Converting an existing cellar with no external changes usually does not need planning permission in England.

What can affect a basement conversion?

  • New basements nearly always involve the Party Wall Act in England and Wales.
  • A pump for the drainage system needs a battery back-up.

How does the project run?

  1. Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
  2. Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
  3. Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
  4. Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
