Mansard loft conversions in Feltham

We take on mansard loft conversions in Feltham as a complete project: survey, drawings, planning or permitted development checks, building control and the construction itself.

Covering Feltham

Feltham sits 13 miles west of London, with Hanworth 2 miles to the south-east and Ashford 2 miles to the south-west.

Homes in London

Much of London’s housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, which is why side return extensions, rear dormers and mansards are so common. Many streets are in conservation areas, and several boroughs use Article 4 directions that remove some permitted development rights.

What is included in a mansard loft conversion in Feltham?

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.

Planning and building rules in Feltham

In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.

Mansard conversions change the shape of the roof significantly, so they usually need planning permission in England. Many councils publish guidance on mansard design.
