VELUX
LOFT CONVERSION

If you want a loft conversion without any of the structural work, then a Velux loft conversion is the option for you. The roof space is not added to, so it is the perfect choice for a quick, cost-effective conversion. By adding in Velux windows we ensure your loft room is bright and airy, giving the impression of more space and a higher ceiling. This type of conversion will not generally require planning permission, meaning a fast, hassle-free process.

What are Velux
loft extensions?

Unlike other types of loft conversions, a Velux conversion does not alter the space you have; it simply repurposes it to make it into a livable, useable space. Your new room will sit entirely within the existing roof void, with the addition of Velux windows above to provide light and ventilation. We choose to use Velux windows because, with our industry experience, we have found them to be the best all-round option on the market. They come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes and add a stunning finish, achieving your desired appearance.

Velux Loft Conversion FAQs


1. How Much Does a Velux Loft Conversion Cost?

The cost will depend on the property, the size and condition of the loft, the work required and your chosen specification. Visit our pricing page to view our current starting prices, or arrange a free feasibility survey for an accurate, no-obligation quotation.

2. Is My Loft Suitable for a Velux Conversion?

A Velux conversion may be suitable if your loft already has sufficient height and usable floor space. Our team can assess the size, shape and structure of your roof during a free feasibility survey and advise you on the best option.

3. What Is the Difference Between a Velux Conversion and a Dormer?

A Velux conversion retains the existing shape of the roof, whereas a dormer projects outwards to create additional headroom and floor space. If your loft already has sufficient usable space, a Velux conversion may require less extensive building work.

4. Will I Need Planning Permission for a Velux Loft Conversion?

Many Velux conversions can be completed under permitted development rights, provided the work meets the relevant conditions. Different rules may apply to flats, listed buildings, conservation areas and properties where permitted development rights have been restricted. We can assess your project and advise whether planning permission is likely to be required.

5. Does a Velux Loft Conversion Require Building Regulations Approval?

Yes. Building Regulations approval is required when converting a loft into a habitable room. This covers areas such as structural stability, insulation, fire safety, ventilation and safe access. Our team can manage these requirements as part of your project.

6. What Can a Velux Loft Conversion Be Used For?

Depending on the space available and Building Regulations requirements, a Velux conversion could create a bedroom, home office, playroom, dressing room or another flexible living area.
