Frequently asked questions
Do I need planning permission to convert my loft?Most loft conversions do not require planning permission. In most cases a loft conversion can be converted under permitted development guide lines.
Do I need detailed plans when converting my loft?
Yes, converting your loft involves many structural changes. A detailed drawing is required to ensure it complies with strict building regulations.
Can my loft be converted?
The main thing to check is whether your loft has enough height. From inside yourl loft, measure from the highest point to the lowest point. This should be no less than 2.3 metres. This is the minimum requirement, but if your property is detached, the ridge of the roof can be raised to create a larger roof space.
I have a modern truss roof; can I still have a loft conversion?
Yes, some of our largest conversions have been truss roofs.
How long will it take to complete my loft conversion?
Every loft is different varying in size and complexity, but generally the construction takes between four to six weeks.
Will there be any storage space left after the conversion is completed?
This depends on your loft but normally you will have access to void areas in the eaves enabling some storage space.
