With a significant amount of inconvenience, stress and expense, moving to a bigger property doesn’t hold the same appeal for everyone. Such moves become even more unappealing when you factor in moving out of a much-loved home and a desirable neighbourhood.

With their simple and versatile nature, these conversions suit properties of all kinds. As a result, they have become the UK’s most popular type of attic conversion. We create a structural extension that projects vertically up from the slope of the original roof. This results in a box-shaped structure which produces a room with straight walls, flat ceilings and impressive additional floor space.
As they involve modifying the hip (sloping side) of the original roof, our builders can only construct hip-to-gable designs on semi-detached, detached or end-of-terrace homes. By straightening out the hip with a new vertical wall (gable) to the same height as the existing roof ridge, we create a significant amount of additional living space beneath the new roofing structure.
These conversions typically appear at the rear of terraced homes, but we can also integrate them into other types of properties.
