Design & Build Loft Conversions in Richmond London

We are sure that after looking into loft conversions, there are a number of factors that decide whether your Richmond loft is suitable for conversion:

• The Head Height
  Upon a site visit by the architect, we take a measurement from the top of the ceiling joist to the bottom of the ridge timber. As a rule, this measurement should be an absolute minimum of 2.2m.
• Roof Pitch Angle
  The higher the pitch angle of the roof, the more useable floor area your loft conversion can have.  40° or more is considered suitable for a conversion.
• Obstructions
  Fixed obstacles such as chimney breasts, ventilation pipes and water tanks need to be taken into account before deciding on any loft conversion projects.
• Structural age of the Building
  It is commonly known, pre 1960 lofts generally have a more conversion friendly structure than houses built post 1960s.
• End Shape
  The structural shape of the ends of the loft this can either be Gable or Hipped.  The roof structure will affect the complexity of floor space calculations.
