What goes into 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.

How is a mansard loft conversion approved in Tyldesley?

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 can affect a mansard loft conversion?

  • The roof is open for longer than with a dormer, so weather protection matters.
  • Council design guides often require natural slate and lead.
