Homes in London
London projects often mean working on period terraces with neighbours on both sides, tight access through the house and conservation area controls, so careful planning and party wall work matter as much as the build.
What is included in a house-to-flat conversion in Ilford?
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.
- Planning application and layouts to space standards
- Fire separation and sound insulation between flats
- Kitchens, bathrooms and finishes

What house-to-flat conversions typically cost. These are guide ranges; the written quote for your house replaces them.
Priced on survey.
What approvals does a house-to-flat conversion need in England?
English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.
Dividing a house into flats always needs planning permission in England.
What can change the price or programme?
- 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?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- 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.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
