Popular Loft Conversion Types For St Ives Properties

We recommend the right option for your roof shape and goals. Our loft conversion glossary explains each type clearly.

Dormer Conversion

Popular for St Ives terraces and semis. Adds meaningful headroom and floor area for a new bedroom, bathroom or home working space.

Velux Conversion

Uses roof windows to add light and usable space. Often the most affordable route and suits properties where the roofline cannot be altered.
