A dormer loft conversion is typically a boxed-shaped structure which is added onto a pitched roof. Due to the nature of how they sit on the roof, they create walls that sit at a 90-degree angle to the floor with the main benefit of this being headspace and floorspace giving you plenty of options when it comes to deciding which type of room to convert your loft into.
Different types of Dormer Loft Conversions In Dulwich
When it comes to dormer loft conversions there are 4 different types of loft conversions that you can consider when determining which to choose from for your loft conversion. Here are the four most common:
Flat Roof Dormer Loft Conversion
Flat-roof dormers are pretty self-explanatory they are dormers that sit horizontally with a flat roof. They are simple structures that can be added to either the front or rear of your loft. Again a viable option is to expand the usable space in a loft and provides a lot of natural light due to the increased head height of a flat roof dormer and the use of dormer windows.
Shed Dormer
Shed dormers are similar to flat roof dormers however the roof slopes down at a slight angle. Usually suited to homes with a gable roof, shed dormers may be constructed with different materials than a flat roof dormer.
Gable Fronted Dormer Loft Conversion (Dog-House Dormer)
Also known as the dog-house dormer the gable-fronted dormer loft conversion is a more complex procedure of loft conversion. It consists of a gable wall extension which to meet the current ridge line is built upwards. This will also contain and new sloping roof towards the gable end of your loft conversion.
L-Shaped Dormer
L-shaped dormers contain two parts which form an L shape and consist of two loft conversion builds joined together to form an ‘l-shape’. Theses loft conversions are usually only suited towards Victorian properties with a back addition towards the kitchen. They are the best way to extend these types of properties and provide plenty of space to work with.
