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.
- Planning application to local design guidance
- Slate cladding and lead-clad dormers
- Staircase, insulation and fit-out
What will a mansard loft conversion cost?

How is a mansard loft conversion approved in Hornsea?
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.
What can affect a mansard loft conversion?
- Council design guides often require natural slate and lead.
- Scaffolding and a temporary roof are usually needed.
