What is excluded from a shell loft conversion?
Typically, a shell conversion excludes internal wall insulation, plasterboard, plastering, internal doors, electrical wiring, plumbing, bathroom sanitaryware, heating, and final decoration. The exact boundary of works is agreed in writing before starting.
Is a shell conversion building-regulations compliant?
Yes, the structural works we carry out are fully inspected and certified by Building Control. The final completion certificate is issued once you or your trades finish the insulation, fire protection, and remaining internal works.
