A Brief Guide to Loft Conversions
Loft Suitability
For a loft conversion to be feasible, the head height, pitch angle and roof structure of your property will need to be assessed. Most properties are suitable for loft conversions, as long as the useable part of the roof has a head height that measures 2.3m or more. Your loft will also need to be checked for any obstacles, such as water tanks and chimney stacks.
Planning Permission
For property owners in Ilford, Essex, London and the rest of the UK, planning permission is often not required for loft conversions. However, if you do need to obtain planning permission from your local authority, we can help. It is normally only required if you plan to extend/alter the roof space more than the standard allowance or if your property is in a conservation area.
Building Regulations
Please note, Building Regulations approval is always required regardless of whether or not your loft conversion needs planning permission. This is to prove the work complies with the latest fire and building regulations. You can rest assured loft conversions completed by our experienced team will always meet the highest regulation standards of safety and quality.
Loft Conversion Styles
At Ideal Design & Build Ltd, our specialists can help you decide which loft conversion type best suits the style of your property, your requirements and your budget. There are four main types of loft conversions known as Dormer, Mansard, Hip-to-Fable and Velux. Each varies in complexity, depending on their size and if any structural alterations are needed.
