    The planning dept will want to check it over when finished and they will decide whether it meets specs or not. If you're intending to sell house with it as extra bedroom then it would need insulation and a door and other stuff. Maybe you could find a book or plans on Amazon ??

    Next door but two neighbour had builders in to do conversion and then it was declared unfit for human habitation by local council which annoyed her no end.

    No they won't. Building regs has nothing to do with planning permission. If PP is required then consent must be obtained before work commences.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
