What is a mansard loft conversion?
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.
- Structural design and party wall process
- Slate cladding and lead-clad dormers
- En-suite, electrics and fire safety

Planning and building rules in Hull
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.
What should I think about before starting?
- A mansard nearly always involves party walls on both sides of a terrace.
- Scaffolding and a temporary roof are usually needed.
How does the project run?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
Your questions answered
Why choose a mansard over a dormer?
A mansard gives more usable space and often fits a street better where neighbours already have one.
Will I need party wall agreements?
Very likely, as the work affects the walls shared with both neighbours on a terrace.
How do I get a price for mansard loft conversions in Hull?
Use the guide price tool for a ballpark figure, then book a visit for a fixed written price for the agreed specification.
