Homes in West Dublin & Leixlip and what that means for attic conversion
1960s–1980s estates in Palmerstown, Clondalkin and older parts of Lucan and Leixlip, a historic village core in Chapelizod, and one of Dublin's newest planned towns in Adamstown.
1970s–1990s estate homes often have trussed roofs, which need an engineer to redesign the structure before conversion. Newer homes can have lower roof pitches and trussed roofs, so headroom and structure need to be checked early. 1930s–1960s hipped-roof semi-detached homes are classic candidates for hip-to-gable or rear dormer conversions.
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)
