Loft Conversions Fire Regulations – All You Need To Know

Posted by Stuart

There are many aspects to consider when planning your loft conversion. You should pay a lot of attention to fire safety in your new conversion. Taking the time to deal carefully with this issue could mean the difference between a conversion that meets fire regulations and a conversion that simply fails to meet the required standard. To help you understand these clearer SkyLofts have summarized the main points when considering loft conversion fire regulations below:

ESCAPE ROUTES

For most lofts, you will need to provide a protected route from your loft rooms to an outside door. The staircase itself may need plasterboarding and plastering below to provide 30 minutes protection.

Another means of escape is via the windows, all loft conversions require windows through which a person could escape if the stairway does not provide a safe escape route. Building regulations state that window openings must be 450mm or wider to comply with this. These windows should have non-locking fasteners.  At SkyLofts we recommend fire-resistant glass and release restrictions for windows in fire escape situations. Escape windows in the loft should be easy to access and close to eaves level, which is vital in case of a rescue from the outside.

NEW DOORS

Fire doors are essential for a loft conversion. You need to change any existing doors in the loft to fire doors and new doors added need to be fire rated. Building regulations state that you need to create a safe corridor from the loft to the outside of the building and this requires changing all the existing doors on rooms that are on the escape route. The reason for fitting fire doors is to provide an escape corridor between the loft and the external door, ensuring that if there was a fire anywhere in the house, those in the loft conversion could make a safe exit.

SMOKE ALARMS

Mains powered smoke alarms should be fitted on every story of your home. Usually, in the halls and landings and the alarms must all be linked so that they all sound, even if only one’s trigged. A battery backup will need to be provided to all floors (usually in the halls and landing areas). The alarms will need to be interlinked so that if one goes off, they all go off. This ensures that those who are in the loft are alerted immediately and have the best chance of escape

CEILINGS

Existing first floor ceilings will need to achieve 30 minutes fire resistance, this may require additional plaster boarding and plastering. In modern houses, gypsum plasterboard ceilings are normally adequate. However, if you have original lath and plasters ceilings (usually found in pre-1990 houses) then chicken wire can be used in the loft to hold the floor insulation in position creating a fire break that complies with current regulations.

SPRINKLERS

Many councils will now accept a small sprinkler system as an alternative to the above protection requirements. These can be expensive, particularly if your mains water pressure is low and water storage is required.

Careful planning at the early stages of a conversion is worthwhile. It means that you should benefit from the peace of mind that you have a complaint and safe loft. It also means you avoid having to carry out remedial work afterward. When working with SkyLofts we advise every step of the way with fire regulations and make sure your conversion complies.

A Few Good Reasons To Choose A Reputable Loft Conversion Company – Such As SkyLofts!

Posted by Stuart

A loft conversion is a perfect opportunity to gain some much-needed space and increase the value of your property. Having a loft conversion can be a relatively pain-free process if you get the right people on board. So if you are thinking of taking on the project yourself, SkyLofts would encourage you to think again. Even the most avid DIY fanatic would benefit from the support of a reputable loft conversion company. So below we have put together 10 good reasons why it is best to hire a professional:

1. Rules and Regulations 

Loft conversions are subject to a complex system of regulations and permissions. These could have you running from pillar to post if it is not something you do on a regular basis. A reputable loft conversion company will handle all of the administrative duties for you. Which will save you time and give you the peace of mind that your conversion is being carried out within the rules and regulations that apply.

2. Architect

Choosing the right architect to design your loft conversion can be hit or miss. Especially if you do not know the questions you need to be asking. Relying on friends for referrals is not ideal and you will definitely need an architect on board for your project. A respectable loft conversion company will have an architect, either as part of his team or in his list of close contacts. They will know exactly what is required from the architect and may indeed have negotiated lower fees than you could negotiate.

3. Structural Engineer

No matter what type of loft conversion you are planning you will need the services of a structural engineer. The structural engineer’s job is to make sure the alterations that you are planning will not have a detrimental effect on the structure of your home. Like choosing an architect, choosing a structural engineer is not for the faint-hearted and is best left to a reputable loft company who knows what makes a good structural engineer.

4. Ideas

However clear your ideas seem for your loft conversion, it is highly likely that there is something that you will not have thought about. A professional company has been there and converted lofts many times. They will be able to come up with ideas to make your project more effective. Meaning that in turn, the build will be less stressful and more likely to add value to your property. It’s surprising what ideas an external company can bring.

5. Insurance

In the unlikely event that it all goes horribly wrong, if you have chosen a reputable loft conversion company, they will have their insurance to fall back on. If your DIY conversion all goes wrong, you will have no one to turn to but yourself.

6. Costs

In a few cases, the DIY option seems cheaper, but many people forget to take into account the cost of their time. If time is plentiful in your life, that is not such a problem, but most people these days seem to have a shortage of spare time. In addition to saving you the cost of your time, a reputable companies likely to save you money on materials and have your loft conversion completed quicker than normally possible on a DIY basis. All of these add up to meaningful real cost savings and should always be considered.

7. Hassle

There is no getting away from the fact that any major house alteration can be a lot of hassle. If you decide to tackle your loft conversion yourself, you are more than likely to encounter your fair share of hassle. A loft conversion company can remove a good amount of this hassle. Even practical things like hoisting the materials directly into the loft or storing them off-site until they are required can save lots of disruption in your home. Either way, you can be sure the intrusion in your day to day life will be minimised by getting a good team on board.

8. Support

Any DIY enthusiast knows only too well that there are few places lonelier than the middle of a project that is going horribly wrong. Particularly when it impacts on the whole of your household. Working with a loft conversion company means that your project’s planned and organised to meet realistic timescales with your budget taken into consideration. If your loft company comes up with unforeseen problems, they will have the experience, experts, and manpower to sort. So even if you want to do some of the work yourself, make sure you have the support of a loft company behind you if and when you need it.

9. The Finished Article 

Apart from the most exceptional DIY experts, DIY is DIY and professional work is professional work. Nowhere is this difference more evident than in the end result. The finish of a job is what gives it its polish; the finish gives it the quality people remember. Top quality finish is really difficult to achieve on a DIY project. A reputable company will make sure your project is finished to your standards. Making your loft conversion something to be proud of for years to come.

10. Selling Your Home

Finally, an important reason to employ a professional company is the impact that a DIY conversion might have on the future value of your property. If you have converted your loft professionally, it is likely to add significant value to your property. A DIY loft conversion, without all the relevant certificates and guarantees, might just make your property impossible to sell.

Loft Conversion Cost Saving Tips

Posted by Stuart

With money tight and the property market uneasy at the best of times, a loft conversion can be a good alternative to moving if you need extra space and there are advantages to staying put and extending into the roof: it’s not as disruptive, you don’t have to pay stamp duty, and you may add value to your current property – SkyLofts have even put together some calculations in their article To Move Vs Improve. But how can you get work of high quality at a price that isn’t over the top? Here we’ve pulled together some loft conversion cost-saving tips.

1. Talk With Friends 

Ask friends for all the details of their experience with their loft build. If they were doing it again what would they do differently, and what do they wish they had known beforehand? Try and find out as much as you can, not only will you learn from their mistakes but you will be prepared for whats ahead when it comes to your conversion.

2. Close Your Eyes and Visualise 

Give thought to exactly what you want, a roof window or dormer; will it be en-suite; and do you want it tiled or slated? The more detail you give your builder early on the more accurate the quote will be. SkyLofts have pulled together a great page full of loft ideas to help inspire you.

3. See The Experts 

Try and obtain at least three quotes from your shortlist of loft specialists. If you do not know your jambs from your joists ask them to explain in layman’s terms what things mean and why they would use specific products.

When speaking to the companies be open and honest, you want to start the relationship well. Tell them you are getting other quotes and that quality workmanship and a good price will be the governing factors. It is sensible to tell them you will call them when all the quotes are in to let them know your thoughts. This is polite and fair as they have taken the time to offer you a quote. Remember that the lowest quote is not always the best one to go for, you may well be compromising on quality.

4. Do Not Make Assumptions 

Check what is and is not included in your quotes. Will they arrange a skip to take away rubbish or will you have to organise and pay for that separately? Does the quote cover installation of power points and lighting? If you have to choose between two quotes what would sway you either way? Perhaps if one includes a couple more sockets, fits the shower door or lowers the price by £500?

5. Cheap does not always equal best 

Your loft conversion is not about cutting costs, it is about getting good work at an equal price. When the quality of workmanship and materials are involved this should have a huge bearing on your choice. Hopefully, the quotes you receive will be reasonable, but if one is significantly more expensive (make sure you are comparing like for like) and you wish to use this company, query it with them, allow them to see the other quotes and give them a chance to explain and revise their quote.

SkyLofts pride themselves on offering their customers quality and service at a reasonable price, if you are thinking of having a loft conversion in the Surrey, Hampshire or South West London area then please contact SkyLofts on 01252 500 872 or email info@skylofts.co.uk for more information.

SkyLofts Highlight The Important Things To Consider When Planning A Loft Conversion

Posted by Stuart

When planning a loft conversion there are a few things you need to consider well in advance of starting. Appointing a specialist such as SkyLofts is usually a safe way of ensuring that you comply with all of the new building and fire regulations whilst doing so. SkyLofts have pulled together some things to consider when having your loft converted.

1.  Is your loft suitable to be converted into extra living space

Before getting excited over the thought of having a loft conversion there are some things you need to check. Firstly you need to know if converting your loft requires raising the height of your existing roof. Knowing this will save you a considerable amount of money, as well as the fact that some planning authorities will not permit it. For example, if the height between the existing floor joists/timbers in your loft and the underside of the roof ridge is approximately 2.2m then it is a good possibility that your loft can be converted without the need to raise the height of your existing roof. Check out this simple video that shows you an easy way to find out if your loft is convertible.

Loft conversion experts such as SkyLofts will carry out these checks for you. Another major consideration is whether your house was built before 1960. This is because older roof structures tend to require more structural work to convert them rather the newer type attic trussed roof structure used more commonly today.

2.  Call in the professionals

Most loft conversions require substantial structural work to be carried out. This type of work is not really suitable for the average DIY householder. Loft conversions generally need steel beams installed, existing floor and roof timbers upgraded and adequate fire/insulation materials to be used. Building regulations must be adhered too at all times. The staircase and internal doors generally need to be upgraded or replaced. The central heating boiler may need to be upgraded especially if the cold water tanks are in the loft. If the boiler is located in the loft this will need to be decommissioned whilst the conversion takes place for safety reasons.

3. Complying with building regulations

If you don’t comply with building regulations your house insurance will be void and should you later decide to sell your home then you may face a situation where you are unable to do so. It is wise to call in an expert to avoid problems later down the line. Although not all loft conversions require planning permission, they definitely have to comply with building regulations. As the work gets underway each stage will have to be inspected and at the end, certified by a fully qualified person. A certificate is then issued stating that the work was carried out in compliance with current regulations, which is also registered with your local authority. It is this department that solicitors liaise with, checking that any work carried out on a property has been correctly inspected and registered when buying or selling.

4.  Appointing an Architect 

An architect, engineer or surveyor will be required in order to determine the extra loads that having a loft conversion and creating extra living space will place on your home and of course to make sure that your property is still structurally sounded to sustain such a property improvement.  SkyLofts can provide a complete service so you don’t have to appoint different people to carry out different aspects of the work. Keeping it all under the responsibility of one company avoids communication issues and who is responsible for what and when.

5.  How much will a loft conversion cost

When planning a loft conversion you need to establish how much it is likely to cost.  SkyLofts are happy to come to you at no cost at all to discuss you loft requirement. We will then build a quote for the work, so you know how much you will need.

6.  Work out all of the costs before you start

SkyLofts will provide you with a written and itemised breakdown of what work is included. There have been many instances whereby we have taken over projects because a previous company has won a contract on price alone. Only for the customer to find that the price given did not include insulation, fire doors, a staircase etc. Ask questions to ensure you get it right.

8.  Know what to expect throughout the work

Any type of building work you have done is disruptive and for some people a little stressful no matter how good your builders are. There will be some noise and of course dust. One good tip is to try and establish how the work will be carried out and how long it will take. A fair proportion of work can be done from the outside, eliminating the need for your builders to enter your home from the start. A good loft conversion builder will try to carry out as much work with minimum disruption to you. Most of the time SkyLofts enter the property from the scaffolding we erect. Rather than through the house to carry out most of the necessary structural work that is required. Only when we have to cut into the ceiling to install the new staircase do we start entering the property to complete the project.

9.  Establish how long the work will take

To enable you to plan ahead try to establish how long the work will take once it has started.  Generally, it takes anything from six weeks onwards depending on the size and technical aspect of the project. It is always a good idea to let your neighbours know that you are having work done. So they can be prepared for the extra vehicles, skips, and deliveries that will be in the street. SkyLofts pride themselves on keeping both customer and their neighbours happy.

Space Saving Ideas For Your Loft Conversion

Posted by Stuart

Now a days the modern family is constantly changing and growing, with the addition of new family members and changing work practices it is becoming increasingly important for us to have homes that are able to adapt to suit our complex needs and increased belongings. Space is often the biggest issue that confronts homeowners, but with the high costs associated with moving in is simply not an option for the majority of us.

Luckily, there are plenty of ways that you can increase the size of your home (and value along the way) and avoid the hassle and expense that accompanies having to relocate to a larger home. SkyLofts have compiled a Don’t Move Improve article which is well worth a read on the cost benefits of improving via a loft conversion.

With this in mind SkyLofts have pulled together some great tips for making the most out of every millimetre of space in your loft conversion:

1. By making use of natural light in your loft conversion, painting the walls of your room white and adding a white, high gloss finish to doors allows natural light to bounce around your loft, making it appear and feel bigger than it actually is. White does not have to be boring either. A white base actually makes it a lot easier to incorporate a clear colour scheme into the room and introduce bold colours and patterns that are uniquely you. Naturally light also brings its own benefit – read SkyLofts article Natural Light, Naturally Beneficial for more information.

 

2. In your loft conversion it is a great idea to utilise every nook and cranny. A great example of this is fitting custom-built cupboards, cabinets, drawers and desks into the eaves space, which is the space in a loft where the roof slopes down to the floor. This space is often labelled as ‘redundant’ because it is usually no more than one metre hight, but it is spaces like these that are perfect for sneaking storage solutions into. SkyLofts have made many fantastic custom built wardrobes for customers and would be more than happy to recommend what would work best in your loft conversion.

3. When designing your loft conversion think up. Do not let your fear of heights get the better of you when trying to work out ways to incorporate storage solutions into your loft. Fit cupboards and shelves right up to the ceiling and store seasonal or decorative items in the hard-to-reach places.

4. Do not install doors that require them to open outwards and take valuable space, instead consider  a wardrobe with sliding doors. Industrial-style rails that run along the length of the wall work great with simple doors fitted to runners along the floor and ceiling.

 

5. Make use of mirrors as these are a tried and tested way of making a room appear larger than it actually is. Mirrors can even be used to conceal cupboards or sliding doors or purely as a design feature.

Fitting a shower enclosure under a sloping ceiling

Posted by Stuart

Having a bathroom in your loft conversions compliments your loft bedroom perfectly and have become an increasingly popular way to add value to your home in recent years.  However, it can sometimes be a difficult process to install a shower enclosure in a loft bathroom because of sloping angles and limited ceiling heights.

IMG_1368-HDR

A few years ago bespoke shower doors were a costly item, the good news is that now plenty of manufacturers make these bespoke doors, so prices are actually quite reasonable.

Here at SkyLofts we know several suppliers that offer you bespoke doors from as little as a few hundred pounds to the more luxury doors at the other end of the scale.

The average shower enclosure measures around 2 metres in height including the tray, so naturally if you have a lot of sloping ceilings in the corners of your loft this limits the places in which you can situate your shower enclosure. Many people compromise by opting for a small enclosure and losing the chance of using all the wasted space under the eaves.

This problem can be easily overcome by installing a bespoke shower enclosure that has been manufactured to meet the precise angles and height of your ceiling. The end result is a beautiful shower enclosure that actually makes the most out of the space in your bathroom and is individually tailored to your room.

If you are looking to have your loft converted and are considering installing a shower  in the Surrey, Hampshire and South West London area then please contact SkyLofts on 01252 500 872 or email info@skylofts.co.uk to discuss your options.

 

Your Loft Conversion, Natural Light. Naturally Beneficial.

Posted by Stuart

Your loft conversion is a great way to increase the naturally light inside your home. Light has the capability, if used properly, to reveal the true potential of your home. It can help you open up space, which will in turn help to make your house more desirable and have an impact on its value.

IMG_0951It can also help you turn a dark area of your home into somewhere the whole family can gather. Even by adding a single roof window to your loft conversion you will be able to see a noticeable difference in how often you can use it.

Roof Windows are ideal, whether you are looking to convert your loft into a playroom or wish to build a sun room where you can get away in the afternoons, your loft conversion and roof windows also have a number of benefits that come with it.

SkyLofts-7749

Here are just a few:

  • Studies carried out in hospitals have recognised that natural light actually accelerates the healing process.
  • We have all heard about the benefits of milk. But did you know that sunlight also has a similar positive effect? Sunlight causes your body to produce Vitamin D, which in turn helps to build strong teeth and bones, whilst boosting the immune system.
  • Just as natural light is good for you, a lack of it can have the opposite effect. Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a clinically diagnosed condition in which the lack of sunlight in winter makes people feel ill or depressed.
  • Natural light literally bounces off lighter coloured surfaces such as walls, floors and ceilings. So if you want to make a room feel bigger, consider pastels and creams.
  • You can notice the benefits of natural light in children. It helps them to concentrate, keeps them focused and less distracted and can improve academic performance.
  • 27% of carbon emissions come from your home, by supplying it with natural light instead of artificial light you can help change this statistic.

So what are you waiting for? With all these benefits a loft conversion with roof windows is a great way to obtain all the above benefits of natural light.

SkyLofts Five Financial Benefits Of Having Your Loft Converted

Posted by Stuart

As the property market starts to rise for the first time in six years, house prices are creeping up further and further. For many homeowners this is a tough time to decide what to do. Do you sell your home that you have raised your family in and where memories were made or do you try and make the most out of your home and stay put?

For many of you the latter will be the preferred option. The thought of moving can be daunting, especially when you start to consider the hassle and extra costs involved. Expanding your home is usually a much cheaper option and you can control the amount of expense going in to your expansion if you consider the following options:

A loft for the majority of us is simply a place for storage and clutter. However, if your loft has at least 2.2metres of head height (at the tallest point of the loft) then you could easily convert this into a habitable space for the extra room you need. Here are several reasons why a loft conversion can be a valuable investment to your property.

 

5D-1001

1. The cost of having your loft converted is usually considerable lower than moving house (SkyLofts Move Vs Improve article) and as the homeowner you can dictate what work you want to take place, making your loft into your ideal extra space that fits perfectly with your requirements.

2. Lofts are considerable energy efficient (SkyLofts eco-friendly loft conversions). With sufficient insulation to heat your loft space in the cooler months there is little need to have the heating on in the loft at all. The heat from the house below will travel upwards to your loft, keeping it relatively warm throughout those chilly periods of the year.

3. Loft conversions increase the total value of your property. A loft conversion can add on average 20% to the value of your house and even more in sought after areas. As the cost of living has increased with everything else, individuals are looking to renovate. Having a loft conversion can be a great way to benefit from this.

4. Your loft conversion can be rented as a room or studio loft. Many young couples and students are paying an arm and a leg for accommodation in sought after areas close to towns and transport links (especially around Farnborough and Guildford) which offer basic studio living. Your converted loft can be rented as a bedroom or a studio space if you want to add in the extra facilities. Often a separate entrance and staircase can be added to the side of the property for access to the loft if you prefer it isolated to the home.

5. The maintenance of a loft conversion is very minimal, as the main problems are usually solved during the build of the internal construction. Mains work such as electrics and plumbing are already controlled through the boiler and circuit board in the main property and links to the existing household usage. Therefore there are no separate panels to control for the loft.

Roof on Loft ConversionWhether you are looking to convert for commercial or residential reasons the outcomes can be fantastic and if done correctly your loft conversion could be a substantial investment. As converting your loft is a big project, design and planning are vital to ensure a smooth running process and the desired outcome. It is always important to employ a specialist company and SkyLofts will help you every step of the way from the initial survey to the signing off of building regulation certificates.
