Which approach might suit your roof?
These are briefing routes, not automatic recommendations. The existing roof and property still need assessment.
Rooflight
- What changes
- Works largely within the roof profile.
- Needs assessing
- Headroom, structure, light and stairs.
- Useful when
- The existing roof can support the intended room.
Dormer
- What changes
- Adds usable headroom and floor area to part of the roof.
- Needs assessing
- Roof form, scale, structure and external design.
- Useful when
- More standing space is central to the brief.
Hip-to-gable
- What changes
- Reworks a sloping end to increase internal roof volume.
- Needs assessing
- House type, roof form, structure and external impact.
- Useful when
- The existing hipped roof limits usable space.
Thinking about a loft bedroom or workspace?
Discuss your loft conversionWhat would you use the loft for?
The room you want helps reveal the practical questions that matter. Suitability still depends on the existing roof and professional assessment.
Agree what is included
A loft conversion is a coordinated structural and interior project. The exact route depends on roof form, available headroom, access and the intended room.
- 01Design and structure
Professional design and structural input establish what is suitable before roof and floor work is agreed.
- 02Roof, insulation and light
The roof form, dormer or rooflight approach, weathering and insulation are defined around the assessed design.
- 03Stairs and services
Stair position affects both floors. Heating, electrics, lighting and any bathroom services need to be planned together.
- 04Finish
Plastering, joinery, decoration and bathroom fittings should be stated clearly so the quotation reflects the finish expected.
Every inclusion depends on the agreed quotation. Ask for important products, professional fees and finishing work to be named.

Roof form and structure
The existing roof and the amount of structural change influence the construction required.
Stairs and access
Stair design, the space affected below and site access shape both layout and programme.
Bathroom and finish
Plumbing, fixtures, storage, joinery and decoration add specification choices beyond the core conversion.
Questions about loft conversions
Belmax takes enquiries in Rugby, Coventry, Leamington Spa and across Warwickshire.
Check your areaIs my loft suitable for conversion?
That cannot be confirmed from a website or photograph alone. Roof form, headroom, structure and stair options need to be assessed for the property.
Where would the stairs go?
The stair must work with the loft layout and the floor below. Existing room positions, headroom and regulations all affect the available options.
Can a bathroom be included?
A bathroom may be possible where layout, drainage, water, ventilation and structure allow. Include it in the first brief so it is considered from the outset.
Do I need permission?
Requirements depend on the property, location and proposal. Planning, permitted development and building-control duties should be checked for the specific address.
What affects the programme?
Design decisions, professional input, approvals where required, structural work, access, service changes and the chosen finish all affect timing.
What should I send first?
Send the postcode, photographs of the house and roof space if safely available, the room you want and any drawings already prepared.
Talk through your loft plans
Share your postcode, intended room, existing roof photographs and any drawings. Photographs help the discussion but cannot establish suitability.
Add a few details, then choose WhatsApp or email to send your enquiry.
