You love your Leicester home, but it’s getting a bit tight. Maybe you’ve added a couple of kids, started working from home, or simply need more breathing room. Whatever the reason, moving house isn’t always the answer. Not when there’s perfectly good space going to waste just above your head. That’s where loft conversions come in.
At Construction Interior Design Ltd, we’ve been transforming attics into beautiful, usable spaces for over 25 years. Loft conversions Leicester homeowners trust aren’t just about adding value (though they do that too), they’re about making your house actually fit your life. We handle the whole process, from early ideas to final touches, keeping it tidy, efficient, and stress-free.
Before getting stuck into design ideas, let’s talk logistics. Not every loft is ideal for conversion, so we look at a few basics:
Head height – You’ll need around 2.2 metres at the highest point. If your loft is a bit short, we might still make it work, but it could involve raising the roof or lowering ceilings below.
Roof type – Older homes with traditional rafters are easier to convert than modern truss-roofed ones. But don’t worry, we’ve tackled both.
Access – You’ll need space for a proper staircase. If that’s tight, we’ll explore smart ways to fit one in without eating into your existing rooms.
We’ll give you an honest assessment upfront. If a conversion’s not viable, we’ll say so. But chances are, we can find a way.
A loft renovation in Leicester is more than a quick fix. It offers a long-term solution that can dramatically improve how you live in your home.
Extra space without extending – Bedrooms, home offices, playrooms, art studios… we’ve seen it all.
No garden sacrificed – Your outdoor space stays untouched, unlike with ground-floor extensions.
Cheaper than moving – Avoid estate agent fees, removals, and the emotional cost of leaving a home you love.
Adds value – A well-designed loft conversion can boost your property’s resale value by up to 20%.
Energy efficient – With modern insulation and double glazing, your new loft room will be warm, quiet, and cost-effective to heat.
Different homes need different solutions. We offer several styles of loft conversions in Leicester:
Dormer conversions – A box-like extension that adds headroom and floor space. One of the most popular and versatile options.
Velux (rooflight) conversions – Quick, affordable, and perfect for lofts with good height. Minimal structural changes needed.
Hip-to-gable conversions – Extends the sloping side of the roof to create more room. Great for semis and bungalows.
Mansard conversions – A more dramatic transformation, turning your loft into a full additional storey. Best for larger builds.
We’ll guide you on the best fit for your home and budget.
We’re based in the region and know the houses here well. Aside from Leicester itself, we also work across:
