Covering Nuneaton
We work in Nuneaton (CV11) and the places around it, including Bedworth, Hinckley and Coventry.
Homes in the West Midlands
Across the West Midlands, terraced and semi-detached houses in red brick are typical, along with post-war estates where garage conversions and side extensions are popular.
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.
- Planning application to local design guidance
- Structural design and party wall process
- Roof removal and new mansard frame

Planning and building rules in Nuneaton
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?
- The roof is open for longer than with a dormer, so weather protection matters.
- Scaffolding and a temporary roof are usually needed.
How does the project run?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- 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.
What people ask before starting
Does a mansard need planning permission?
Almost always, because it changes the roof profile.
Why choose a mansard over a dormer?
A mansard gives more usable space and often fits a street better where neighbours already have one.
