  • Complex Loft Conversions – Including mansards, listed properties, and flats.
  • Party Wall Agreements – Full support with notices, surveyors, and legal compliance.
  • Permitted Development Rights – Maximising what you can achieve without formal applications.

Our proven step-by-step process ensures precision, safety, and peace of mind:

  1. Consultation & Feasibility – Site visit, measurements, and feasibility analysis.
  2. Design & Planning – Architectural drawings, planning submission, and structural calculations.
  3. Preparation & Build – Scaffolding, structural steel installation, and roof modifications.
