Covering Deeside
Deeside is about 11 miles north of Wrexham. We also cover Hawarden (1 miles to the south-east), Buckley and Flint.
Homes in Clwyd
Housing in Wales ranges from terraced streets in the valleys and older industrial towns to stone-built homes in rural areas and modern estates around the cities.
What do you get with a house-to-flat conversion?
A house-to-flat conversion divides a single house into two or more self-contained flats, each with its own front door, kitchen and bathroom. It always needs planning permission and full building regulations approval, particularly for fire separation and sound insulation between flats.
- Planning and building regulations checks under Welsh rules
- Separate electrics, heating and metering
- Bin, cycle and amenity space works
How much should I budget for a house-to-flat conversion?
Use these ranges to budget for house-to-flat conversions; the survey turns them into a fixed price for the agreed specification.
Priced on survey.
Planning and building rules in Deeside
Welsh projects need planning clearance from the council under Welsh rules, building regulations approval under the Welsh approved documents, and party wall notices where the work affects a neighbour’s wall or foundations.
This needs full planning permission from your council in Wales.
What should I think about before starting?
- Some councils restrict the loss of family houses or limit flat conversions in certain streets.
- Sound insulation between flats is tested on completion.
What are the steps?
- Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
