KOSMOS / RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION

Conversions

Loft conversions and garage conversions in Manchester and surrounding areas. Make more of your existing property with construction, insulation, access and interior finishing coordinated as one project.

Plan the work as a whole.

For a loft conversion, assess the existing roof, usable headroom and stair access. For a garage conversion, assess the existing structure, floor levels, moisture protection, openings and intended use. The design, required approvals, insulation and building services should be coordinated around the property before construction starts.

Care at every interface.

KOSMOS coordinates conversion work from structural alterations and openings to insulation, plumbing, electrical work, plastering and interior finishing. The photographs below show related roof construction and staircase workmanship from our projects; they are not presented as completed garage-conversion examples.

Questions before you build.

Will my loft need planning permission?

That depends on the property, proposed alterations and applicable restrictions. We recommend checking the specific proposal with the local planning authority and an appointed designer before work starts.

What information helps an initial discussion?

Send existing photographs, any measured drawings, the intended use of the rooms and any structural or planning documents already available.
