suite. A large rear dormer, engineered around long steel beams, provided a four-metre glazed opening, walk-in wardrobe and bathroom.
OrpingtonBespoke loft conversion
The homeowners needed an extra bedroom and bathroom while running a childminding business from home. The family gained a bedroom, bathroom and Juliet balcony while we protected access and repaired unsafe staircase treads.
OrpingtonHip-to-gable
The family wanted two separate children's bedrooms and a bathroom within a modest roof space. A hip-to-gable conversion increased usable width, with rooms carefully planned around beds, stairs and available headroom.
Our loft conversions in Plumstead show how careful design can help with conservation requirements, limited headroom and changing family needs.
PlumsteadPitched dormers
The homeowner wanted a quiet office in a conservation area, where roof changes needed careful planning. Two small pitched dormers and conservation-style rooflights were approved to make the space light and practical.
PlumsteadL-shaped dormer
The owners needed two bedrooms and a bathroom, despite limited headroom. By rethinking the new floor structure, we created more usable height and made the L-shaped layout work.
PlumsteadRear, L-shaped and hip-to-gable
Neighbour recommendations helped grow a group of 12 loft conversions, each shaped around a different household. The projects include rear dormers, L-shaped and hip-to-gable designs, adding bedrooms, bathrooms and home offices.
Our Catford projects show how loft conversions can create extra bedrooms, improve everyday storage and work alongside wider home improvements.
CatfordLoft conversion + refurbishment
The owners wanted a loft conversion alongside a wider home refurbishment, all managed by the same team. We also tackled hidden damp and drainage problems, explaining the options before carrying out the agreed repairs.
CatfordL-shaped dormer
The owners wanted two bedrooms and a bathroom with oak flooring and a freestanding bath. We redesigned the dormer's window weathering so bespoke German-made windows could open fully while rainwater drained clear.
CatfordL-shaped dormers
A recommendation led to three L-shaped dormer conversions for neighbouring households. Each gained two bedrooms and a bathroom, with thoughtful touches including landing storage and soft lighting for night-time trips.
