Rooftop Rooms is based in Enfield, and we frequently work on projects in North and East London, Hertfordshire and Essex.
What is a Hip to Gable Loft Conversion?
By extending the sloping side of a hip roof (typically on the unattached side of a semi-detached or end-terrace property) to form a vertical gable wall, homeowners gain more full-height space, making it ideal for creating larger rooms.
The Process
At Rooftop Rooms, detail dictates our conversion process. We take every client through from start to finish, through conception and design to completion and signoff.
Initial Consultation
After you first speak to us, we can carry out the initial consultation stages. We will take any measurements that we need, and gain the best understanding of your unique situation. At this point, we can answer any questions you might have, and provide expert guidance.

Our architects will provide you with detailed plans as well as full costings and your quotation. We can make amendments at this stage, and with a plan you are happy with, we can agree on a contract and a start date. Our project coordinator can arrange all necessary planning permissions.
Benefits of a Hip-to-Gable Loft Conversion
This type of conversion is seen in semi-detached, detached and end of terrace properties it is commonly combined with a rear dormer to further enhance the loft’s functionality and useable space. The result is a spacious, versatile area that can serve as a bedroom, office, or even a playroom. It’s a popular choice among homeowners looking to increase their property’s value and utility without expanding the footprint. Some of the benefits, though, are more obvious than others:
- Extra Space: Naturally, the most common factor in choosing a hip-to-gable loft conversion is the increased living space. Extending the roofline takes space that would otherwise be underutilised and makes it usable.
- Added Property Value: Loft conversions are always big investments, but hip-to-gable conversions can increase your home’s value by as much as 20%. If you eventually choose to move home, you will still get the investment back on the sale.
- Energy-Saving: A loft conversion is also a good opportunity to upgrade your home’s insulation. Alongside double-glazed windows and even solar panels, hip-to-gable conversions can save you hundreds of pounds a year on your energy bills.
