Covering Aldershot
We work in Aldershot (GU12) and the places around it, including Farnham, Farnborough and Fleet.
Homes in the South East
The South East has a lot of 1930s and post-war semi-detached housing, well suited to rear extensions and hip-to-gable loft conversions, alongside period properties in conservation areas that need a more careful design.
What is included in a house-to-flat conversion in Aldershot?
We assess the house against the council’s policies on flat sizes, parking, bins and cycle storage before any design work, then design layouts to the space standards your council uses. On site the critical work is fire separation, sound insulation between floors, separate services and meters, and protected escape routes.
- Feasibility check against local planning policy
- Separate electrics, heating and metering
- Kitchens, bathrooms and finishes
What will a house-to-flat conversion cost?
Indicative costs for house-to-flat conversions. London and the South East usually sit towards the top of each range.
Priced on survey.
Planning and building rules in Aldershot
In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.
Dividing a house into flats always needs planning permission in England.
What should I think about before starting?
- Some councils restrict the loss of family houses or limit flat conversions in certain streets.
- Mortgage lenders and freehold arrangements need early legal advice.
What are the steps?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
