A Velux loft conversion maintains the original roofline, utilising Velux windows to introduce natural light into the newly created space. We exclusively install official Velux windows, as they offer superior quality and come with their own guarantee.
Benefits of a velux loft conversion
A Velux conversion, also known as a roof light loft conversion, offers a minimally invasive, budget-friendly, and straightforward approach to expanding your living space. It thrives in areas with ample height between the loft floor and the existing ridge. Compared to alternative conversion methods, Velux loft conversions entail significantly less construction work, resulting in minimal disruption.
Exterior finish options
Since the external roof line remains unchanged, there’s no need to contemplate finishes. The sole visual alteration to the roof is the addition of Velux windows, which can be seamlessly integrated with your existing tiles or slates, ensuring they blend seamlessly with the roof’s original appearance.
Will I need planning permission?
If your property benefits from permitted development rights, you can proceed with a Velux conversion under a Certificate of Lawfulness. This certificate allows work to begin without waiting for formal approval, provided it adheres to council guidelines.
However, without permitted development rights, planning permission is required, and work cannot commence until approval is granted. Upon validation of the planning application by the council, a decision is typically issued within eight weeks.
At Alan Loft Conversions, we determine the necessary permissions and handle the application process on your behalf to ensure the correct approvals are obtained.
