HIP TO GABLE DORMER LOFT CONVERSION WITH REAR DORMER

Hip to gable loft conversions are, generally speaking, usually found on semi-detached properties that have an existing hipped roof. It’s this existing hip of the roof that’s extended upward, from what’s known as the ridgeline in order to create the gable, with a rear dormer being formed to, you guessed it, the rear of the property.

Once again, this is a very favourable option for homeowners as it offers a great solution in terms of maximising floor space as well as head room. For this reason, it also happens to be one of the most common types of loft conversion. 

Here at Clapham Construction Service, we’re asked by many clients to complete hip to gable and rear dormer loft conversions. By maximising space as much as possible, using this method of loft conversions, homeowners find themselves adding on additional bedrooms and ensuites, really pushing the return on their investment in terms of property value.
