Krótki opis

Hey and thankyou for looking at my short profile, my real name is Fynn but everybody calls me Jaggers, I'm a loft conversions specialist working in Skegness, UK. My favorite pastimes are crocheting, metal detecting and dancing. I grew up in in Wigan and studied at University of Strathclyde. I've got a brother Paul and a sister Eleni, I have a pet horse called Jethro. I own a loft conversions agency and assist property owners to remodel their dwellings so they haven't got to sell up and relocate.

These days housing prices are continuously rocketing and not everyone can actually find the money to move house when things get cramped. The actual cost moving house should be added onto the asking price of the new house plus all of the inevitable extras when working out the overall expenditure involved. When your family is outgrowing your home and you cannot afford to buy anything bigger there are other options.

You could choose to extend your property to make extra room but this can be quite costly and may depend upon whether or not you can get the necessary planning permission. If you happen to have a decent garage that you aren't presently using, you could think about having a garage conversion. The preferred answer which should increase the value of your current home while not adding to the property footprint, is to convert your loft.

Over the last few years, for the reasons given previously, loft conversions have gotten more popular than ever. Before heading along this avenue, you must check that your home is in actual fact suitable for a loft conversion. Properties that have got trussed roofs aren't generally suitable. Older properties which were constructed before the seventies are typically great for loft conversions since they were constructed with solid timbers and there tended to be lots of head space.

To make sure your specific loft space is acceptable, you will have to get in touch with a builder to give it a look. If everything is okay to press on with your conversion, you should ask for a quotation from the builder. Don't merely go along with the first quotation you obtain, get a few estimates before deciding on your builder. When picking the ideal tradesman for the job you need to use your instincts and not just go for the cheaper quotation.

The majority of loft conversions carried out in don't require planning permission, so there's a good chance that yours won't either. Your local planning department is where you should go to check if you do need planning permission.

Don't imagine that a loft conversion is going to be cheap, as it's quite an expensive thing to do. It is unlikely that many householders will have that type of money just lying around, and so it may be that they need to get a loan or a second mortgage. As a general guideline you might assume that a loft conversion will cost you around as much as a fair sized brickwork extension and the chances are that you will gain more room with an attic conversion whilst not increasing your property's overall footprint.

The style and design of your actual dwelling will determine what sort of conversion you end up with. There are various different types of loft conversions available in including: hip-to-gable conversions, roof lift conversions, velux loft conversions, mansard loft conversions, roof light loft conversions, loft pods and dormer loft conversions. Your builder or loft specialist can tell you what type is actually most suitable for your home.

One of the most popular types of loft conversion at present is the dormer type, a design that provides decent affordability, yet yields the maximum additional space. This is a well loved option with property owners as it's both functional and eye-catching and provides almost everything which is likely to be needed. With this form it could even be possible to put in a small balcony, which means that you're creating added outdoor space as well. There are distinct sorts of dormer conversions and among these are flat roof dormers, shed dormers, Velux dormers and gabled dormers. Chat with an expert to find out which would be the most suitable for your specific house.

One one of the foremost names in roof windows, Velux, have been in business for over sixty years and they can be depended on to provide a loft window which is both prime quality and dependable. These are made to fit flush with the gradient of the roof and therefore don't alter the shape of the roof structure, nor do they ordinarily require permission plus they are comparatively inexpensive to put in. They let in a decent quantity of light and actually could even require blinds during the warm months. If your loft has a good amount of height, a Velux windows could be the best option for you, particularly if you are on a restricted budget.

The length of time that it should take to complete a standard loft conversion depends on several things including the availability of materials, the trustworthiness of the constructors, the amount of forward planning that's done, the climatic conditions and the design of conversion. As an approximate guide it ought to take around 4 to 5 weeks to carry out a rear dormer loft conversion on a terraced house and about five to six weeks to do a hip to gable dormer conversion on a semi-detached home.

There are numerous uses to which the loft conversion can be put, as soon as it's finished. Some use it as a den or playroom, a new bathroom or an additional bedroom. Nevertheless there's a lot of purposes to which a good conversion can be put, constrained only by your imagination!
