Your dream home is just a conversion away!
In London, where space is at a premium, a loft conversion is one of the smartest ways to expand your living area without the need for a full-scale extension or relocation. Whether you're looking to add a new bedroom, a home office, or a luxurious en-suite master, converting your attic into a functional space can dramatically improve both your lifestyle and your property's layout.
At London Core Construction, we specialise in delivering custom loft conversion solutions that blend seamlessly with your existing home. Our team of architectural designers, structural engineers, and experienced builders work together to ensure your loft space is transformed efficiently, safely, and beautifully.
From semi-detached to terraced homes and period properties across Greater London, we understand how to unlock the hidden value in your roof space with tailored conversions that meet your personal needs and local planning regulations.
Every home is different, and so are the roof structures and client goals. That’s why we offer a full range of loft conversion types to suit various property styles and budgets. Here's a breakdown of the most popular options we provide:
The most common choice in London, a dormer adds a vertical extension to your sloped roof, creating additional headroom and floor space. Ideal for bedrooms, bathrooms, or offices.
Typically built at the rear of the property, a mansard conversion involves raising the party wall and altering the roof structure to create a nearly vertical slope. These are popular in central London and conservation areas.
Perfect for end-of-terrace or semi-detached homes, this type extends the sloping side roof (hip) out to form a vertical gable wall. It adds significant usable space and can often be combined with a rear dormer for maximum effect.
This is the least invasive and most cost-effective option. Velux rooflight conversions keep the existing roof shape and add skylights to bring in natural light—ideal for newer homes with adequate roof height.
Often used in Victorian or Edwardian terraced homes, this type links two dormers to form an L-shape, offering substantial additional space that’s ideal for large bedrooms, kitchens, or bathrooms.
Each loft conversion is designed with both practicality and aesthetic appeal in mind, ensuring that your new space enhances both form and function.
Before starting a project, it’s crucial to assess whether your home is suitable for a loft conversion. Fortunately, many London properties—especially terraced, semi-detached, and detached homes—can accommodate a conversion with minimal disruption.
Here’s what we typically evaluate:
1. Head height:
You’ll need a minimum internal height of 2.2 meters from the floor to the ridge beam for a traditional conversion. If your roof is lower, we can explore options like lowering the ceiling below or altering the roof structure.
2. Roof structure:
Older properties with traditional cut timber roofs are generally easier to convert than homes with modern trussed roofs, but both can be accommodated with structural adjustments.
3. Property type and age:
London’s housing stock includes a wide variety of builds. We’ve worked on everything from Georgian townhouses to post-war semis and know how to adapt to each one’s specific requirements.
4. Planning and permitted development:
Most loft conversions fall under permitted development rights, but properties in conservation areas, flats, or those with previous extensions may require full planning permission. We handle all aspects of this process on your behalf.
5. Access and staircase design:
Safe, code-compliant access is essential. We’ll integrate a staircase layout that maximises space without compromising your existing rooms.
We offer a free home assessment to determine the feasibility of your loft conversion and provide honest guidance based on structural integrity, planning constraints, and your personal goals.
A professionally built loft conversion is one of the most cost-effective ways to increase your home’s market value in London. On average, a well-executed loft conversion can add between 15% to 25% to your property’s resale value, depending on the location and type of conversion.
Here’s why:
With rising property prices and limited room to expand at ground level, a loft conversion is not just an upgrade—it’s an investment. We ensure that every pound you spend translates into real, long-term value.
At London Core Construction, we never compromise on structural integrity or materials. Every beam, joist, and insulation panel used in your loft conversion meets or exceeds UK building regulations and is sourced from trusted suppliers known for durability and sustainability.
Key features of our build process include:
We take pride in using only high-performance materials that stand the test of time. Our team pays close attention to finish quality—from floor levelling to precise joinery—ensuring your new loft feels like a seamless extension of your home, not an afterthought.
London homes come with unique design challenges, from narrow terraced layouts to listed building restrictions. That’s why our design process is fully bespoke—no templates, no shortcuts. We begin every project by understanding your vision and how your new loft space will fit into your daily life.
Our in-house architectural designers create plans that respect both the original character of your home and the technical requirements of your borough’s planning office. Whether you're in Camden, Islington, or a leafy part of South London, we tailor every design to maximise light, ventilation, and space—all while ensuring structural safety and building regulation compliance.
Our planning team manages all applications, liaises with local authorities, and ensures that every detail—from fire safety to insulation and soundproofing—is meticulously planned and approved.
We also integrate energy-efficient features where possible, including eco insulation, LED lighting, and smart ventilation systems, helping you reduce your carbon footprint while enjoying modern comfort.
We handle every stage of your project, ensuring smooth coordination and timely completion.
With years of experience across London, we understand local regulations, styles, and challenges.
Your space, your vision—our team creates tailored plans that fit your needs and lifestyle.
We use premium materials and expert craftsmanship to deliver lasting, high-quality results.
Our creative team brings fresh, functional design ideas to every project we take on.
We prioritise sustainable materials and energy-efficient methods for a smarter build.
Every project begins with a free, no-obligation consultation. We visit your property to assess the loft space, discuss your goals, and determine feasibility based on your roof structure, available headroom, and planning regulations. You'll receive honest advice, design inspiration, and an outline of costs and timelines so you know exactly what to expect before moving forward.
Once you’re ready to proceed, our in-house design team develops a fully bespoke loft conversion plan tailored to your lifestyle and property type. We take care of architectural drawings, structural calculations, and handle all planning permissions or permitted development applications. We also consult with local planning authorities to ensure your design complies with building regulations and borough-specific rules.
Before any building work begins, we finalise your schedule of works, assign your dedicated project manager, and prepare the site to minimise disruption to your daily life. This includes scaffolding installation, access routes, material delivery logistics, and neighbour notifications if required. We’ll walk you through what to expect during the build phase, so there are no surprises along the way.
Our experienced construction team gets to work transforming your attic into a stunning, fully functional space. We follow strict health and safety protocols, maintain a clean site, and use premium materials throughout. From structural work and insulation to electricals, plumbing, and finishing touches, your project manager will keep you informed at every milestone with regular updates and quality checks.
Once construction is complete, we carry out a comprehensive quality inspection and snagging process to ensure every detail meets our high standards—and yours. You’ll receive a final walkthrough, building control certification, and all necessary documentation. Only when you’re 100% satisfied do we consider the project complete. Your new loft will be ready to enjoy from day one.
