Velux to dormer conversion cost

I’m weighing up whether the cost of converting a Velux window to a dormer makes sense for the additional space and head-height gain. What should we expect quotes to be?

"Badly worded?? A dormer window would normally be cut into the pitch of the roof which allows you to walk into the new area created? A velux roof window will follow the pitch of the roof but won’t create additional space?? More information required for sure, happy to have a look Bob"
