A Velux (roof light) conversion works entirely within the existing roof structure, adding roof lights to bring in natural light without altering the roofline. It is the fastest and most affordable loft conversion type, typically falling within Permitted Development rights and requiring no planning permission.
The price range above covers the full project — including your structural engineer, all building materials, labour, and building regulations sign-off. We provide fully itemised quotes so you know exactly what you are paying for.
What Affects the Cost?
Loft Size
Floor area and ridge height directly affect material and labour costs. Larger lofts cost more but add proportionally more value.
Roof Pitch
Steeper pitches provide more natural headroom and are generally cheaper to convert. Shallow pitches may require more structural work.
Structural Work
Some conversions require steel beams, new joists, or party wall agreements. These add cost but are included in our fixed-price quotes.
Specification
The quality of windows, insulation, flooring, and fixtures affects the final price. We offer a full range of specification levels.
Planning
Most conversions fall under Permitted Development. Conservation areas or Article 4 zones may need a planning application (typically £200–£500 in fees).
Location
London and South East properties typically fall at the upper end of price ranges due to higher labour costs.
