Attic Conversions
At Colin Taaffe Roofing, we have successfully delivered attic conversions on behalf of clients and typically, most timber framed homes are suitable candidates for an attic conversion.
To establish whether your home is suitable, we would initially carry out a roof inspection using a qualified structural engineer who will then specify the exact nature of the support structure to be used.
Our structural engineer will also issue you with the certificate of compliance afterwards which would be important for any future sale of your home.
There is also legal requirement to comply with building regulations related to fire safety. The purpose of these fire safety requirements is to safeguard you and your family, should a fire occur in your home.
The following leaflet, provided by the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government highlights the principal fire safety issues which should be considered on all attic conversion projects.
