As residential property values continue to rise across West London, homeowners in Ealing are increasingly looking for innovative ways to make the most of their existing homes. Among the most effective and value-enhancing solutions is a professionally designed and built loft extension. Whether the objective is to create an additional bedroom, home office, or luxury en-suite, a loft extension can significantly enhance both living space and market value.
At Crest Projects, we specialise in delivering bespoke loft extensions in Ealing, providing end-to-end services tailored to the architectural character of your property and your specific lifestyle requirements.
Why Choose a Loft Extension in Ealing?
Located in the London Borough of Ealing, the area is known for its Victorian terraces, Edwardian homes, and spacious semi-detached properties. Many of these homes feature large attic spaces that, when properly converted, offer substantial potential for expansion.
Opting for a loft extension presents numerous advantages, including:
- Maximising existing space without reducing garden area
- Increasing property value by up to 20%
- Cost-effectiveness when compared to moving to a larger home
- Enhanced flexibility, allowing for a variety of new living areas
- Permitted development rights, which can reduce the need for full planning permission
Our Loft Extension Services in Ealing
Crest Projects delivers a comprehensive loft extension solution, managing everything from architectural design to construction, regulatory approvals, and final interior finishing. Our in-house team ensures the process is efficient, compliant, and tailored to your needs.
We offer the following types of loft extensions, depending on your property type and goals:
1. Dormer Loft Extensions
The most common type of loft extension in Ealing, dormer extensions provide additional headroom and usable floor space by projecting vertically from the roof. They are ideal for creating bright, airy bedrooms or modern home offices.
2. Hip-to-Gable Loft Extensions
This extension transforms the sloping side of a hipped roof into a vertical wall, greatly increasing the internal volume of your loft space. Suitable for semi-detached and end-of-terrace houses, it can be combined with a rear dormer for maximum impact.
3. Mansard Loft Extensions
A mansard extension modifies the roof structure to create a flat roof and a steep rear wall, maximising internal space. These are particularly common in areas of Ealing where architectural consistency is key. Planning permission is usually required.
4. Velux (Rooflight) Extensions
This minimalist and cost-effective solution involves installing rooflights into the existing pitch of the roof. It’s ideal when height is already sufficient and there’s no need for structural alterations.
