Bungalow
More than 1.000 lofts converted since 1989
Bungalows offer great loft conversion potential. They have large roof spaces with plenty of possibilities – we can often create two or three bedrooms and a bathroom in the space above a bungalow. This gives you an abundance of new living space, and if you decide to sell up in future, it should significantly increase the value of your home. We’ve completed many successful loft conversion projects in bungalows – could yours be next?

Rooms such as en suites that require additional headroom can be added easily
What types of loft conversion are suitable for bungalows?
There are four main types of loft conversion that can be suitable for bungalows: a dormer loft conversion, a hip to gable loft conversion a Loft conversion or a mansard loft conversion. We can advise you on the best type for your bungalow, depending on its existing structure.

Hip to gable loft conversions
Bungalows that are semi-detached will often have a hipped roof that slopes at the side. This can be turned into a gable end and transformed into a spacious loft conversion with excellent head height.
The average cost of a hip to gable loft conversion is £40,000-£50,000.
Dormer loft conversions
Dormers create an attractive box-like structure that protrudes from the roof, with walls that are at 90° to the floor. This offers very good head height, allowing you to easily have an en suite bathroom in your loft space. You can have a dormer in various positions in your roof and can add more if you’d like a larger room inside.
The average cost of a dormer loft conversion is £35,000-£55,000.
Rooflight loft conversions
Loft conversions don’t require structural alterations, they use the space that’s already inside your roof. They’re suitable for bungalows that already have good head height, so we will work with what you’ve got. A rooflight loft conversion window is added into the roof to make sure your new room is light and bright.
Loft conversions are considerably cheaper, with prices starting from around £24,000.
Mansard loft conversions
Mansard loft conversions can add what feels like a whole new floor to your bungalow. They have a 72° wall that offers excellent head height inside and lends an elegant look to the outside. You can achieve a beautiful, aesthetically-focused bungalow loft conversion when you add a mansard dormer.
Mansard loft conversion prices start at around £48,000.
