Trussed Roof Loft Conversion
Convert a modern W‑trussed roof into liveable space with engineered solutions.
Homes built from the 1960s often use factory‑made trusses that fill the loft. We redesign the structure with steels and new timbers to open up the space safely and efficiently.
What is a Trussed Roof Conversion?
We remove selected internal webs of the W‑truss and introduce a steel frame and new joists/rafters to carry the loads, creating a clear floor area for bedrooms, an office, or a studio.
Key Features
- Engineered conversion for modern W‑trussed roofs
- Introduces steels and new structural members safely
- Unlocks otherwise unusable ‘dead space’
- Ideal for post‑1960s homes and new‑builds
FAQ: Trussed Roof Conversions
Do I need planning permission?
Planning needs depend on external massing. Internally re‑structuring trusses is governed by Building Regulations and structural approval.
How long does a Trussed Roof conversion take?
Expect around 8–12 weeks depending on steelwork, access and interior fit‑out.
Is my trussed roof suitable?
Yes — many modern estates use trusses. We assess spans, bearings and load paths to design the correct steel solution.
