Enfield Loft Extensions To Suit Your Needs

Extensions are a great way to make the most of your property while giving you and your family extra space designed around your needs. Our dedicated team will work with you in Enfield, meeting every aspect of your requirements. If you are renovating a property to let or sell, an extension is a great way to increase its value too.

Loft Conversions For Every Home Across Enfield

Alternatively, a loft conversion is another great way to turn an unused attic into a main bedroom suite, home office or spare bedroom. With our years of experience in the trade, we know what it takes to deliver high-quality work, whatever the job.

We cover everything from design and planning to the installation of equipment, paying close attention to every detail as we go.

Add Value To Your Enfield Home

If you want to see a return when you sell your home, a loft conversion is a great way to add value, especially in well connected places like Enfield. You could add a new bedroom with an ensuite, a home office, or even a roof deck. A bedroom tends to add the most value, but rather than focusing only on value, it is important to think about how you will use the space most of the time.

Loft Conversions for Enfield Terraces & 1930s Semis

Enfield’s housing ranges from Edwardian terraces to interwar suburbs, and each suits a different kind of loft conversion.

Edwardian and Victorian terraces, such as those around Palmers Green and Bush Hill Park, often suit a rear dormer, or an L-shaped conversion where the house has a rear outrigger.

1930s semi-detached and detached houses, found across Southgate, Winchmore Hill, Oakwood and much of Enfield, typically have hipped roofs. A hip-to-gable conversion with a rear dormer opens these lofts up into a generous bedroom suite.

Planning & building regulations

Planning a Loft Conversion with Enfield Council

Enfield has 22 conservation areas, and several of them, including Bush Hill Park, Enfield Town, Winchmore Hill, Southgate Green and Hadley Wood, are covered by Article 4 directions that remove some permitted development rights. Roof extensions such as dormers in conservation areas need planning permission in any case.

Outside these areas, many loft conversions can go ahead as permitted development. We check the rules for your address at the start and make any application to Enfield Council on your behalf, then manage building regulations through to completion.

We used Mark and Unique Lofts for an L-shaped dormer. The team were facilitative of a two-stage planning process to maximise the amount of space we could add. The team were great on-site, and build quality was high.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had our loft conversion completed by Unique lofts Ltd. We couldn’t be happier with the experience we had from start to finish.
From day one, Ben and his team set the tone; punctual, professional, and genuinely respectful to our home. The site was kept clean and tidy throughout, which made a huge difference to daily life, during the conversion. They were organised, communicated well, and delivered the project on time in just six weeks.
The quality of work was always of a high standard. The care and professionalism of the team really stood out during and after the conversion. We could see that they took real pride in their work.
We would highly recommend Unique lofts and the team to anyone considering a loft conversion.

Mark handled all the paper processes and Ben (together with Martin)  was the onsite manager organising all the deliveries and timings of other contractors. They were a pleasure to have working on site. Tidying each evening and very careful as were the tradesmen on the team. All in all a credit to the industry.

The team were facilitative of a two-stage planning process to maximise the amount of space we could add. The team were great on-site, and build quality was high. They suggested alternative approaches to e.g. skylights and windows to save money. We'd use UL again for future extensions.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had a loft conversion with Unique Lofts and I would highly recommend. Very professional and courteous team, communication was great, on time and work completed on schedule even with additional work being carried out. We’re very happy with the end result, rooms more spacious than we expected (head height in particular) and all completed to a very high standard. The project did come in above our budget, but this is due to additional work we requested and some unforeseen work, all of which was explained fully by the team and options were provided before agreeing on the best way forward. Overall we’re very satisfied and I would highly recommend.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a very positive experience with Mark and the Unique Lofts team for our loft conversion. I would highly recommend them.

Michael and Brad (our team) were friendly, dedicated and hardworking. Our neighbours, who had the skip chute cross their garden, also shared how considerate and friendly they were.

Michael kept me in the loop, followed up on my enquiries and gave some really helpful advice in moving airing cupboards and opening up the loft space for more natural light.

All in all, highly recommended.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would highly recommend Unique Lofts and was lucky to find them after another firm let us down. Our team were Ben, Martin and Connor who have been considerate, incredibly skilled and hard working. Even our neighbours commented on what nice guys they were. Ben was our main contact and kept me updated, followed up on my enquiries and turned up when they said they would. Every trades person Unique used turned up on time, cleaned up after themselves, were professional and very good at their jobs. Unique invoiced exactly as quoted and were a pleasure to work with. Thank you Unique Lofts!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ben and his team were really helpful and communicative through the whole project. They finished in the time quoted and kept us informed with updates daily and we could always get hold of them on WhatsApp too. They were courteous, respectful and did a great job. Mark was always available too and happy to answer our question. The work was completed on time, to a high standard and within the quote given to us. We are really pleased with our new loft and would highly recommend Unique Lofts.
