ConstructionApartments & flats
Blocks of flats and conversions for developers and landlords.
We build apartment blocks and convert existing buildings into flats for developers, investors and landlords.
Multi-unit work is planned around fire safety, sound insulation and access from day one, because that is where Building Control looks hardest.
What's included
- New-build apartment blocks
- Conversions of houses and commercial buildings into flats
- Separating walls and floors
- Fire-stopping and compartmentation
- Common areas and external works
Good to know
- Converting a building into flats usually needs planning permission and always needs Building Regulations approval.
- Separating walls and floors between flats must meet sound-insulation standards, normally proven by testing at the end.
- Larger projects become notifiable to the Health and Safety Executive under CDM 2015 — we handle the notification.

Questions people ask
Do I need planning permission?
It depends on the project. Many single-storey extensions, garden walls and fences are permitted development and need no application, but limits apply and some areas are excluded. Use our free planning checker for a first answer — we confirm it before work starts.
Do I need Building Regulations approval?
Yes for extensions, structural alterations, new homes and conversions — even when planning permission is not needed. Building Control inspects the work and signs it off at the end.
Who sorts out the permissions and paperwork?
We tell you exactly what your job needs — planning, Building Regulations, party wall notices, surveys — and handle it before work starts, so nothing is left to chance.
How do you price a job?
We start with a free site visit, or from your photos and videos, then give you a written, itemised quote showing what is included and what is not.
What about my neighbours?
If work affects a shared wall or digs near a neighbour's foundations, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 requires written notice — normally two months for wall work and one month for excavation.
Who does the gas and electrical work?
Gas work is done only by Gas Safe registered engineers, and electrical work only by qualified electricians.
