Whether you are looking to add an extra guest bedroom, a stunning master suite, a quiet new home office or even a teenage den, there are so many ways a loft conversion can be utilised that it usually isn't hard to find a solution that fits.
A well-designed loft conversion can also add value to your property - plus they are the most cost-effective means of adding space, particularly when compared with extending out or adding a new basement.
Despite their many benefits, there is plenty to consider before embarking on a loft conversion project. Some projects not only require the existing space to be converted, but it might also be necessary to extend the roof in order to increase the available headroom and space.
LOFT BATHROOM - good idea?
Many people choose to include a bathroom within their loft conversion - and it is really something of a must if you plan on locating a bedroom up there.
Loft conversion bathrooms also require careful planning due to the presence of sloping eaves and the restricted head height beneath them. Tips for loft bathroom:
- Place a shower where there is full headroom
- Wall-mounted sanitaryware helps make a small bathroom appear more spacious.
- Place a shower where there is full headroom
- A bath can be tucked under the loft eaves
- A wetroom can be a space-efficient option, but needs full tanking

LOFT STAIRCASE
Where is the best place for a loft conversion staircase?
The ideal location for a staircase to land is in line with the roof ridge: this will make best use of the available height above the staircase.
In practice, the actual position of your loft conversion stairs will depend upon the layout of the floor below, and where necessary the available height can be achieved using dormer windows or adding a rooflight above the staircase or, if appropriate, converting a hip roof end to a gable.

Quality 👌🏼
Loving the guy with the chainsaw trimming the ends off, with his mate underneath holding onto the offcut while he's cutting and with no edge protection. I can see how you get these things built so quickly now. Hope your employees appreciate your commitment to health and safety in the workplace.

I wouldn't consider what he's doing to be anymore dangerous than just simply working in the trade itself. A good worker knows how to support the offcut material without binding the cutters blade.

So many inspectors & HSE inspectors watching this video - done many dormers I think lads have done well !
For all the people bitching about the chain saw don’t knock it until you tried it . The idea of reaching over with a skillsaw works but sucks. The ability to stand up and reach with a chain saw is way better and probably safer.
Great video. I blinked and missed you fitting the ridge steel which would be interesting. How do you choose Ply vs OSB

@@johncoppock3823 wax face of osb is more water resistant then ply over time, but the cut edge of osb swells up as soon as it gets wet, so for a roof that might be exposed for a week or two max ply is probably better, especially for any roof that isnt felt, where you want a totally flat surface

The scale of these builds and the skill used is very impressive but do you ever get any aggro from the neighbours unhappy about the works?
how come you didnt show puting in the main steel beam ?

I thought there always some kind of steel beam need to be used for building regulations. Quite surprised by how two initial wooden posts took all that weight.

Hi, there is a steel ridge beam as designed by structural engineer. Head beam above dormer windows is supported by 3x double posts during construction.
good work but for the love of God where's your fall protection guys?
How did you finish the ridge tiles very disappointed not to see that. Also did you mean 50mm fittings? What size was the roof joists? Thanks

Looks like you went above existing roof height(ok if client knows) and missed cross ventilation between flat roof rafters ( long term issue ,,condensation’’ ) but video nice cut

Can't x-ventilate when they're tight to the dormer next door, usually would use mushrooms, but that's probably why they've sat on the ridge

I’m thinking they Should have raised the ceiling joist and then nailed the untreated sleepers on the bottom of the joist instead of the top. Any moisture or sweating will happen between the plywood and the joist at the top that way they treated part would be the only part wet .The plywood decking dose look superior in Quality nice job .

Very skilled, a miracle you can train people every week to replace the ones falling off, fall from heights are the #1 killer of workers, cigarettes never killed so many, shame full to broadcast such sh*t
