Do I need planning permission for a loft conversion?

Most loft conversions fall under permitted development rights and don't require planning permission, provided they meet certain criteria. However, dormer and mansard conversions often require permission. We handle all necessary applications and ensure compliance with regulations.

How much does a loft conversion cost?

Will my loft be suitable for conversion?

Can I add a bathroom to my loft conversion?
