Rear Dormer type Conversion

A rear dormer type conversion is the most common type of Loft Conversion. Just Like a Velux conversion, Velux windows can be inserted into the front roof slope, to the rear of the property a Large dormer is added, creating a large area of flat ceiling to the inside of your new loft conversion. This conversion is most common with terrace, end of terrace and semi detached houses.

To undertake this type of conversion an existing head height in the loft space must be at least 2250mm from the existing ceiling joists to the underside of the ridge beam.
