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.
- Planning application to local design guidance
- Roof removal and new mansard frame
- Slate cladding and lead-clad dormers

What approvals does a mansard loft conversion need in Northern Ireland?

This needs full planning permission from the council in Northern Ireland, plus building control approval.
What should Craigavon homeowners check first?
- The roof is open for longer than with a dormer, so weather protection matters.
- Scaffolding and a temporary roof are usually needed.
What are the steps?
- Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
- Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.

Does a mansard need planning permission?
Almost always, because it changes the roof profile.
