Loft conversions for extra space
March 4, 2010 by Editor · Leave a Comment
Most householders dream of having extra space in their homes for either storage purposes or for additional living space.
Many homeowners however simply cannot afford to move to a larger house and so undertaking extension work to their current residence may be the best and only option for creating that added space.
Although the addition of a sun room or conservatory can be an option for some householders, often there is not the additional land to construct these successfully. In these cases, the most practical alternative is the creation of useable attic conversions or a full loft conversion. In London for instance where land is at a premium, a loft conversion may be the only option for creating extra space.
Loft conversions in London especially, can be the most affordable way to create a larger living space. These rooms can be transformed into an extra bedroom, an added bathroom or a work space or study for those who work from home. These rooms can be added at a relatively low cost though they can add immensely to the total value of the house and create an added attraction to any potential buyer if the house is sold in the future.
With changes in planning law, it is now possible to undertake these loft conversions in London and the rest of the country without having to apply to the local authority for planning permission. This makes the loft conversion process much quicker and easier and reduces the amount of bureaucracy and form-filling that needs to be dealt with.
At Landmark Lofts we can help ensure that any conversions are undertaken with recycling and green issues at the forefront of everything that we do. Utilising the latest environmentally friendly materials and green policies we can guarantee that all work undertaken is of the highest of standards.
