Is Your Loft Suitable For Conversion?
Not all lofts are constructed the same. You should still find out if your loft is suitable for conversion. There are many factors in play when it comes to the design considerations of converting a loft. Here are several things for you to take note of:
Height of the ceiling
Accessibility
Water, electricity and other services
Permissions and regulations
Floor strength
Emergency exits
Checking the checkbox for all of the above is not going to be a simple task. If you are finding it difficult to leave them all checked at the same time, then you should look the pros to help you with redesigning and redecorating the areas that are going to be affected by the loft conversion.
Getting Permission
Make sure that you get the loft inspected beforehand. There is no point moving forward if it will be all for naught because you may not be able to get the necessary permits needed. There are several questions that will be asked as well. The most important things that inspectors will look at are the factors that are listed above.
Intended Use
Let’s say that you are given the go-ahead to convert your loft. The next big question now is what you are going to use it for. Do you intend to have an L-shaped extension where you can introduce as a new bedroom? Maybe the conversion was intended to become an area where you spend your time as you study your books or practice your sports.
The factors stated earlier are going to come into play. The roof structure plays an important role in maintaining the stability of the area since you are going to use the roof to protect it from certain damage. When you’ve decided what the roof will be, the height should give you enough space to do whatever it is that you need to do.
