▶︎ Hip to Gable and Hip End
Hip to Gable & Hip End Conversions are for properties with a sloping side roof, which means that the side of your roof slopes inwards towards the ridge/chimney.
A hip-to-gable style conversion would change the shape of the roof by extending the existing the ridge and giving you a much larger loft area.
The new gable is generally built from timber and normally finished in hanging tiles to match the existing roof, a new section of roof is built to fill in the area. Generally houses with hip roofs do not tend to not have enough internal volume over their existing stairs, so a Hip to Gable is constructed to carry a new staircase.
