Start with the roof and the stair
For a loft in Ruislip, think about the stair and the roof as one design problem. The room may be intended for guests, everyday sleeping or work, but it must connect sensibly with the floor below. Record where the present landing ends and any cupboards or doors beside it. If you are considering changes to the roof appearance, bring safe photographs from the front and rear of the property. Treat images of other lofts as references for use or atmosphere rather than evidence of available space in your own roof.
Choose the scope for your Ruislip 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 Ruislip
Hillingdon provides a specific Ruislip Village conservation leaflet and boundary information. It is a guide to that designated area, not to every Ruislip property.
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.

See the illustration and creditPrepare for the first conversation
Bring a landing sketch, safe roof photos and the intended room use. Note storage you want to retain below or within the new roof room, and identify any bathroom requirement from the outset.
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.
What roof photographs are useful for a Ruislip enquiry?
Safe views of the front and rear can help explain the existing roof. Also include the landing below or any available drawings; do not climb onto the roof to obtain images.
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.
