Loft Conversions in Northwood
Explore the room you want to create in your roof space, with the structure, headroom and staircase considered together. Tell Falcon what you want to change in your Northwood home.

Start with the roof and the stair
Before describing a Northwood loft design, make clear whether the roof space belongs to the house you occupy or sits above a flat or maisonette. Share the documents you hold and identify any ownership or permission question that is unresolved. Then explain the intended room and how a stair might connect to the accommodation below. The presence of a loft hatch is not evidence of a right to convert the roof. Falcon can discuss the building scope once the property circumstances are clear, with suitability and formal design considered for that particular proposal.
Choose the scope for your Northwood home
Compare dormer, hip-to-gable, mansard and rooflight options against the actual roof, stair and room requirements. Suitability and the agreed scope depend on the property assessment.
Dormer loft conversions
Consider usable space alongside the shape of the roof
Hip-to-gable loft conversions
Assess the hipped roof and the room it could contain
Mansard loft conversions
Treat the roof alteration as a complete design decision
Rooflight loft conversions
Test the existing roof space before choosing roof windows
A property check in Northwood
Hillingdon's appraisal describes The Glen in Northwood as a planned group of maisonettes. That specific estate illustrates why property type matters; it does not describe all Northwood homes.
Include the existing roof and any proposed external changes in the design discussion. Check the property-specific position before relying on an example from the same street.

Identify the property type and whether the roof-space ownership is clear. Gather existing plans and relevant documents before discussing the room, stair and any external changes in detail.
If drawings are needed, Falcon can arrange formal design and planning support through our partner and coordinate this with the build. Our practical advice on layouts and finishes is separate from that professional work. The scope and fees are agreed for your project.
Follow the project processWhat Falcon supplies and what you choose
Falcon supplies agreed first-fix materials and carries out the agreed building and fitting work. You buy the agreed second-fix items with our guidance; Falcon fits the items included in your scope.
Discuss finish choices and any bathroom fittings with the building scope. Buying an item and including its installation in the project are separate decisions.
Does a loft hatch establish that I can convert the space?
No. Explain the ownership and access arrangements and share the documents you hold. Rights, permissions and physical suitability need to be understood separately.
Can you price the work from this page?
Request a Quote for your own project. The scope, existing property and chosen items need to be understood before the price and inclusions can be explained.
Can I use drawings I already have?
Tell us what drawings and decisions are available and whether the design has changed since they were prepared. Falcon can discuss the building work against them and identify where further professional input needs to be arranged.
