Gable Loft Conversions

A Gable Loft Conversion involves extending the existing ridge of your roof, typically at the rear of the property, to create additional headroom and usable space. This type of conversion is particularly popular for semi-detached and detached homes where extending the existing roofline outwards is feasible.

Velux Loft Conversions

This type of conversion works within the existing roofline, with the primary alteration being the installation of Velux or other roof windows. While it provides less additional volume than a dormer or gable conversion, it floods the new space with natural light, making it perfect for an extra bedroom, a bright study, or a tranquil relaxation area.

Garage Extensions and Conversions

Whether you’re looking to extend your garage to create a larger functional space or convert it into a valuable habitable room, Up and Out Builds Ltd can help. We can transform your disused garage into a vibrant home office, an additional bedroom, a utility room, a functional gym, or something else entirely.

Summer Houses

Extend your living space beyond the main house with a beautifully designed and constructed summer house. Perfect for creating a garden office, an art studio, a playhouse for children, or a peaceful retreat, our summer houses are built to last. We offer bespoke designs that complement your garden and property, focusing on quality materials, insulation for year-round use, and thoughtful finishes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a gable loft conversion right for my home?

Gable conversions work well on many semi-detached and detached homes. By extending the ridge of the roof outwards, a gable conversion creates extra space in the loft for a bedroom, office or whatever else you need. Our team can look at your roof and let you know whether a gable or a dormer would suit your home better.

What are the benefits of a Velux loft conversion?

A Velux conversion works within your existing roofline, so the outside of your home stays much as it is. Roof windows fill the space with natural light, making it a lovely spot for a study, guest room or quiet retreat.

Can a summer house be used all year round?

It can. Our summer houses are insulated for year-round use, making them ideal as a garden office, art studio, playroom or peaceful retreat. Each one is bespoke, designed to suit your garden and your home.

Can you draw up plans and handle my planning application?

Yes. Our designers produce the building plans and drawings for your project, and we can take care of the planning application and Building Regulations approval for you, dealing directly with the planning officers and building control.
