Homes in the North West

Terraced housing is a defining feature of many North West towns, which brings party walls and narrow access into most projects, with more space to extend on suburban semis.

What do you get with 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 Fleetwood?

Projects in England go through two separate checks. Planning (or confirmation that the work is permitted development) comes from the district, borough or unitary council, and building regulations approval comes from the council’s building control team or a registered building control approver. Where work touches a shared wall or digs near a neighbour’s foundations, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies.

Mansard conversions change the shape of the roof significantly, so they usually need planning permission in England.
