Since 6th April 2006, Part L1B has required SAP Extension Calculations to be carried out on every new conversion.

By upgrading or over compensating in construction of other elements, or perhaps demonstrating additional solar gains, the negative impact of larger expanses of glass can be removed.

There are further options to upgrade the existing property - especially useful if the existing dwelling is receiving a make-over too. We can guide you through all the options.
