Loft Conversions in Bexley, Sidcup & Surrounding Areas | LD&C Homes

A loft conversion is one of the most effective ways to add a genuine bedroom or living space to your home without touching the garden. LD&C Homes has been carrying out loft conversions across Bexley, Sidcup and the surrounding areas for over 30 years, from straightforward Velux conversions through to full dormer and hip-to-gable builds.

 

What type of loft conversion suits your property?

Unlike a garage conversion, a loft conversion is a structural project. It involves opening up the roof space, installing steelwork, creating a proper staircase and finishing the space to a habitable standard. The right conversion depends on your roof type, head height and what you want the space to do.

A Velux conversion is the simplest option and works where head height already allows. No changes to the roofline, just roof lights, insulation and a staircase.

A dormer conversion extends out from the roof to create full-height walls and significantly more usable floor space.
The most popular choice for adding a proper bedroom.

A hip-to-gable conversion restructures the end of the roof entirely and is common on semi-detached properties in this area. Often combined with a rear dormer for maximum space.

 

Do you need planning permission?

Many loft conversions fall under permitted development. Dormers to the rear of the property often do not require planning permission. Hip-to-gable conversions usually do. We will confirm exactly what applies to your property before any work begins.

 

What the job involves

We handle the full structural build from steelwork and carpentry through to insulation, plastering, electrics and staircase installation. A loft conversion is a more involved project than a garage conversion and typically takes six to ten weeks depending on the type and specification. We keep disruption to the rest of your home to a minimum throughout.

 

No deposit required

We do not ask for a deposit. You pay in stages as each part of the work is completed. No money upfront, no risk to you.
