Loft Conversions

Domestic loft conversions have gained enormously in popularity as a way of providing more space without the substantial cost of moving house. One third of all new build houses have lofts that can be used for habitation.

This book provides a technical manual for construction practitioners, as well as the self-build market on the technical, design and regulatory aspects of loft conversions for dwellings.
