"Loft conversions can be done at any time of the year as long as the scaffolding has sufficient cover enclosure to prevent any bad weather from damaging your property."
Answered on 10th Nov 2020 - Member since Oct 2020 - report"Can be done at any time. Either way it is recommended the scaffold to fully cover the building to make sure the work can carry on with rain or no rain ! I’ve done 2 of them during winter season"
