Frequently Asked Questions

About Bristol loft conversions.

Loft Conversion depends on 5 factors:

  1. Available head height
  2. The pitch of the roof
  3. Type of roof structure
  4. Are there any chimney stacks or water tanks in the loft?
  5. What’s the space available for the staircase?

Listed building require specific listed building consent, and those living in a conservation area, area of outstanding natural beauty or national part will generally need to apply for planning permission.

As long as the following conditions are met, you generally shouldn’t need planning permission:

  1. Total roof extensions, past and present, do not exceed 40m³ for terraced houses or 50m³ for semi-detached or fully detached home
  2. The extension does not go beyond the roof slope facing the highway
  3. No part of the new extension reaches higher than the existing roof
  4. There are no raised platforms or balconies
  5. Materials used are closest to or exact matches to the original house
  6. Any extensions do not overhang the outer face of the house

In the UK, there are 5 main loft conversion types. Depending on the existing structure and shape of your roof should define which conversion you opt for.

  1. Dormer Loft Conversion
    Flat roofed and protruding out from the existing roof. Dormer loft conversions are a simple and cost effective method of gaining more space.
  2. Mansard Loft Conversion
    Mansard Lofts involve altering the roof structure of a sloped roof to a near vertical posture. The remaining roof remains flat. Common among terraced houses and spanning gable to gable.
  3. Roof Lighting
    The simplest of loft conversions employs turning part of the roof into a window and reinforcing flooring. Electronics and plumbing can be added to make the area habitable.
  4. Hip to Gable Conversion
    Turning a bungalow or semi-detached house loft into a useable room by straightening slanted end of the roof into a vertical wall, providing good internal space with full head room.
  5. Modular Conversions
    Assembled off-site, ready made conversions involve a steel frame being craned into position
