Why move out when you can just move up

As long as your loft is suitable for conversion, LiNioR has the experience to do it professionally and efficiently. We work out how to accommodate your water tank to give you maximum usable floor area. We insulate your new roof-space to keep your house cosy in the winter and ventilate to keep it fresh in summer. We can help you find clever places for storage that leave you with maximum standing room.

So if you need an out-of-the-way office space where you can get on with work, a more private area for guests to relax or just an extra bedroom to accommodate a growing family, consider the extra space that might already be under your roof. Literally…

A beautifully designed, expertly engineered loft conversion could seamlessly extend your living area and give you and your family the breathing space you need. Maximising the potential of your property with a loft conversion can also improve the value of your home when you come to sell.

   - No extension to be higher than the highest part of the roof

   - No verandas, balconies or raised platforms
   - Side-facing windows to be obscure-glazed; any opening to be 1.7m above the floor
   - Roof extensions not to be permitted development in designated areas**
   - Roof extensions, apart from hip to gable ones, to be set back, as far as practicable, at least 20cm from the original eaves
