Quick Tips for Adding Value to Your Home - Tip Two

Tip Two - Add a Loft Conversion. Sarson Building Services - High Quality Builders in Chichester, Selsey and Arundel.

A typical loft conversion costs around £500-1,000/m² compared to around twice this for an extension. In terms of adding value, it is likely to be a very good investment providing it adds more accommodation than it takes away (remember you need to make room for a full staircase and this will take up existing space).

Natural light can be brought in via dormer windows or rooflights. A loft conversion does not normally require planning permission, as it uses existing volume however, creating dormer windows may need planning if they face a highway and so it is always worth checking with the planners. If you are unsure or need advice contact us at Sarson Building Services. We can provide a full costing and drawings to guide you through the initial decision making stages.
