What are some attic and loft conversion ideas?

Attics and loft spaces often have an A-frame or some degree of pitch and in older homes, you may come across brick walls. Instead of covering up or trying to hide these architectural quirks, embrace the original features and use them as anchors for the design. Timber and steel support beams lend themselves effortlessly to industrial and rustic styles but can easily be painted or stained to blend with any interior. Exposed elements such as brick or concrete can be modernised or enhanced to bring character into the space.

How much does an attic or loft conversion cost in Geelong?

Do you need a building permit for an attic or loft conversion?

According to the Geelong city council, “building permits are required for almost all new buildings, alterations, demolition, and change of use” so it’s highly likely that your attic or loft conversion will need approval. But not to worry, your Renovation Consultant will arrange for any applications and permitting to be taken care of prior to building commencement.
