Loft Conversions & Dormers in Guiseley by BMK Joinery & Building

Guiseley sits in Aireborough, north-west of Leeds, an area we cover regularly from our base. We provide loft conversions & dormers for homeowners in Guiseley (LS20) and nearby Horsforth, Otley and Ilkley.

Loft space in 1930s to 1980s semis and detached houses around Guiseley is often well suited to a rear dormer, adding a bedroom and en-suite without changing the front of the house. Many bungalows can also take a dormer or roof lift to create bedrooms upstairs.

A dormer or loft conversion adds real floor area and headroom without using any of your garden. We build timber-framed dormers, form the structural openings, fit insulation, roof windows and cladding, and leave the space ready for plastering and decoration.

  • Flat-roof and gable dormers
  • Timber frame, insulation and weatherproofing
  • Slate-effect, tile and zinc cladding
  • Roof windows and window installation
  • Structural steelwork and floor strengthening
  • Staircases and access to the new room
Local knowledge

Building and joinery in Guiseley

The area has stone terraces near the centre, interwar and post-war semis, and newer homes on the surrounding hills. That means dormers on semis, extensions on larger plots and refurbishment of older terraces.

Many loft conversions fall under permitted development, subject to volume limits and materials. Building Regulations approval is always needed and is signed off by Leeds City Council building control or an approved inspector.

Guiseley is covered by Leeds City Council. Some older parts may fall in conservation areas, and we check whether your property is affected before we price external work.

What affects the price

Loft Conversions & Dormers costs in Guiseley

Loft conversion costs vary with the roof shape, the type of conversion and the finish. We carry out a free survey and give a written quote, so you can see exactly what is included.

  • The roof type and whether a dormer, hip to gable or Velux conversion suits it
  • Floor strengthening and steelwork
  • Staircase position and the headroom available
  • Insulation, cladding and window specification
  • Whether you add an en-suite and the amount of electrical and plumbing work

As a loft conversion company we build dormer, hip to gable and Velux loft conversions, attic conversions and loft bedrooms with en-suites, including the staircase to reach them.
