Loft Conversions

Built for the way Bow’s homes were actually built

Bow is full of classic Victorian and Edwardian terraces — narrow plots, party walls on both sides, and roofs that have rarely been touched since the houses went up. Red Loft Extension has the experience to work within that reality: tight access, careful neighbour liaison, and roof structures that need a practised eye before a single tile comes off.

Whether you’re after an extra bedroom, a full kitchen extension with bi-folding doors, or a complete loft transformation, our team manages every stage in house: design, structural calculations, planning, and the build itself — so you deal with one team, not five different contractors.

What We Build

Loft conversion styles suited to Bow

Every property is different — here’s what we most commonly build in this area.

Dormer Conversions

The most popular option, adding full headroom and floor space within the existing roofline.

Hip to Gable

Ideal for semi-detached and end-of-terrace homes, maximising usable width.

L-Shaped Conversions

For larger properties wanting two new rooms, or a bedroom and en-suite combined.

Velux & Rooflight

A cost effective option that typically doesn’t require planning permission.

Finished Spaces

Real Bow homes, finished properly

From open-plan kitchen extensions flooded with skylight to bright new bedrooms with garden views, here’s the standard we build to on every Bow project.

  • Open-plan kitchen extensions with bi-folding doors and rooflights

Real builds, real craftsmanship

Every project is overseen by a dedicated project manager from the first day of scaffolding to the final handover — so you always know exactly what stage your build is at, and who to call if you have a question.

Common Questions

Loft conversions in Bow

Most loft conversions fall under permitted development and don’t need full planning permission. Some streets in Bow sit within conservation areas with their own rules — we’ll check this for you as part of your free consultation.

Most loft conversions take between 8 and 12 weeks from start to finish, depending on the scope of work and any structural changes required.

Yes. Bow’s classic terraces almost always involve a party wall on at least one side. We handle the party wall agreement, neighbour liaison and structural work as a standard part of every project.

A member of our team visits your property, discusses your goals and gives you an honest, no obligation view of what’s possible and what it’s likely to cost.
