What do you get with a dormer loft conversion?
A dormer loft conversion builds a box-shaped extension out from the rear slope of the roof, creating vertical walls and full head height across most of the new floor. It is the most popular type of loft conversion because it gives the most usable space for the cost.
- Planning and building control applications to the council
- Steelwork and new floor structure

Do you need permission for a dormer loft conversion in Dungannon?
Northern Ireland projects need planning clearance and building control approval from the local council. We prepare the applications and agree any work near neighbouring property directly with the neighbours.
In Northern Ireland, roof enlargements such as dormers often need planning permission depending on size and position. Building control approval is needed for every loft conversion.
What can change the price or programme?
- A flat dormer roof needs proper falls and a quality membrane.
- L-shaped dormers are common on Victorian terraces with a rear outrigger.
What are the steps?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
