There is little doubt that bedroom loft conversions are the most popular projects amongst house owners looking to extend the living capacity of their homes. The reasons for this are pretty clear:
- The loft provides a blank canvas on which the home owner can design any style bedroom they wish rather than having to fit their ideas into the existing room lay-out
- It is so easy to add an en-suite bathroom to the bedroom and that bathroom can be quite sizeable and, again, laid out exactly as the owners want it rather than having to adapt an existing space
- Building bedroom loft conversions allows the existing bedrooms to be converted into hobby rooms or offices, or for two existing small bedrooms to be knocked into one
- And last, but not least, us Brits (usually) like our bedrooms to be at the top of the house, and you can't get much closer to the top of the house than in the roof!
One of the massive points in favour of bedroom loft conversions is that with the use of large skylights the room can be blessed with huge tracts of natural light. In the evening, the large windows will provide a wonderful panoramic view of the night sky. Remotely operated electric window blinds will enhance the bedroom and will just add that luxurious finishing touch.
One of the most attractive elements of bedroom loft conversions is the option of including a sizeable en-suite bathroom. Though bathrooms are fairly easy to add to the roof space the major consideration is of course the extra plumbing that needs to be installed.
One of the first things to be done when converting the loft is to get rid, or relocate, the old water tank. One solution is to dispose of the tank altogether and install a combi boiler. This will make the whole plumbing part of the project easier but may not be the option that the householder wants or can afford. If a combi boiler isn't installed than the water tank will need to be replaced and then relocated.
Plastic water tanks are much longer lasting than older tanks but still need to be relocated - the best solution is usually under the eaves behind the new panelling. The only drawback here is that access must be unrestricted and insulated cupboard doors and boarding must also be built in.
With the sheer adaptability of an empty roof space and the easy addition of an en-suite bathroom a bedroom of designer luxury can be created in most roof spaces. No wonder bedrooms are the preferred option of so many home owners when they plan to convert their lofts.
