We assist property owners throughout Derbyshire and surrounding counties with conceptualising, designing, and constructing loft conversions tailored to their unique requirements. Whether you're interested in adding an extra bedroom, increasing storage space, or creating a home office, we're here to help turn your idea into a reality.

Our expert team can manage every part of your loft conversion - from preparing and submitting your plans to decorating the finished interior. We can be as involved as you would like, offering support only where you require it or handling the entire project.

We are located in Matlock and offer support to clients throughout Derbyshire, including the city centre and the Peak District. We also serve neighbouring counties such as Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire, and Staffordshire. As a local consultancy, we we have a comprehensive understanding of local building regulations, which can vary significantly from region to region.

Our team can assist you with every aspect of your loft conversion, whether you need support during the planning stages or someone to manage contractors. Some of our loft conversion services include:

• Obtaining Planning Permission/ Permitted Development:
• Planning Drawings and Mockups
• Fully Managed Build
• Internal Decorating

Permitted developments are property developments that do not require a full planning application due to permitted development rights. However, there are still certain approvals your build will need to go through before it can be constructed safely and legally.

Although many loft conversions will qualify for permitted development, there are specific regulations that your build will need to follow. For example, your build must be under 40 cubic metres for terraced houses and 50 cubic metres for detached and semi-detached homes.

Additionally, there are certain areas where loft conversions are not automatically accepted as permitted development, for instance, in areas with designated land (places of national, international, or local importance due to their natural or cultural significance).

Navigating these regulations alone can be complex, but we're here to assist you. We can help you decipher whether your loft conversion will qualify for permitted development or if you need to complete a planning application so your build can begin as smoothly and efficiently as possible.

A loft conversion in Derbyshire can cost anywhere from £20,000 to £150,000+. Several factors influence the cost of your renovation, including the size of your loft, your home's location, the age of your home, loft accessibility, and more. For a more accurate cost estimate tailored to your specific needs, please provide your details on our contact page, and we will be in touch shortly.

• Create Additional Living Space: A loft conversion can transform an underused space into a functional room, expanding your home without increasing its footprint.
• Increase the value of your property: A well-executed loft conversion can significantly increase the market value of your property by providing additional, usable space that is sought after by potential buyers.
• Create minimal disruption: Typically, a loft conversion can be completed in just 4-8 weeks, whereas an extension can take several months to finish. The duration of the project depends on the scope of work required, but we can give you an estimate once we have thoroughly assessed your property and plans.

Avoid planning permission: Obtaining planning permission for traditional extensions can take a lot of time and money. Loft conversions that meet the requirements for permitted development are often a more affordable and quicker option.

We have extensive experience working with property owners across Derbyshire to create stylish and functional spaces of various sizes and purposes. Our work in the local and surrounding counties has given us specialised knowledge of planning regulations in the East Midlands, enabling us to assist with a wide range of project types.
