Pitched Dormer Conversion
What is a Pitched Dormer Loft Conversion?
​
A pitched dormer loft conversion, or pitched roof dormer, is a popular choice when there is sufficient roof height to accommodate it. Known for its aesthetic appeal, this design adds unique character to the space through its interior angles and shape.
​
Advantages of a Pitched Dormer Extension
​
This newly converted space can serve as a bedroom, bathroom, or even a bright office space. With the option to add Velux windows on the front roof opposite the dormer windows, the area is designed to maximize natural light.
​
Exterior Finish Options
​
The exterior of a pitched dormer can be finished in tile, slate, render, or cladding. If choosing tile or slate, we select materials on-site to ensure a close match with the existing roof. For rendered finishes, our skilled plasterers can create custom designs to complement your current finish. All external details, like fascias, soffits, gutters, and windows, will be matched to the original, giving the dormer conversion a seamless, integrated appearance.

Do You Need Planning Permission?
​
If permitted development rights apply to your property, a Certificate of Lawfulness allows you to proceed without waiting for application approval, provided you meet council guidelines. If not, planning permission is required, and work may only begin once it’s granted. We’ll determine the necessary permissions and handle all application submissions on your behalf to ensure proper approval.
