Here at Pro Lofts, we understand that a home is the core of any family, and is a special place of congregation happy times and great memories. This is why we believe developing the property you already own should be the first option, this way you can build on those great times and memories rather than leaving them behind.

One of the main reasons people consider having a loft conversion or an extension is to increase the size of living space and maybe add value to the property.

Around 80% of people that own their property have lived there for a significant period, and are very happy and well established, i.e. love the area, great neighbours, and the children are well settled at their local schools. Creating extra living space is a great idea, maybe a loft conversion with an extra bedroom or two, with an en-suite, or an extension Creating a kitchen diner with a set of bi-folding doors bringing the outside inside.

The cost of a project like this would be much lower than purchasing a larger property and taking the risk of losing all the home comforts that you already have in place.

Most people think that going through the planning process can be difficult but in fact around 75% of loft conversions and extensions require no planning permission at all and can be carried out by obtaining a “Certificate of Lawful development”. This is something our Pro Lofts architect will put in place for you. It’s as simple as the 4 steps you see here.
