Homes in Raheny and what that means for attic conversion
Raheny is mostly 1950s–1970s semi-detached family homes with good-sized gardens, near St Anne's Park and the coast. Raheny is in Dublin 5 and falls under Dublin City Council.
1970s–1990s estate homes often have trussed roofs, which need an engineer to redesign the structure before conversion. Period homes often have low-pitched or complex roofs and may be in conservation areas, which limits dormer options and makes careful design and planning essential. Exposed coastal homes need dormers and rooflights detailed for wind-driven rain.
What to check before you hire a attic conversion company
- Ask whether the conversion will meet Building Regulations for a habitable room, or be classed as storage
- Ask who handles planning permission if a dormer is involved
- Check that an engineer designs any structural changes
- Ask for a certificate of compliance with the Building Regulations at the end
- Get a fixed price that clearly states what is included (stairs, electrics, plumbing, finishes)

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you cover Raheny and nearby areas?
Yes. We cover Raheny, Malahide, Howth, Sutton and Portmarnock and the rest of Dublin North Coast.
What attic conversion problems are common in Raheny?
1970s–1990s estate homes often have trussed roofs, which need an engineer to redesign the structure before conversion. Period homes often have low-pitched or complex roofs and may be in conservation areas, which limits dormer options and makes careful design and planning essential. Exposed coastal homes need dormers and rooflights detailed for wind-driven rain.
Do I need planning permission for an attic conversion?
A conversion with rear rooflights is often exempt, but dormers generally need planning permission. Check with your council, especially in conservation areas.
Can my attic be used as a bedroom?
Only if it meets the Building Regulations for habitable rooms, including fire safety, stairs, headroom and ventilation. Otherwise it is classed as storage.
How long does an attic conversion take?
Typically four to eight weeks, depending on size and whether dormers are involved.
Does an attic conversion add value?
A compliant conversion usually adds value. A non-compliant 'storage' conversion adds less and can raise questions during a sale.
