Light, Space, and Living

Planning Made Simple

Many lofts can be built using Permitted Development rights, avoiding the need for a planning application. For larger loft conversions or extensions, flats and extensions in Conservation Areas, full planning permission is a must. At CATO Creative, we have a 100% success rate in securing planning or permitted development approval. We manage the entire process from drawings, applications and coordination with local authorities, ensuring everything is correct first time. This avoids the costly redesigns, refusals or months of delay that often derail projects when planning is mishandled.

Design by Architects, Built by Specialists

There are many ways to extend a loft. We believe the most successful loft extensions happen when each stage is handled by the right team. Builders and loft extension companies are great at building loft extensions. The right choice can mean a fast, hassle-free, quality build. At the same time, they are not necessarily great at pushing boundaries, designing or specifying what goes in. That’s where we come in.

We design loft conversions and loft extensions that maximise light, space and storage, while integrating functional requirements such as ventilation and climate control. This prevents the common mistakes of poorly planned extensions such as small rooms, awkward layouts, wasted space or expensive retrofits. By working with experienced builders, we make sure our clients get the best of both worlds: brilliant design, high-quality construction and seamless coordination.

A loft extension is one of the most cost-effective ways to add living space and value to your home. These extensions offer flexible use and are often quicker, cheaper and less disruptive than other extensions, gaining space without sacrificing your garden. So if you are planning for additional bedrooms, a bathroom, a home office or all of them combined, CATO Creative can help you transform an unused roof into a bright, functional loft space to suit how you live.

Designing Spaces Around the Way You Live

From complete open-plan transformations to carefully zoned, intimate rooms, we design homes that balance beautiful finishing with practical solutions and individual touches. Extensions are shaped around your lifestyle, ensuring the investment adds value both to how you live and to the property itself.

Layouts maximise space, storage and flow. Internal glazing & zoning create connection with separation, encouraging family life together, while still providing space for privacy or quiet. Skylights, windows and doors are located and specified to connect inside and out, flooding spaces with natural light. Materials are chosen to suit your needs, style and budget.

Full Design and Project Coordination

Following the RIBA Plan of Works approach, CATO creative can design, specify and coordinate every project stage for loft extensions so the process is clear and as stress-free as it can be. This includes concept, developed and technical design, producing and submitting all the planning and statutory approvals, specifying all the furniture, fittings and equipment, completing the tender and coordinating everybody during the build. We take care of the details so our clients can focus on life and the enjoyment of their new space.

When come to construction, we bring in and coordinate al specialist consultants such as structural engineers, waterproofing experts, and M&E designers. We then complete the competitive tender, before working closely with the contractors and suppliers to make sure the build runs smoothly and to the highest standard
