Loft Conversion FAQ
Here are some of the most common questions we get asked about loft extensions by customers in Eastleigh:
Not all loft extensions require input from an architect, however to ensure you don’t violate any building regulations it is recommended your plans are checked.
Our extensive experience converting lofts means we can highlight any building regulations that may require extra investigation.
Detached properties generally don’t need any direct permission from a neighbour. However, semi-detached or terraced properties often need a ‘party wall agreement’ if changes will impact the joining wall.
If your loft amendments require planning permission, neighbours can have a chance to comment on the plans. If enough neighbours see issues where the loft conversion might interfere with their own property, then you may need to take extra steps to placate their requirements.
The price for a new loft room installation in Eastleigh depends on a number of factors:
- The size of your loft
- the age of the property
- The type of alterations requested
- How easy the roof is to access
- Local council restrictions
- Whether your property is detached
- Plumbing & drainage requirements
- Many other factors….
Prices for loft conversions can vary a great deal when the above information is taken into account.
We recommend arranging a free no-obligation survey of your property. We can then put together the best, most accurate quote.
You do not generally need planning permission if your loft alterations only include remodelling of the interior space. However new dormer windows or amendments to the external shape of the roof, are likely to require planning permission.
For an accurate answer, speak to your Hampshire local authority planning department.
