How can someone tell if their loft is suitable for conversion?
The available head height over the staircase and landings. This is the main deciding factor. There needs to be at least 2.2m between the top of the floor joists and the bottom of the ridge timber. This is so that there is at least 2m of headroom once new floors and beams etc have been fitted. You should also consider the headroom throughout the majority of the room. This is what is deemed a comfortable height.
Floor space. Is the floor area large enough to make a useable room? This may also affect which type of loft conversion you opt for.
The pitch of the roof. The steeper the pitch of your roof, the easier it is to convert your home, as there will be more head room and therefore more useable space.
The type of roof – Your roof will have either traditional cut rafters which form the roof shape outline and enable you to form a space with minimal structural alterations, or may have pre-formed trusses which make conversions more complicated and expensive.
Any other obstacles. Many older properties have water tanks and chimney stacks which may either need to be removed or factored into any design for your conversion.
