What goes into a mansard loft conversion?

A mansard loft conversion replaces one or both slopes of a roof with a near-vertical wall, typically at 70 degrees, with small dormer windows set into it. It creates almost a full extra storey and is common on terraced houses in towns and cities, particularly in London.

Do you need permission for a mansard loft conversion in Annan?

In Scotland the key step is the building warrant, which must be granted before work begins. Planning permission is decided separately by the council, and work on shared walls is handled under your title deeds rather than a party wall act.

This needs planning permission and a building warrant from your council in Scotland before work starts.

What should I think about before starting?

The roof is open for longer than with a dormer, so weather protection matters.
Council design guides often require natural slate and lead.
