LOFT CONVERSION BRIGHTON, HOVE AND SUSSEX
TAKE YOUR LOFT TO NEW HEIGHTS
Creating a loft conversion is one of the easiest way to add more space to your home. GB Construction (Brighton) Ltd can transform your dark and dusty attic or a small loft into a bright and comfortable space, while at the same time increasing the value of your house by as much as 20%.
Every loft conversion is different, and every customer has different needs, preferences and circumstances. Whether our brief is to convert an attic space in a town-centre terrace into an artist’s studio filled with natural light or create an en-suite guest bedroom in a suburban bungalow, we will help you make the best of your space. Whether you are aiming for a high-end interior with luxury finishing touches or a well-built simplicity, we will approach your project individually and pick the best solutions for your circumstances.
You will find some loft conversions in Brighton and Hove that we have made for our customers in our gallery and on the Check-a-trade website. GB Construction (Brighton) Ltd will help you maximise the space you would like to convert, whether it is a one-bedroom loft conversion, en-suite bathroom or more complex layout. We can retain some old parts of the loft, such as the brickwork, the chimney or the old timber structures by renovating them to create unique, beautiful features in your new space. If you need a hand with designing your loft, our architects are here to help with architectural design.
TYPES OF LOFT CONVERSIONS
Velux (Eaves) loft conversion
Great for a larger loft with enough head height. It is built within the existing roof space, by adding Velux windows, without any external alterations. This way you can achieve a bright additional living space in your home in a simple and fairly cheap way. It is also the best loft conversion if you live in a listed property area of Brighton and Hove, as it doesn’t change the building’s external structure.
Dormer loft conversion
This type of loft conversion will create more space than the Velux one. It is usually used for lofts with two or more extra rooms, including bathrooms. A dormer projects out from the sloping roof surface to create more standing room inside. A dormer can have a flat, gabled or hipped roof. This kind of loft conversion can be as wide as the roof and is often chosen by our customers from the Brighton and Hove area. Often doesn’t require a planning permission.
Hip to gable loft conversion
In this kind of loft conversion, you extend the roof by replacing the hip end with a gable end. It helps you to maximise the space of your loft and gives plenty of head height space, but it also involves significant external alterations, so the customer has to make sure that they have all planning permissions needed by the local council.
A loft conversion not only gives you additional living space, but is also adds value to your house in case you would like to sell it one day. GB Construction (Brighton) Ltd will ensure that your new loft conversion is made to the highest standard and with meticulous attention to detail, so you can make the most of it.
We offer an end-to-end service, beginning with a no-obligation site visit, to any support you might need during the planning and design process for your loft conversion. Our architects are ready to develop your ideas into an architectural plan while the structural engineer will carry out the calculations necessary to make sure that everything is done safely, and according to building standards.
When the project is completed, a Building Inspector will sing off the project, ensuring that your home is a safe place to live. We have been cooperating with Brighton and Hove Building Inspectors from the very beginning of GB Construction LTD, always open to their advice while always doing our very best to meet our customers’ needs.
Although we highly recommend our architects and structural engineers, there is no obligation to use their services. We are happy to cooperate with your own professionals or work to architectural plans you already have.
Once all the plans are agreed on and accepted, GB Construction Ltd will carry out all the building work. We are “all-trades” contractors and will comprehensively manage all aspects of the project, including any required electrical work and plumbing. Our certified electricians and Gas Safe registered engineers will ensure that the vital services are installed safely and to the highest professional standard.
