It is gradually becoming a norm for homeowners to have their loft converted into some usable space rather than letting it lay waste. And as usual, knowing what it will cost to have this upgrade is important while making plans.
If you are looking at a loft conversion, you will pay £26,000 extra. If it is a big flat roof dormer, an additional £9,000 to £12,000 will go into the project. For a hip to gable conversion, plan an additional average payment of between £6,000 to £8,000. Love the luxury and need an ensuite bathroom or shower room in the conversion? Plan for an extra £4,000. Bear in mind that these are average costs and include 20 per cent VAT.
