Transform Your Home with Loft Conversions in Worthing, Chichester & All Surrounding South Eastern Locations | OCH GROUP

When your home begins to feel spatially restrictive, there are many potential avenues you can take. There’s the possibility of investing in a property extension, though these often require planning permission and constitute a fairly substantial investment. Alternatively, you could look to move. But this can be a hugely time consuming, costly and stressful process; besides – you might be comfortable and happy in your current locale. Here’s where the beauty of loft conversions becomes apparent: they involve the transformation of often underused space, into a brand-new statement room to see however you see fit.

The Worthing based OCH GROUP works with clients throughout Sussex and the wider south east to deliver bespoke loft conversions which help redefine how they view and use their home. With a team of construction industry veterans all here under one roof, we can handle every aspect of the project from start through to completion, from drawing up in-depth architectural designs which accommodate and develop your ideas, to the kinds of finishing touches that separate our work from the competition.

Our loft conversions can be used however you see fit. Perhaps you’d like a new master bathroom, to ease traffic in your existing one; you might be wishing to create another bedroom to accommodate guests or an imminent arrival; your work from home lifestyle may mean a dedicated home office is an investment that simply makes sense. Whatever your circumstances, our team of seasoned architects and qualified builders will ensure the space is totally transformed to meet your needs, ticking every box on your wish list and maximising the amount of value you add to your property.

Types of Loft Conversions

Some lofts have the right shape and size as to involve minimal structural work; these loft conversions simply involve fitting out the infrastructure and decorative elements to make the space suitable for its intended use. But there are many other loft conversions that our builders can carry out should we need to create more headroom and lateral space. These include:

  • Dormer Conversion – A dormer is a structural extension that projects vertically from the plane of a sloping roof, creating additional floor space with increased headroom and natural light.
  • Rooflight Conversion – This involves adding roof windows (such as Velux windows) to an existing pitched roof to bring in natural light. They’re a cost-effective way to convert a loft while maintaining the original roof structure.
  • Hip-to-Gable Conversion – This type involves extending the hip roof (sloping sides) of a property to create a gable end (vertical wall), resulting in more usable space within the loft.
  • Mansard Conversion – A Mansard conversion features a flat roof with the back wall sloping inwards at an angle of 72 degrees. This style maximises interior space and often requires significant alterations to the existing roof structure; expect to require planning permission.
  • Gable-End Conversion – Similar to a hip-to-gable conversion, this style involves extending the gable end of the house to create additional space within the loft area.

However the task is approached, the aim will be to ensure the space is well lit, airy and well-insulated, to make it easy and affordable to heat year-round.
