What goes into a mansard loft conversion?

Mansards are a bigger structural job than other conversions because the roof is largely rebuilt. They normally need planning permission, and many councils have design guides setting the angle, materials and window style. We prepare the design to those guides and build in slate, lead and timber or approved alternatives.

  • Slate cladding and lead-clad dormers
  • Staircase, insulation and fit-out
  • En-suite, electrics and fire safety

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

Welsh projects need planning clearance from the council under Welsh rules, building regulations approval under the Welsh approved documents, and party wall notices where the work affects a neighbour’s wall or foundations.

This needs full planning permission from your council in Wales.

What should I think about before starting?

  • The roof is open for longer than with a dormer, so weather protection matters.
  • Scaffolding and a temporary roof are usually needed.

How does the project run?

  1. Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
  2. We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
  3. Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
  4. Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
