Fantastic Completed Dormer Loft Conversion with a Juliet Balcony!

This beautifully designed and decorated Rear Dormer Loft Conversion has recently been completed in Shifnal, Shropshire.

Buckley Loft Conversions had the pleasure of working with the clients, designing and constructing their dream home. They both had exacting ideas of what they wished to achieve and their clarity of vision and input was certainly very helpful and constructive.  We are extremely glad that they are so happy and would like to extend our sincere thanks for their contribution to this article with their photographs. 

DESIGN & PLANNING PROCESS 

Buckley Loft Conversions surveyor visited this client on various occasions to discuss their expectations and ideas of what they wanted to achieve with their loft conversion, in their beautiful Staffordshire family home. The loft conversion itself consisted of dormer windows, Juliet Balcony and Velux roof lights which all fell under the  “permitted development rights” confirming with a lawful development certificate from the local authority. This achieved the light and spacious bedroom & landing they wanted and avoided the need to go through the planning process. Once everything was decided and agreed, it was then passed to our in house architect who then went on to create the front elevation, the rear elevation and the floor plans. Once completed the proposed drawings were sent to the local authority, to confirm that planning permission was not needed, once this has been agreed we could then go on to build this loft with building regulations approval only.

CONSTRUCTION PROCESS 

The Client’s loft had already been cleared in preparation for the loft conversion to start. The carpenters then came in to the loft to start the insulation process, removing beams and replacing with stud work to separate the bedroom and bathroom. The Velux loft windows &  dormers, and Juliet balcony were constructed into the client’s existing roof creating bright & spacious rooms. The dormer was constructed using some of the existing roof tiles & new tiles.  Once the structure of the loft conversion was in place it then started being prepared for the installation of the bespoke staircase to match the existing. Below are some photographs of the loft before & during the construction.

CONVERSION COMPLETE 

Once the construction team had finished building the loft conversion, the joiners have fitted their bespoke staircase, the plasterers have been, the electricians have fitted all of their sockets and fittings & the plumber had fitted all of their new bathroom, the clients were then able to go into their conversion and start planning their decorating, carpet colors & bedroom furniture etc. Once completed the clients were absolutely over the moon and sent over some photos of their new conversion, as you can see from the photographs below this is truly a great loft conversion in Shifnal, Staffordshire creating that family home they wanted.
