DOMESTIC ENGINEERING

Loft Conversions

It is often a prerequisite of a loft conversion to obtain structural design calculations for any proposed changes or additions to the structure of the roof. Although, in some instances, planning permission is not required, structural details are often directly requested by local authorities in order to gain Building Regulation Approval. Having completed numerous loft conversions we are able to deliver efficient and practical solutions.

The process of converting a loft for domestic use relies heavily on the input and specialist knowledge of a structural engineer. In a typical loft conversion an architect will work up a design but will be unable to complete the project without specific consultation with an engineer. Our design package will complement that of an architect with respect to the overall success of a loft conversion project.
