Attic Conversion & Structural Joinery

 Intro

​

We were commissioned to carry out a full attic conversion, transforming an unused roof space into a functional and well-finished living area.

The project involved structural alterations, installation of rooflights and a full internal fit-out, delivering a clean, modern space while working within the constraints of the existing building.

 

 The Brief

​

The client was looking to maximise the available space within the property by converting the attic into a usable rooms.

 

Key requirements included:

​

• Structural alterations to support the new layout

• Installation of rooflights to introduce natural light

• A clean, well-finished interior suitable for everyday use

• A layout that made efficient use of the available head height

 

 The Work Carried Out

​

The project involved multiple stages, starting with structural work and progressing through to final finishing.

Works included:

​

• Installation of structural steel to support the new floor and roof loads

• Formation of the new floor structure

• Installation of rooflights to improve natural light

• Insulation and plastering throughout

• Full internal joinery and finishing

 

 The Detail

​

Working within an attic space requires careful planning and precision, particularly where head height, angles and structural constraints are involved.

Attention was given to:

​

• Achieving clean lines around rooflight openings

• Ensuring a consistent and high-quality plaster finish

• Accurate joinery work around door openings and transitions

• Creating a practical and comfortable finished space

 

 The Result

​

The completed attic conversion provides a bright, functional space that integrates seamlessly with the rest of the property.

By combining structural work with careful finishing, the result is a well-executed conversion that maximises the available space while maintaining a clean, high-quality finish.
