How much does a loft conversion cost in Edinburgh?
For a loft conversion in Edinburgh, a realistic budget is around £23,000–£54,500. Scottish costs generally sit below the UK average — Midlothian labour and materials are a real factor. Expect conversion type (Velux, dormer, hip-to-gable, mansard) and adding an ensuite or extra glazing to move the price most, along with staircase position and structural work. Getting two or three quotes is the best way to see a fair local price, which is exactly what our free matching service arranges.
Figures are a 2025 guide only — your matched installer will give you an accurate, no-obligation quote.
How long does it take?
On site, a loft conversion in Edinburgh generally runs to 6–10 weeks.
- Plan the staircase. Access takes space from the floor below — design it in early.
- Consider building regs. Fire safety, insulation and stairs must meet regulations.
- Budget for a contingency. Older roofs can hold surprises — keep 10–15% in reserve.
