never wrong Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Unless we have a mind reader on the forum I THINK THIS IS REALLY A IMPOSSIBLE POST to answer to many variables, give some idea of what you want and sizes etc. and then someone may be able to answer your questions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macdee Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 You would get more value from an extra bedroom. Loftconversion maybe £20,000 conservatory £5,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 The loft conversion will certainly cost more, but may well add more value to the house. Have you confirmed that a loft conversion is actually possible though. Modern(ish) buildings have the roofing done differently to old ones. Anything built from the 60's onwards probably won't be suitable, and a modern W roof construction is definitely impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mm93fm Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Cyclone - http://www.restyleloft.co.uk/rooftype.html - "definitely impossible" is a bit strong isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Guess I fell into the 'most people' group then Due to this most people think there's no way their loft can be converted. With excellent planning and the use of steel beams designed by our structural engineer, we can remove the W shaped bracings and struts to create the open space required to convert your loft. I can see the $$$ signs ringing up when they start talking about replacing the trusses with steel beams designed by a structural engineer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Ryan* Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I have a 3 bed house, semi detatched.. I was wondering how much it would be for someone to basically convert my loft into a room? Surely no 20,000.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely no 20,000.? £20k is not out of the ordinary. Don't forget planning permission and you will need buildings regulations approval for the work.

covghost Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I would personally go for the loft conversion, but i know this company who do both, seriously - google Plumbline Installations and check out their page, they're sheffield based too which is handy, they do ALL aspects to a really high standard. Quality stuff, Thanks Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
