LOFT TYPES
L-Shape Dormer Loft Conversion
What is a L-Shaper Dormer?
An L-Shape Dormer is created by combining a rear dormer with a side dormer, forming an "L" shape that maximises floor area—especially for Victorian and Edwardian homes.
Key Benefits
- ✅ Ideal for larger loft spaces & period homes
✅ Maximises floor area & storage
✅ Great for master suites & multiple rooms
✅ Increases natural light with multiple windows
How much does an L-Shaper Dormer Cost?
The cost of a L-shape loft conversion typically ranges between £45,000 – £75,000, depending on the size of the project, materials used, and any additional features such as en-suite bathrooms or bespoke storage. An L-shaped dormer is complex than a standard dormer but provides significant space gain.

7. Do I Need Planning Permission?
In most cases, L-Shaped Dormer Loft Conversions do not require planning permission as they fall under permitted development rights. However, if your property is in a conservation area, a listed building, or the conversion exceeds permitted size limits, an application may be required. Our team will manage all planning approvals and building regulations to ensure a smooth, stress-free process
