FAQ's - ATTIC
Is my ATTIC convertible?
If you can stand up in your attic and still have some room above your head to the highest point about 7 foot, a conversion can be carried out.
What kind of conversion can I have?
There are two types:
- Dormer: produce extra space for the room or stairs.
- Velux: for minor conversions where there is already adequate headroom.
What planning permission is required?
In all cases building regulation approval is required, gp projects can help for this process on behalf of the client.
What are the building regulations?
The building regulations set standards for the design and construction of buildings, primarily to ensure the safety and health for people in or around those buildings, but also for energy conservation and access to and about buildings.
What do I need to do?
In brief - nothing. GP Projects will deal everything on your behalf.
Do I need to sort out other trades like electricians, plumbers etc.?
GP Projects team is covering all trades to take your conversion from initial design through to completion.
Will there be much disruption?
GP Projects access the attic via the scaffolding on the outside of the property and builds the conversion to a near finished stage. Generally 2 to 3 weeks access via the scaffolding and the last week we will need to access the conversion via the existing stairs / hallway.
