I'm looking to do a dormer loft conversion but to keep costs down I would like to get a shell conversion.
I live in a conservation area so planning permission is likely to be needed.
The house is a 3 bedroom end terrace and there is approximately 2.24m between top of ceiling joist and bottom of ridge board.
So the questions I have are:-
Is the 2.24m height sufficient for conversion or would ceiling need to be lowered?
What would be a realistic budget for a shell dormer conversion?
What sort of timescale would it be?
Is it more cost effective to get plans and calculations done and then find somebody to do work or use a company that does all parts.
Any tips and advice appreciated.
Thanks
Jason
