Loft Conversions & Extension Specialists

Flats, Maisonettes, Conservation Areas

If you live in a conservation area, planing permission will be required. In these cases we would have to to submit drawing to the local council for approval, so it pays to use a company that knows all the local councils and what they allow, because be assured, they are all different. Our design design team will deal with the drawings & planning application There aren't many problems when it comes to getting planning permission and keeping within the councils requirement. Planning permission normally takes eight weeks, we can then normally start projects as soon as we have the approval, if the customer is ready to get started at this stage.

Mansards Conversions

Here we have mansard conversions. They have one large bedroom, with a shower room. With the mansard we built up the side party walls using matching London Stock type bricks. It allows for the full width extension of your home to be utilised

Mansards are accepted by some councils via planning permission and some council don’t, we will let you know what you local council’s planning requirements are. The mansard is an attractive addition to most Edwardian and Victoria houses, as they have a rear 70 degree angle rear slope.

Dormers for conservation areas

Dormers in conservation areas tend to be smaller and not full width or full depth. These examples will show this. Some dormers exteriors are required to be clad lead to give an in keeping attractive more traditional finish on the outside.

Although the space is reduced, you will find that it is still possible to fit a new double bedroom & shower room into the loft space. Here, with two rear small dormers, we can fit in a bedroom & shower room.

An alternative might have been a large bedroom with a luxurious en suite shower room for the best ever guest accommodation – though you might easily decide to use the room yourself. As always the choice us yours. We will be able to help you decide what is best for you will the help of architect and our knowledge of your local area

Town house - London roof double mansards

This is one of our favourites because what we produce so often exceeds the expectations of our clients and produces virtually a complete new level, virtually the same size as levels of the property below, with the potential for one or two bedrooms and a shower room.

These conversions always require planning permission as the front as well of the rear of the property is changed at the roof level, so the project can be seen from the street at the front
