Homes in the West Midlands

The West Midlands has a large stock of 1930s semis and Victorian terraces in red brick, so matching brick and roof tiles is often the key to an extension that looks original.

What do you get with a dormer loft conversion?

Rear dormers on terraced and semi-detached houses are often permitted development in England. We size the dormer to fit the volume allowance, clad it to suit the house (tile-hanging, render, slate or zinc) and fit out the room and en-suite below.

Do you need permission for a dormer loft conversion in Nuneaton?

English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.

In England many loft conversions are permitted development: the extra roof volume must stay within 40 m³ on a terraced house or 50 m³ on a semi or detached house, nothing can sit higher than the existing ridge, no dormer can face a road on the main elevation, and side windows must be obscure-glazed and non-opening below 1.7 m.

What should I think about before starting?

A flat dormer roof needs proper falls and a quality membrane.
L-shaped dormers are common on Victorian terraces with a rear outrigger.
