Lana Hughes
We were delighted when SmartHouse Extension team suggested design ideas that improved the look and function of the space that we had not even contemplated! The process was open and flexible with ample opportunity to discuss and change details so that we ended up with something we were really pleased with. The result is a design that is attractive and functional and will really change the way we use our home. Thank you. More...

How can someone tell if their loft is suitable for conversion?
A loft conversion for your house is considered to be permitted development, not requiring an application for planning permission, subject to the following limits and conditions:
A volume allowance of 40 cubic metres additional roof space for terraced houses*
A volume allowance of 50 cubic metres additional roof space for detached and semi-detached houses*
No extension beyond the plane of the existing roof slope of the principal elevation that fronts the highway
No extension to be higher than the highest part of the roof
Materials to be similar in appearance to the existing house
No verandas, balconies or raised platforms
Side-facing windows to be obscure-glazed; any opening to be 1.7m above the floor
Roof extensions not to be permitted development in designated areas**
Roof extensions, apart from hip to gable ones, to be set back, as far as practicable, at least 20cm from the original eaves
The roof enlargement cannot overhang the outer face of the wall of the original house.
