Overview
Conversions & Change of Use
Conversion and change-of-use construction for developers, investors and landlords: commercial to residential, office to residential, retail to residential, warehouse conversions, HMO and serviced accommodation.
Works include building subdivision, property amalgamation, internal reconfiguration, house-to-flat conversion, loft and roof-space development, basement conversion, and the structural alterations each of those depends on.
Change of use lives or dies on what the building will actually take. We look at structure, access, fire strategy, drainage and services before the unit mix is fixed, because a scheme that works on a plan and not in the building is the expensive way to find out.

Drawing to visual
Hawkhurst barn, from site plan to scheme
One of our own conversion schemes: the site plan and construction details our team drew, and the barn they describe.
How we deliver it
One team, from survey to handover
01
Test the building
Structure, access, fire strategy, drainage and services are checked before the unit mix is fixed — not after it is drawn.
02
Design & approvals
Our in-house team prepares the planning and building regulation drawings, with structural calculations, so the approved scheme is the one we build.
03
Fixed price, one team
The works are priced as a fixed quote in writing and delivered by our own trades under a dedicated project manager and site foreman.
04
Sign-off & handover
Building Control sign-off where it applies, completion certificates and a 10-year structural guarantee on the work.
