Loft conversion planning drawings
A loft conversion can create valuable extra space, but the design needs to work with the existing roof, the layout of the house and the relevant planning requirements. Robert Blake Designs prepares residential planning drawings and helps homeowners understand the application route.Discuss your projectDormers and roof alterations
The drawings can show the existing roof and the proposed dormer windows, roof alterations, elevations, floor layout and relationship with neighbouring properties. The scope depends on the design and whether planning permission is required.Planning permission and lawful development
Some loft conversions may be permitted development, subject to conditions and limits. Properties in conservation areas, homes with removed permitted development rights and proposals outside the permitted limits may need a planning application. A Lawful Development Certificate can provide a formal decision on whether a proposal is lawful.Planning drawings and building regulations
Planning drawings explain the external appearance and planning proposal. Building regulations drawings address construction, fire safety, insulation, stairs and other technical requirements. Structural calculations and engineering design are not provided by Robert Blake Designs and should be obtained separately where required.How we can help
