Velux loft conversions

Services

The simplest and most affordable way to transform your unused attic into a bright, practical living space.

What Is a Velux Loft Conversion?

A Velux loft conversion (also known as a roof-light conversion) is the simplest way to convert an existing loft into a usable room.

Instead of altering your roof structure, we fit Velux windows flush to the existing roofline — instantly adding light, ventilation, and comfort.

Velux conversions are the most cost-effective loft upgrade, delivering strong ROI and improved comfort without major disruption.

  • No major structural changes — quick installation with minimal disruption.
  • Adds natural daylight and ventilation using genuine Velux roof windows.
  • Perfect for attic offices, studios or spare rooms.
  • Often falls under permitted development — no planning permission needed.
  • Fast, affordable and high-impact home improvement.

FAQ's

Questions our clients ask

Have questions about how our process works, what to expect, or how to get started? We’ve answered some of the most common queries below to help you plan your project with confidence.

Contact Us
  • Do I need planning permission for a Velux loft conversion?

    Usually not. Velux conversions fall under permitted development as long as the roofline isn’t altered. We’ll confirm this during your survey.

  • How long does a Velux conversion take?

    Typically 2–4 weeks from start to finish, depending on finish level and electrics.

  • Is it suitable for every home?

    Yes, if your loft has enough headroom and sound roof structure. We’ll check that during your site visit.

  • Can I install multiple Velux windows?

    Absolutely. Many clients add 2–4 windows to maximise daylight and airflow.

  • How much does it cost?

    Costs vary by size and number of windows, but it’s the most affordable loft conversion type — we’ll provide a clear, itemised quote.

This was the second time we worked with ICS, having completed a loft conversion with them in 2023. This time they built our kitchen extension and once again the quality of their work was extremely high.  Would not hesitate to recommend ICS or to work with them again.

We have been really very happy with ICS. The company provided a reasonable quote, detailed information on the process and was very responsive to queries. They provided an online portal which helped us to track stages of the build itself as well as finance.

ICS were such a good choice. Absolutely professional and meticulously honest from start to finish. Site manager Stas was always available to smoothly handle any issues that arose. Builders all friendly and competent. Happy with our experience and our new loft.

Adam Rasmussen

I had the pleasure of working with ICS for a series of projects on my property (SE6), including a sideways rear extension, bathroom refit, the addition of a laundry room, complete replumbing, and the removal of an old chimney. The entire crew was not only skilled but also friendly and punctual.

George Randerson

London

We recently had ICSolutions complete a loft conversion, adding two spacious bedrooms and a shower room. From start to finish, the experience was excellent. The team was professional, respectful, and a pleasure to work with. They were always prompt with their timing and kept us well-informed.

Fatima Ali

We just finished a loft conversion with ICS, and I can’t say enough good things about them. They were absolutely amazing from start to finish! Stas, the project manager, was fantastic – completely on top of everything and led the project with such competence and attention to detail.
