Which rules apply in Thornaby-on-Tees?
The rules below are the England-wide position for this kind of work. Councils add their own standards and schemes on top, so we always check the address in Thornaby-on-Tees before we price.
- Floor area under a ceiling lower than 1.5 m does not count towards the room size, and many councils set larger sizes.
- National rules ask for an adequate number of bathrooms, WCs and basins and suitably located kitchens; numeric ratios are set by each council.
- A conversion can be a material change of use under the building regulations, so confirm with building control before work starts.
