Celebrating 25 Years of Loft Conversions & Extensions in South London. Call us today on 020 8673 4114.
A roof terrace loft conversion in South London is a super attractive way to expand your home. Merging a beautifully crafted loft space with a direct link to the outdoors brings you light-filled rooms with stunning views of the city skyline.
At South London Lofts, we specialise in designing and building bespoke roof terrace loft conversions that make the most of both the space you have and your lifestyle.
Taking a loft and adding a first-floor extension doesn’t just add square meters; it fundamentally changes how you live in your home.
Some of the benefits include:
A private outdoor space in crowded South London areas
Loads more natural light & fresh air
Panoramic views out over London
A nice big increase in the value of your home and how attractive it looks to buyers
An effortless indoor-outdoor living experience
Whether you’re after a quiet breakfast spot or an entertaining space for the evening, a roof terrace offers something really special.
Each house in South London has its own unique features, be it a Victorian in Clapham or an Edwardian in Dulwich. That’s why we approach every roof terrace conversion in a completely bespoke way.
We take into account:
The practicalities of building on your roof & the general layout
Making sure you’ve got enough privacy from the houses next door
The position of your roof for sunlight throughout the day
How to get access to the roof, maybe sliding doors or bi-folds
Using the best materials & finishes
This all adds up to a roof terrace that feels like a natural part of your home, not just an afterthought.
Unlike most regular loft conversions, roof terraces normally need planning permission because of the views & design things to consider.
Our team handles the whole process for you, including:
Architect plans & design for your new roof extension
Submitting your planning application to your local council
Working with them to iron out any objections & comply with the rules
Taking care of building reg’s & structural calculations
With loads of experience in all the South London boroughs, we know how to design roof terraces that both look great & comply with the rules.
We design a range of roof terrace styles to fit your home & what you want to do:
Built into the extension of a dormer, these are private & are ideal for people with terraced houses.
Less common but really striking, they give you great views out to the street, as long as planning allows.
A premium option that gives you loads of internal space plus a big terrace.
A good alternative if full roof terraces aren’t an option, still brings in loads of natural light.
My neighbour did his loft conversion last year and I was really impressed with the quality of work carried out by South London Lofts. At the outset, we discussed the issue of the party wall agreement, and agreed to avoid the need for party wall surveyors and the extra cost this incurs. I felt that I trusted the work of this company, which was why I chose them to do my loft too. How chuffed I was by the results. I suppose one of the highlights of South London Lofts’ service was their use of builders who were polite, efficient and skilled; I can honestly state that I could find no fault throughout the 10 week build time: rare for a project such as this. Their price was more than reasonable, too. And so I have used South London Lofts on another project – I am perhaps the ultimate satisfied customer!
A quick note to say that we were extremely impressed with your guys who have basically revamped the entire house in 8 weeks. Anthony and Ramas were very pleasant to work with and the finish is very good- we are very happy.
All certification delivered as agreed and the project delivered on time (if not ahead of time). We would not hesitate to recommend the team to other people. Thank you. Anthony Ambrose RIBA
We are absolutely delighted with our kitchen extension. South London Lofts actually extended into the dead space that was the side return and knocked down a chimney breast to create a light modern very spacious kitchen. SLL did a fantastic job for us. Our project manager Virgis, kept everything on track and kept us fully consulted and informed all the way through. The whole team, brickies, electricians, plumbers, roofers worked extremely hard. The quality of workmanship is excellent. The kitchen is now the focal point of family life in our home. We had chosen SLL since they had done a wonderful job building our loft rooms in 2008. We made the right choice.
