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.
- Separate electrics, heating and metering
- Kitchens, bathrooms and finishes
- Bin, cycle and amenity space works

Guide prices for house-to-flat conversions, including VAT where it applies. Your fixed price is confirmed in writing after the survey.

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.
