Loft Conversions in Balcatta
Loft conversions in Balcatta by Ashmore Carpentry, turning unused roof voids into home offices, storage rooms and extra living space with structural timber framing and access stairs.
Ashmore Carpentry carries out loft conversions across Balcatta for owners who need another room without giving up yard space. The post-war brick-and-tile homes here often have a roof void that, with the right structural timber work, can become a home office, a dust proof attic storage area or an extra living zone. Being based in Balcatta means we can climb into the roof, read the truss layout and check the ceiling joists on a short first visit. Forty plus years of combined carpentry and construction experience goes into reinforcing the floor joists, framing the partition walls and setting the access stairs or pull down ladder, so the finished loft is solid and safe to use.
A loft conversion in a Balcatta home is about making the roof void earn its keep, and our carpenters handle the structural framing, access and finishing. Read about our full loft conversion service in Perth.
OUR PROCESS.
Roof Void Inspection
We climb into your Balcatta roof to read the truss type, measure the existing joists and check the ceiling height, then talk through whether you want a full room or a storage area.
Structural Quote
Our written quote sets out the floor joists, subflooring, access stairs or ladder, wall framing and any electrician or plasterer your Balcatta loft needs, all in the one figure.
Build and Clean Handover
We lay drop sheets below the ceiling opening before the first cut, build the framing through to the finish, and close each afternoon with 30 minutes of vacuuming downstairs.
