Is space an issue? Why not consider an attic or loft conversion? Quite often a simple solution to space constraints is just above us - a substantial roof cavity doing nothing other than storing never-to-be-seen-again trinkets from yesteryear. For some, this renovation comes with a whole new aspect on life - that is some great new views.
So whether you are wanting a new master bedroom complete with ensuite, walk-in robe and a deck or a modest quiet nook then exploring an attic conversion is a great place to start.
Which option is right for you?
Like any successful attic or loft renovation project the 80/20 rule applies - that is 80% planning and 20% doing. So the place to start is a design that meets the needs of your family, both today and for the duration of your stay.
There are a few alternatives when considering doing an attic conversion such as:
The use of dormer windows to create space
Re-pitching the roof to extend the usable space
Lifting the whole roof to add another storey
The use of decks to create usable space
Any mixture of the above

5 ways we can give you a helping hand
If you’re talking to anyone else about your home renovation or extension plans, do yourself a favour. Ask them if they offer everything you see at right – the Pzazz Building 5-step Renovation Process.
If you’re thinking about a relatively extensive renovation, it would also pay you to ask them if they offer 3D Design or 3D Video Walkthroughs so you can truly experience the completed project and make any adjustments to your plans before your project gets started.
It all starts with our In Home Consultation where you will find out if your ideas are feasible, if you need a permit and what the best solutions are.
