Loft Conversions — your questions answered
Do I have enough head-height?+
You need around 2.3m at the highest point. We'll measure on the free survey and tell you straight.
Do I need planning permission?+
Most rear dormers fall under permitted development. Hip-to-gable or front dormers usually need full planning — we'll advise.
How long does it take?+
A Velux conversion: 4–6 weeks. A rear dormer with en-suite: 8–12 weeks.
