Loft Conversion Services in Cramlington
Four options to suit different properties and budgets — from an affordable Velux at £18k to a full mansard conversion. We'll tell you at the free survey which one makes sense for your house.
Dormer Loft Conversions
A rear dormer is the most popular choice for Cramlington's new-build semis and is what most people mean when they say "loft conversion". We extend the rear slope of your roof outward to create a full-height room — a proper bedroom, home office, or living space. Most Cramlington properties qualify for Permitted Development so there's no planning hassle, and the work is done in around 6–8 weeks.
- Full standing headroom and maximum usable floor space
- Works on most Cramlington new-build semis
- Usually no planning permission needed (Permitted Development)
- Creates a proper bedroom, home office, or playroom
- Adds value — typically 15–20% on Cramlington properties
Hip-to-Gable Loft Conversions
If you have a semi-detached property in Cramlington, there's a good chance it has a hipped roof — the sloping triangular section on the side. A hip-to-gable conversion replaces that slope with a vertical wall, opening up far more internal space than a standard dormer alone. Often combined with a rear dormer for the maximum result.
- Dramatically more internal space than a standard dormer
- Ideal for Cramlington semis and end-terraces
- Often combined with a rear dormer for maximum space
- Can comfortably fit a master bedroom and en-suite
- Good return on investment on NE23 properties
Velux / Rooflight Conversions
If your budget is tight or you already have decent headroom up there, a Velux conversion is the smart choice. We install quality roof windows into your existing roof structure without touching the roofline. It's the quickest, most affordable way to turn a dusty loft into a usable room. Great for a home office, guest room, or kids' space on a realistic budget.
- Most affordable conversion option — from £18,000
- Fastest build time — typically 3–4 weeks
- No change to external roofline
- Ideal if your loft already has reasonable headroom
- Fills the space with natural light
Mansard Loft Conversions
A mansard conversion replaces the roof slope with near-vertical walls and a flat roof — effectively adding an entire new floor. It's the biggest and most expensive option, and it does require full planning permission. But if you have a larger property in Heaton and want to maximise space, it's hard to beat. We manage the planning application as part of the job.
- Creates the maximum possible additional living space
- Full headroom across the entire floor area
- Can include Juliet balconies
- Best long-term investment for larger Heaton properties
- We handle planning permission from start to finish
