Covering Leatherhead
Our coverage around Leatherhead (KT22) also includes Epsom (4 miles to the north-east) and Ewell.
Homes in the South East
Housing across the South East mixes inter-war semis, post-war estates and older cottages in villages and market towns, so rear and side extensions, hip-to-gable lofts and garage conversions all come up regularly.
What is a house-to-flat conversion?
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.

Fire separation between flats, protected escape routes, sound insulation and separate services.
Who deals with the council for a project in Leatherhead?
We do. We prepare the drawings, submit planning or permitted development paperwork if needed, and arrange building control inspections.
