Frequently Asked Questions
-
In many cases, loft conversions fall under permitted development rights and don't require planning permission. However, this depends on factors such as the type of conversion, your property type, and whether you live in a conservation area. We'll advise you on the necessary permissions during our initial consultation.
-
A typical loft conversion takes between 6-8 weeks to complete, depending on the complexity and size of the project. Dormer and hip-to-gable conversions may take slightly longer than simpler Velux conversions. We'll provide you with a detailed timeline as part of our project plan.
-
Most lofts are suitable for conversion, but key factors include head height (ideally 2.2m from floor to ridge), the pitch of the roof, and the type of roof structure. We offer a free assessment to determine your loft's suitability and advise on the best conversion type for your home.
