Loft Conversions in Portsmouth and Hampshire | Your Local Carpentry Company

Many properties across our home county of Hampshire, and especially those in the built-up Emsworth and Portsmouth areas, have a lack of space to contend with. If you are one of the many local homeowners who need added living space but feel reluctant about moving, C. Lillington Carpentry can help.

As an experienced building and carpentry company, we are skilled in loft conversions and can manage your project from design to completion. From rooflight to mansard conversions, we have an option for everyone. We also offer garage conversions.

Our Loft Conversion Service


Once your architect and surveyor have confirmed suitability for a conversion, we will perform an inspection of the current space and provide a detailed quotation of works and costings.

Should you accept our quotation, we will arrange the material deliveries and assign a start date for the job. Even trickier conversions, including those where we need to join two dormers on a flat roof, are never a problem for our builders, carpenters, joiners and wider team of tradespeople.

We provide the following:

  • Pitched Roof Dormers

  • Dormer Conversions

  • Flat Roof Dormers

  • Double-Pitched Dormers

  • Mono-Pitch Dormers

  • Low Ridge Dormers

  • Mansard Conversions

  • L-Shaped Conversions 

  • Hip-to-Gable Conversions

  • Rooflight Conversions

  • Rooflight Installation


Call C. Lillington Carpentry now to arrange a quotation.

Complete Project Management

When starting work on loft conversions in Emsworth, Portsmouth or the Hampshire area, we clear the attic space, reinforce the rafters (if required) and perform a full electrical wiring, plumbing and heating upgrade. In our capacity as carpenters and joiners, we work skilfully alongside all assigned trades to build and provide 1st- and 2nd-fix services too.

As the conversion progresses, our building and carpentry company makes improvements to the roof structure and, as the job reaches a conclusion, we also paint, decorate, lay the flooring and apply the finishing touches.

Depending on the style, your project may require planning approval and could also be subject to the Party Wall Act. On these projects, we liaise with your local authority at regular intervals to ensure compliance with the UK Building Regulations. This reduces the potential for snags at the end of the job and ensures smoother sign-off and certification.
