Council Permissions
 

Do I need Council Permission?
As part of our service as a Design & Build Loft Specialist we provide Architectural Drawings and Engineering Calculations for each project. We submit these to your Individual Council to gain the necessary approvals.
         
We can also provide a ‘standalone’ plans only service for people who wish to have a specialist loft conversion company dealing with a specialist area.
         
Generally
All Loft Conversions of whatever size, style or complexity require Building Regulations Approval.
         
Some Loft Conversions require formal planning permission, our designer will advise – they will also advise on what scheme is most likely to be successful – as a specialist in the field, we have a great deal of experience with most local authorities and local planning policy and knowledge relevant to Loft Conversions within London.
         
Where Loft Conversions do not require formal planning permission by definition they must be permitted development A Certificate of LD will be applied for by formally requesting that the Local Authority accepts that the volume taken up by any extensions to the roof do not exceed the Permitted Development volume available to your home.
