Ascot Loft Conversions

BNS Lofts

Ascot

Ascot is an affluent town in Berkshire – roughly 25 miles west of London. It’s famous for its horse racing event held every June, with people from all over the world flocking to the town to enjoy the week-long meet. A small town that turns into its own mini city during race week, Ascot enjoys plenty of large detached properties where owners have plenty of freedom to make adjustments to their home.

Why should I get a loft conversion in Ascot? 

The biggest – and most obvious – reason for drafting in BNS to build you a loft conversion is more space. It doesn’t matter what you want to use your new space for we’ve seen it all. Gyms, studios, salons, bedrooms, bars and cinemas are just some of the ways customers have enjoyed their new space after getting a loft conversion done.

Don’t forget that you’ll also increase the resale value of your home if you decide to move on in the future. People looking to move to the Ascot area, especially families, will be keeping a lookout for a property with the most amount of usable space. This puts you in pole position to sell your home quickly and for more money than those without a loft conversion.

Types of loft conversions:

Depending on the type of property you have, you’ll have a few different options available when it comes to your loft conversion. Here’s a rundown of the different choices you have. If you’ve got any more questions, or just want a general chat about your loft conversion, click the button at the bottom of the page to get in touch.

Dormer –  This involves adding a ‘box shape’ to the top of your house, like the one in the picture below. Part of your existing roof is removed, and the ‘box shape’ is then added to give you more space and headroom.

Hip-to-gable – It’s where a sloping roof is remodelled into a vertical gable wall. In non-builder speak,  that means we transform a sloped roof, with cramped space inside, into a more open, spacious area by extending the ridge on your roof vertically.

Hip-to-gable and rear dormer loft – Hip to gable and rear dormer loft conversions are a mixture of the two: changing your sloping roof into a vertical one, as well as adding a box-like structure onto your roof to create space that wasn’t previously there for you to enjoy.

L-shaped dormer – The name gives it away! It’s an ‘L-shape’, which is created by connecting two dormers together at right angles. The larger dormer will sit on your main roof, whilst the smaller one is built on the rear roof.

Mansard – Think of a Mansard as an extension to the entire plane of the roof on your house. You can generally find them at the rear of your property, and they work by changing the ‘slope’ on your roof into an almost vertical angle (at least 72 degrees).

Skylight/Velux – In essence, you transform loft space that you already have available, by adding in Velux windows to give the room a whole new purpose.

Ascot loft conversion process

The constant back and forth, long delays and poor communication are the things that BNS lofts avoid at all costs. The aim of the game is to keep things as straightforward as possible, so you can get on with life whilst we get on with building a loft conversion you love.

The first step would be to arrange a quote, where we’d come and assess the job and float some ideas around. If you’re happy with the quote and want to take things forward, we’ll get to work on the design process for you. We’ll also get a Whatsapp group set up for you at the beginning of the project, so you’ve got quick and easy access to the people working in your home.

The design process is where we start to narrow down exactly how you want your loft conversion to turn out, and it’s where things start to become more concrete. Lean on us for guidance, direct us down to a T, or mix n’ match and do a bit of both! We’re to help, support and guide you. That way, we know your loft conversion will turn out even better than you’d hoped!

The rest of the process is handled by us. The planning, the building work and the project management are all controlled by the relevant team members. Their skill, experience and reputation mean that you know you’re in safe hands, and can sit back whilst we tackle the hard work.
