Velux Loft Conversions

Transform your loft into a bright and functional living space with a Velux conversion. This simple yet effective loft conversion method enhances your home without altering the existing roof structure, making it a cost-effective and minimally disruptive way to add extra space.

What Is a Velux Loft Conversion?

A Velux loft conversion involves installing high-quality Velux windows into your existing roof slope, allowing natural light to flood the space. Unlike dormer conversions, no structural changes are made to the roof, preserving the external appearance of your home while creating a practical and inviting interior.

This type of conversion is ideal for turning an unused attic into a stylish bedroom, a peaceful home office, or a cosy living area without the need for major construction work.

Benefits of a Velux Loft Conversion

  1. Maximised Natural Light
    Velux windows are designed to bring in an abundance of daylight, creating a bright and airy space that feels welcoming and open.
  2. Cost-Effective Solution
    Since there are no significant structural changes, a Velux conversion is one of the most budget-friendly loft conversion options available.
  3. Quick and Non-Disruptive Installation
    With no need for extensive construction work, the installation process is faster and causes minimal disruption to your home.
  4. Improved Ventilation
    Velux windows can be easily opened to allow fresh air to circulate, helping to regulate temperature and improve air quality.
  5. Preserved Exterior Appearance
    As the roofline remains unchanged, a Velux conversion is ideal for homes in conservation areas or where planning restrictions apply.

Planning Permission and Building Regulations

In most cases, a Velux loft conversion falls under permitted development rights, meaning planning permission is not required. However, exceptions may apply if:

  • Your property is in a conservation area
  • It is a listed building
  • The proposed changes exceed permitted development limits

Although planning permission is usually not needed, building regulations approval is required to ensure the conversion meets structural and safety standards. This covers elements such as insulation, fire safety, and stair access.

How Much Does a Velux Loft Conversion Cost?

The cost of a Velux loft conversion typically ranges between £25,000 and £40,000, depending on factors such as the size of the space, the number of windows, and interior finishes.
