Loft Conversion
Acute Homes designs and builds premium loft conversions across Abingdon, Oxford and surrounding towns. We handle structural steel, roof alterations, insulation, Velux roof windows and bespoke joinery to create additional living space with a refined finish. Projects include en‑suite plumbing, heating and electrics, all delivered with building regs paperwork and clear communication. Expect tidy sites, considerate trades and a handover ready for modern family life.
— Our Process
How It Works
Site survey & feasibility
A qualified surveyor inspects roof structure, headroom and headers, checks party‑wall and conservation area constraints, and confirms what conversion type suits your property.
Design, approvals & engineering
We produce CAD plans, coordinate structural engineer drawings and submit building‑reg applications or planning where required, including Velux layout and rooflight specification.
Build, finish & handover
Acute Homes manages all trades - structural works, insulation, M&E, joinery and tiling - with snagging, building‑control sign‑off and compliance documentation supplied on completion.

Why Choose Us?
High‑end finishes every time
Walnut staircases, flush joinery, acoustic insulation and precision plastering give a refined interior that sits comfortably in period terraces and contemporary lofts alike.
Regulated, accredited team
TrustMark approved, Which Trusted Trader for over 10 years, CHAS, SSIP and Velux certified - we deliver installations that meet building regs and client audit requirements.
Local knowledge, minimal disruption
Based in Oxfordshire, we understand Victorian terraces, Oxford conservation areas and access constraints; site logistics and protective measures keep disruption to a minimum.
Design that fits the house. Whether it’s a dormer for extra headroom, hip‑to‑gable to open the plan, or a lightweight mansard for maximum floor area, Acute Homes tailors the solution to your property. We coordinate structural steel installation, remove or modify chimneys, upgrade roof membranes and specify high‑performance insulation to meet Part L. All rooflights are fitted by a Velux certified installer and windows/glazed elements meet FENSA standards where applicable.
Complete, tidy project delivery. Projects include new staircases, bespoke fitted wardrobes, en‑suite bathrooms with underfloor heating options, LED downlights and smart heating controls. We prepare full method statements and RAMS for commercial clients and building‑control packs for domestic jobs. If your project touches common walls we manage the Party Wall process, and for final handover we supply the necessary compliance paperwork — including any fire‑safety hardware supplied by our fire‑door specialists where required.

Frequently Asked Questions
Many loft conversions fall under permitted development, but limitations apply in conservation areas and on certain Victorian terraces. We carry out a site assessment and advise whether planning is needed, preparing and submitting applications when required.
