Mansard Loft Conversions – Maximise Your Home’s Space & Style

 

A mansard loft conversion is one of the best ways to add significant space and value to your home. This type of conversion creates a near-vertical rear wall with a gently sloping roof, offering maximum headroom and floor space. At South London Lofts, we specialise in designing and building high-quality mansard conversions tailored to your needs.

Why Choose a Mansard Loft Conversion?

Mansard conversions are a popular choice for homeowners looking for:

  • More space – Ideal for creating large bedrooms, home offices, or even self-contained apartments.
  • Aesthetic appeal – The design blends seamlessly with period and modern homes.
  • Increased property value – A well-designed loft can boost your home’s market price.
  • Better natural light – Large windows or Juliet balconies enhance brightness and ventilation.

Is a Mansard Loft Conversion Right for Your Home?

Mansard conversions are particularly suited to terraced and period properties, but they can also work for semi-detached and detached homes. They require planning permission, but our team will handle the entire application process for you.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
  • 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.
