Covering Farnborough
We work in Farnborough (GU11) and the places around it, including Camberley, Aldershot and Fleet.
Homes in the South East
Many South East homes are inter-war or post-war semis and detached houses with room for rear and side extensions, while historic town centres and villages bring conservation area and listed building controls.
What is 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.
- Roof removal and new mansard frame
- Slate cladding and lead-clad dormers
- En-suite, electrics and fire safety

Planning and building rules in Farnborough
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.
Mansard conversions change the shape of the roof significantly, so they usually need planning permission in England. Many councils publish guidance on mansard design.
What should I think about before starting?
- A mansard nearly always involves party walls on both sides of a terrace.
- Council design guides often require natural slate and lead.
What happens after I enquire?
- 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.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
