Having a few companies around to quote for what we hope will be a simple loft converstion... I say 'simple' because we don't want anything other than a habitable space and more naturallight on the stairs +storage, but probably not that simple.
Anyway - what I'm getting confused about is whether or not we need to have our ceiling lowered to create this space. the loft currently measures 2.19m at the highest point from bottom of floor joists.
Is there a way to avoid lowering the ceiling by using thinner steel beams when the floor joists are reinforced? Is this an ok thing?
