On behalf of the client, chore realized a comprehensive loft conversion with extension of the existing terrace in an apartment building in Frankfurt am Main. The project involved significantly enlarging and modernizing an existing apartment by extending the attic with new dormer windows and an extended terrace.

Scope of the finishing work

Work began with the careful creation and planning of the new floor plan, making optimum use of the existing roof areas. Once the building application had been approved, the chore team carried out extensive drywall construction, interior plastering and painting work. New floor coverings were laid and sophisticated tiling work carried out to ensure a high-quality interior finish.

The technical infrastructure was brought up to date by completely renewing the sanitary and electrical installations. The installation of modern electric underfloor heating provided a particular increase in comfort. A highlight of the project was the extension of the terrace with a custom-made steel substructure, an elegant full-glass railing and high-quality decking. The installation of new window elements and external blinds ensured optimal lighting conditions and contemporary living comfort. Wall breakthroughs were made with precisely fitted steel beams to create generous room layouts.

Special challenges

The modernization presented the chore team with a variety of challenges: As an existing property and old building, the building required particular care and flexibility in all construction measures. The location on the fifth floor required well thought-out logistics for the transportation of materials and equipment.

Another special requirement was that all work had to be carried out while the apartment remained in use, as the clients lived there for the entire construction phase. This required precise partitioning of the work areas and considerate coordination of all work processes. The inner-city location with narrow streets also posed a logistical challenge for the transportation of materials and deliveries. Long-term road closures had to be organized for larger deliveries and construction work.

The result

The loft conversion led to an enormous increase in living space and a significant upgrade of the property. The newly created rooms under the roof offer additional living space with a high quality of living. The extended terrace now offers an impressive view over Frankfurt city center, creating an attractive outdoor area for the residents.
