The most common types are:
Hip to Gable – Extends the sloping side of a roof into a vertical wall
Dormer – Adds a box-shaped structure to create more headroom
Mansard – A full-width roof alteration, often at the rear
Velux / Rooflight – Adds roof windows without changing the roof structure
Costs vary based on size, design, and structural complexity:
Velux conversions: from £25,000+
Dormer conversions: from £35,000–£45,000+
Hip to Gable conversions: from £38,000–£55,000+
Mansard conversions: from £50,000+

Roof structure (traditional vs trussed)
Headroom and floor area
Planning and access feasibility
We offer free surveys to determine suitability.
