Double gable loft extension
by: Christine

We also have twin gable ends and would like to do a loft extension, but to a higher single gable end.

Have you proceeded in your extension work, and if so what problems did you incur?

Answer From Our Expert
by: Jeremy Wedge

We have done this type of work before; it has been more of an issue with the planners rather than through Building Control.

The modification to the roof will require the input of an engineer in order to undertake these remodelling works.
