Roofline conversion or Dormer roof conversion?

A dormer coversion has been referred to in many different ways, dormer roof, dormer extensions, roof extensions, loft extensions, attic conversion. A brief description of a Dormer would be an extension of an existing roof shape. Dormer windows extend out of the original roof and are a way of adding headroom. Dormer windows can be the size of a single window or they can span a sizeable chunk of the roof and contain two or more windows. A Dormer roof is an alternative to a roofline conversion.

Dormer Roof Conversion

Consider a most typical terraced property/town house where the roof would start at the gutters at the front of the house rising to the Apex, the ridge in the centre of the house, then falling again down to the gutters at the back of the house. This most typical roof shape does not usually produce a substantial habitable room, unless the house is unusually large. So with this type of roof structure, it would be advisable to extend the roof and create a Dormer roof (usually to the rear of the property). The size, shape and general design of this or any other Dormer roof an vary greatly.
