Dormer Loft Conversions

Dormer loft conversions are a excellent choice for lofts with limited height.  It will physically extend the existing roof, adding both floor space and height. Internally, dormer conversions provide a more conventional room shape, with a horizontal ceiling and vertical walls, rather than the sloping wall and ceilings often associated with a Velux conversion.

There are various styles of dormer windows, all offering a different external appearance:

Flat Roof Dormer

 

These type of loft conversions add the most internal space, but alter the roof line, which means they are not always as aesthetically pleasing as other loft conversion styles.

Hipped Roof Dormer

French Doors Dormer
