Alterations and roof-space consent

Separate consent, property rights, fees and other approvals before judging the request.

A roof, loft, structure or airspace question may involve a lease In plain EnglishA binding promise in the lease to do something, pay something or not do something.Open the plain-English glossary, a new property right, professional costs and non-lease approvals. This page keeps those questions separate and does not decide whether a premium is fair.

How it works

The whole task, before you start entering details.

Use the five stages in order. You can move back at any point when a missing document or fact changes the position.

  1. 01State the situation

    Say what has happened without deciding the legal answer.

  2. 02Gather the evidence

    Mark what you have and keep every missing item visible.

  3. 03Ask one question

    Build a focused LEASE-iQ® question from the facts supplied.

  4. 04Check the answer

    Open the lease pages and current sources behind each point.

  5. 05Take the next action

    Resolve what you can and hand off what still needs judgment.

How this page helpsShared evidence before a decision

Step 1

Describe the situation without deciding the answer.

If the selected lease does not match the property, floor or role, this page must stop before analysing the lease.

Nothing entered here is uploaded or sent.

The preview uses the information only in this browser tab to prepare a LEASE-iQ question. Do not enter names, addresses, title numbers or personal information.

Step 2

Tick the documents and facts you have. Leave anything you do not know blank.

The answer must show what was reviewed, what was missing and what could reverse the result.

Step 3

Ask LEASE-iQ one focused question.

The prompt keeps lease facts, current law, missing evidence, interpretation and next action separate.

Step 4

Check each part of the answer separately.

Fluent prose is not enough. Each material proposition needs its source and status.

Bring the answer back

Paste the LEASE-iQ output here.

Nothing pasted here is saved or sent by this website. Use it only to check the answer against the source and decide the next safe action.

01

Lease

Clause, schedule, page, short wording and the party role established by the reviewed document.

02

Current law

Jurisdiction, exact provision, in-force status, effective date, official URL and last verification date.

03

Missing evidence

Documents, facts, roles or building-wide information that the reviewed set does not establish.

04

Interpretation

Supported reading, strongest credible countercase and the basis for confidence or uncertainty.

05

Next action

The safe document request and the focused professional question, where professional judgment is genuinely needed.

06

Release status

Supported, partly supported, ambiguous, held or professional judgment required.

Step 5

Decide what you can do now and what still needs help.

Ask for the legal basis, proposed instrument, charge breakdown and valuation evidence before deciding whether a specialist is needed.
