Covering Perth

Homes in Perth and Kinross
Scottish homes range from city tenements and sandstone terraces to bungalows and modern estates, and the building warrant process shapes the programme for every project.
What do you get with 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.
- Feasibility check against local planning policy
- Kitchens, bathrooms and finishes
- Bin, cycle and amenity space works
What will a house-to-flat conversion cost?
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.
What approvals does a house-to-flat conversion need in Scotland?
In Scotland the key step is the building warrant, which must be granted before work begins. Planning permission is decided separately by the council, and work on shared walls is handled under your title deeds rather than a party wall act.
This needs planning permission and a building warrant from your council in Scotland before work starts.
What can change the price or programme?
- Each flat needs its own utilities and metering.
- Sound insulation between flats is tested on completion.
How does the project run?
- 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.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
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.
How long does a conversion take?
Typically 16 to 30 weeks on site after approvals.
Who deals with the council for a project in Perth?
We do. We prepare the drawings, submit planning or permitted development paperwork if needed, and arrange building control inspections.
