Is your loft feasible?
|
Some roof spaces are more easily converted than others and a full assessment requires professional help. But the untrained eye can often work out the basics.
Go up into your loft space and take a look around. Is there enough headroom at the centre under the ridge?
|
You ideally need 8ft (2.4m) clearance, although you may find that you can still get a useful room from as little as 7ft. A quick check with a tape measure will suffice.
Also try to assess whether your roof was built using trussed rafters or purlins, as the latter is much easier to convert into usable loftspace.
