If you’re looking to increase your living space, a loft conversion or a house extension can be an excellent choice. Each offers distinct advantages in layout and construction, depending on your needs and property type. In this section, our experienced house builders at Pro Build Leicester explore both options and outline their key benefits. We also carry out house refurbishments, barn conversions, and a variety of other home improvement services across Leicestershire.
Conversions make the most of areas within your home that are currently unused or overlooked. By transforming spaces such as barns, garages, or lofts, you can add valuable living space without significantly changing the exterior appearance of your property.
Extensions, by contrast, require new construction that expands the footprint of your home and alters its exterior design. Common examples include side-return and rear extensions, which make practical use of narrow passageways or large garden areas to create valuable additional living space.
Because much of the existing structure is already built, loft and garage conversions can be completed more quickly and cost-effectively than many other types of home improvement. With less structural work required, they often deliver excellent value for money while adding useful living space.
Extensions generally involve greater expense because they require extra materials, structural alterations, and, in some cases, planning approval. The build process also tends to take longer, and progress can occasionally be affected by weather conditions.
Any type of home improvement or new construction can positively influence your property’s market value. At Pro Build Leicester, our builders are recognised for their precision and craftsmanship — qualities that help your home stand out from the rest.
Our bespoke barn conversions and stylish mansard loft conversions are especially popular, reflecting our growing reputation across Leicestershire for creative, high-quality work.
House extensions also add value by enhancing both the appearance and functionality of your living space — even a modest addition can have a noticeable impact.
For homeowners who prefer not to make major structural changes, we provide a variety of kitchen and bathroom refurbishments, along with essential upgrades such as modern electrical, plumbing, and heating installations.
