Loft conversions
A loft conversion turns unused roof space into a bedroom, en-suite or home office. With rooflights or a dormer, it can add a full extra room without touching the garden.

FAQs
Loft conversions: your questions
Can’t see your question? Call us on 01480 272 600 or send us a message.
Do loft conversions need planning permission?
Many don’t, if they stay within permitted development volume limits and don’t extend beyond the front roof slope. Front dormers and homes in conservation areas usually need permission.
Is my loft suitable for conversion?
It depends mainly on head height, roof structure and where a staircase can go. We’ll take a look during a free site visit.
