Thanks to recent changes in planning regulations, more and more home improvement options are becoming easier to install without sitting through months of planning permission, which can often cost you more money than you were intending and causing you stress. However, you will be happy to hear that, on the whole, most loft conversions do not require any planning permission in order to be built.
However, that being said, it is still highly recommended that you familiarize yourself with the regulations through the UK government’s Planning Portal to make sure that you do not qualify for planning permission, as failure to obtain it when it is needed can result in issues further on down the line.
The typical price for a loft extension or conversaion tends to be around upwards of £20,000. However, it does depend on factors such as your type of house and what you want to use the room for. For example, a dormer loft conversion that features a double bedroom and an en suite can easily set you back £35,000 – £45,000.
For more information on the cost of your conversion, please speak with us and we will happily be able to talk you through the costs and your available options.
As mentioned above, planning permission is now no longer really required when having your loft converted into a room. However, there are still certain factors that have to be considered which could mean that your conversation does indeed qualify, meaning that it is still highly recommended that you familiarize yourself with the planning regulations to make sure that your loft conversion does not qualify. Failure to obtain planning permission when it is required can result in issues further down the line, which in turn can cost you more money and excess stress.
A dormer loft conversion is a loft extension that protrudes out from the pre-existing roof, often looking like a squared off extension that sits at a 90 degree angle. Your loft conversion will not require planning permission as long as it is no higher than the roof of your original properties, including any rooflights which cannot extend out more than 15cm infront of any existing slope of the roof which faces the road. For more information on the other regulations, please consult the planning regulations or contact us today.
