Space for every Wigan home

Tailored attic room designs for every type of roofWhether you’re living in a classic red-brick terrace near the town centre or a modern semi in the suburbs, every roof is different. That’s why we don't do 'off-the-shelf' solutions. We’ll sit down with you to figure out exactly what fits your house and your budget. You might be wondering, "will it even fit my roof height?" Don't worry—we’ve seen it all and can usually find a way to make it work.Velux Loft Conversion: If you have plenty of headroom already, these are fantastic. We install high-quality rooflights into the existing slope, flooding the room with natural light without changing the roofline.Dormer Loft Conversion: Probably our most popular choice in Wigan. By building out vertically, we create a huge amount of extra floor space and full-height ceilings. It's often the difference between a cramped storage room and a proper master suite.Hip-to-Gable Loft: Common on semi-detached houses, this involves straightening a sloping 'hipped' roof into a vertical wall, giving you a much larger internal area.Mansard Conversions: The ultimate for space. This changes the whole slope of the roof, giving you almost an entire new storey.

All-in-one building service

Professional builders managing every stage of your projectThe biggest worry we hear from homeowners is the hassle of coordinating different trades. Who’s doing the plumbing? When is the electrician coming? With us, you don’t have to worry about any of that. We provide a complete 'all-in-one' solution. From the moment we install the first RSJ (Rolled Steel Joist) to support your new floor, right through to the second fix joinery and final lick of paint, our team handles it all.We’re a multi-skilled crew. Our professional builders take care of the structural timbers, while our specialists handle the plumbing for your new en-suite and the electrical wiring for those sleek spotlights. We pride ourselves on being tidy, punctual, and—most importantly—reliable. We know we’re working in your home, not just a building site, so we keep the disruption to a minimum while we work our magic.

Regulations made simple

Staying safe and legal with building regsLet’s be honest, the legal side of building can feel like a bit of a headache. Building Regs, fire safety, and Party Wall Agreements—it’s a lot to take in. That’s where our experience really counts. We ensure every loft conversion in Wigan we build is fully compliant with modern standards. This includes thermal efficiency (keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer) and essential egress points for fire safety.You might be asking, "Do I need planning permission?" In many cases, loft conversions fall under 'Permitted Development,' meaning you won't need full planning permission. However, if you’re in a conservation area or changing the roof significantly, you might. We’ll help guide you through the process so you can rest easy knowing everything is above board and signed off by the council.

Loft Conversion Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need planning permission for loft conversions Winsford?

+

Most loft conversions in Winsford and across Cheshire West and Chester fall under "Permitted Development." This means you often don't need full planning permission as long as you stay within certain size limits. However, if you live in a conservation area or want to build a very large dormer, you might need to apply. We always check this for you before any work starts.

What is the difference between a dormer loft conversion and a hip-to-gable conversion?

+

A dormer conversion sticks out from the slope of your roof, creating a box-like shape that gives you full head height and extra floor space. A hip-to-gable conversion is common on end-of-terrace or semi-detached houses in Winsford. It involves changing the sloping "hipped" side of your roof into a vertical wall (a gable), which significantly increases the internal room.

Can any house in Cheshire West and Chester have a roof conversion?

+

Most houses are suitable, but the main thing we look at is the head height. You generally need about 2.2 metres of space from the top of the ceiling joists to the bottom of the roof rafters. Even if your roof is a bit lower, we can often find solutions, such as thinning down the floor or using different types of structural engineering.

Will an extra bedroom really add value to my Winsford home?

+

Yes, usually quite a bit. Adding a proper bedroom and perhaps an en-suite via a loft conversion is one of the best ways to increase a property's value. It is often much cheaper than the cost of moving to a larger house in the same area.

How do you handle building regulations and structural engineering?

+

Every loft conversion we do must follow building regulations. This covers everything from fire safety and the strength of the new floor to the amount of insulation in the walls. We work with structural engineers to make sure the steel beams (RSJs) are the right size to support your new room safely.

How long does a Velux window installation take?

+

If you just want to add light to an existing attic space, a Velux window installation is very quick. We can usually have a window fitted and watertight in a single day. If it is part of a full attic conversion, it is done during the main build.

Can I stay in my house while the building work is happening?

+

For most loft conversions and home extensions, you can stay exactly where you are. We try to do as much work as possible from the outside using scaffolding. We only really need to come inside your main living area when it is time to fit the new staircase.

Is my loft suitable for a home office?

+

Lofts make brilliant home offices because they are tucked away from the noise of the rest of the house. Even a smaller space with a well-placed Velux window can provide a bright, quiet place to work. We can make sure you have plenty of power sockets and the right lighting to make it a practical workspace.
