Your questions answered
How much does a flat conversion cost?
It varies too much to give a reliable guide figure, so we price each one on survey. The reduced 5% VAT rate can apply where the number of dwellings changes.
Can you help with the planning case?
Yes. We check the council’s policies first and only proceed with a design that has a realistic chance of approval.
How do I get a price for house-to-flat conversions in County Tyrone?
Use the guide price tool for a ballpark figure, then book a visit for a fixed written price for the agreed specification.
