Types of Loft Conversions We Offer in Harrow

At our company, we pride ourselves on providing a diverse range of loft conversion options to suit our Harrow clients’ unique needs and preferences. Here are the loft conversion types we offer:

Rear Dormer Loft Conversion

Extends the rear roof slope to create additional headroom and floor space. Ideal for maximising space in houses with limited roof space. The most popular choice for Harrow terrace and semi-detached homes.

Hip to Gable Loft Conversion

Ideal for semi-detached and end-of-terrace properties in Harrow where a hipped roof limits available space. This conversion transforms the sloping hip end into a vertical gable wall, significantly increasing headroom and usable floor area. Often combined with a rear dormer for maximum space gain.

Velux / Rooflight Loft Conversion

Velux loft conversions are an excellent option for those looking to introduce more natural light into their attic. Velux windows within the existing roofline provide an open and airy atmosphere. They are the most cost-effective option and do not alter the roofline — ideal for conservation areas.

L-Shaped Dormer Loft Conversion

An L-shaped dormer combines a rear dormer with a side return and is particularly effective for Victorian and Edwardian terraces — common throughout Harrow. This conversion creates a large, open-plan loft space with scope for multiple rooms, en suite bathrooms, and walk-in wardrobes.

Mansard Loft Conversion

A Mansard loft conversion involves altering the entire roof structure to create a new living space with steeply sloping sides and a flat roof. This type offers maximum floor space and versatility, and is popular on period properties across Harrow.

Gable End Loft Conversion

A gable loft conversion involves building a gable wall extension on the side of the property, resulting in increased living space and enhanced aesthetics.

How Much Does a Loft Conversion Cost in Harrow?

A loft conversion in Harrow typically costs between £40,000 and £80,000, depending on the type of conversion, the size of your property, and the specification of finishes. As a rough guide:

Velux / rooflight conversions start from £25,000–£35,000. Rear dormer conversions range from £40,000–£55,000. Hip to gable and L-shaped dormers range from £55,000–£75,000. Mansard conversions — the most extensive structural alteration — typically cost £70,000–£90,000+.

All Ionesi Development quotes are fixed-price and provided in writing before work begins. We do not invoice beyond the agreed amount without your prior written approval. Payment is staged to mirror construction milestones, so you only pay for completed work.

Do You Need Planning Permission for a Loft Conversion in Harrow?

Most loft conversions in the London Borough of Harrow fall under Permitted Development Rights, meaning no formal planning application is required. However, you will need a Lawful Development Certificate to confirm that your conversion complies with permitted development rules — we handle this application on your behalf.

Planning permission IS required if: your property is in a conservation area or Article 4 Direction zone; the conversion involves a mansard or front-facing dormer visible from a public road; or the proposed extension exceeds the permitted volume limits (50m³ for detached, 40m³ for semi-detached and terraced). Our team will advise you on your specific property before any design work is commissioned.

If your property shares a wall with a neighbour, a Party Wall Agreement (or Party Wall Award) will also be required under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996. We can provide guidance on this process and recommend a qualified party wall surveyor where needed.

Most conversions fall under Permitted Development Rights and do not require full planning permission. However, a Lawful Development Certificate is required in all cases. Conservation area properties and mansard conversions may require full planning. We advise on your specific situation during the free survey.

Typically 10–14 weeks from build start, depending on the size and type of conversion. The design and planning stage adds a further 6–10 weeks before construction begins.

No. The majority of structural work is carried out from scaffolding, outside your property. You can continue to live in your home throughout. The main disruption is noise during working hours.

If your property is semi-detached or terraced, a Party Wall Notice must be served on affected neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996. Your neighbours can either consent or appoint a surveyor to draft a Party Wall Award. We can guide you through this process.

A well-executed loft conversion typically adds 15%–25% to a property’s value in the London Borough of Harrow. This can represent £75,000–£150,000 on a typical Harrow semi-detached property.

The right type depends on your roof structure and budget. We offer Velux, Rear Dormer, Hip to Gable, L-Shaped Dormer, Gable End, and Mansard conversions. Our free survey will identify which options are feasible for your specific Harrow property.
