Services
Loft Conversions
Transform unused loft space into functional rooms like bedrooms, bathrooms, or offices. We use Velux windows, dormer additions, and truss modifications to maximise headroom and light. Our process includes structural calculations, planning permissions, and full building control compliance. Clients benefit from increased property value and tailored designs that meet their family's needs.
Garage Conversions
Repurpose underutilised garages into living spaces such as kitchens, playrooms, or home cinemas. We handle insulation, electrical upgrades, and planning requirements to ensure compliance. This service adds up to 17,000 in property value while providing flexible, cost-effective solutions for expanding living areas without moving home.
House Extensions
Create additional space with single or double-storey extensions tailored to your lifestyle. We manage architectural design, planning permissions, and full construction, focusing on seamless integration with existing structures. Clients gain functional spaces like kitchen-diners or utility rooms while maintaining aesthetic coherence and property integrity.
Architectural Design
Develop customised plans for conversions and extensions, including 3D visualisations and structural calculations. Our architects ensure compliance with local regulations and building standards. Clients receive detailed blueprints and guidance to visualise projects before construction, minimising delays and ensuring accurate budgeting.
Building Control Liaison
Navigate legal requirements through certified building control submissions and inspections. We coordinate with local authorities to ensure all work meets safety and energy efficiency standards. Clients benefit from stress-free compliance, avoiding penalties and ensuring their projects pass final inspections without delays.
