Loft Dormer Cladding

[Pheo]

Hi All,

 

we are doing a loft conversion under PD.  It’s relatively visible on the street scene due to its location on the road (next to a T junction)

 

Obviously we have the condition of similar in appearance to existing dwelling house.  We have a rendered front bay, brick construction elsewhere and redland 49 concrete tiles which would have been red when new, but are now grey / black with a hint of red.

 

Because of the shape of the dormer, it’s not possible to do tiles because they won’t be hangable.  So we have gone for render.  I think this is ok as long as the colour is matched to the roof, as it’s similar in appearance but not the same

materials.

 

I did check with a planning consultant and they agreed that given the front bay is rendered, and this condition this should be ok but I’m getting cold feet again.

 

Interested to see others thoughts.
