Adding a loft conversion with a bathroom and a double bedroom typically adds around 20% to the value of a three-bed, one-bathroom property. While a loft conversion could cost you upwards of £20,000, doing so could add up to £45,000 to the value of your property.

You Need Planning Permission In Northampton

For more complex loft conversions, you will almost certainly need planning permission and a customised price but Loft Conversions Northampton can advise you further on this. Unless you live in a protected area, you probably won't need planning permission for your loft conversion if the total area of the additional space doesn't exceed 50 cubic metres and doesn't extend higher than the current highest point of the roof. Because most loft conversions are generally allowed under permitted development rights, there's no need to go through the lengthy process of obtaining planning permission.

If your conversion does need planning permission, get your application in early to avoid delaying work. If your loft doesn't have enough headroom then the roof will need to be raised or in some cases, the floor below lowered.
