What are the benefits of a loft conversion?
In recent years, loft conversions have surged in popularity across Worthing as homeowners seek affordable and effective ways to maximise usable loft space and add value to their properties. Loft conversions can provide a wide range of benefits, both for you and your home.
✓ Gain valuable extra living space
We can help design a custom loft conversion that suits your lifestyle, whether you need an extra bedroom for a growing family, a tranquil home office, a spacious area for your creative hobbies, or flexible entertaining space. With a loft conversion, you can create the ideal layout to enhance your life.
✓ Improve energy efficiency
Around 25% of property heat loss occurs via poorly insulated lofts and roof spaces. Converting your loft provides the ideal opportunity to significantly improve energy efficiency. We’ll ensure your new living space has optimal insulation, reducing your carbon footprint and slashing those annual energy bills.
✓ Make the most of spectacular views
Worthing’s idyllic seaside location offers breath-taking coastal views. Installing well-positioned Velux or dormer roof windows during your loft conversion allows you to fully capitalise on the area’s enviable vistas. We’ll design bright, contemporary spaces that make the most of the views.
✓ Add substantial value to your home
Industry figures indicate a professionally designed and constructed loft conversion can increase your Worthing home’s value by up to 20% – making it a savvy and lucrative property investment. Extending upwards to create extra living space adds significant appeal for future buyers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will my loft be suitable for conversion?
Most loft spaces can be converted, but some projects are more complex. We’ll survey your available dimensions, heights, angles and access to advise the best loft design options. Velux and dormer conversions tend to be simpler. Typically at least 2.2m headroom is needed.
Do I need planning permission for a loft conversion?
Many residential loft conversions can proceed without full planning permission if criteria is met. However it’s best to check with Worthing Council on requirements for your property and area. We’ll provide guidance on any consents needed.
How long will a loft conversion take?
Timescales vary depending on the complexity of plans. As a guide, simple Velux or dormer lofts usually take around 6-8 weeks. More intricate projects need longer, especially if planning approval is required. We’ll help to confirm accurate timeframes for your loft and keep you up to date throughout the project.
