Where We Build

Loft conversions across West London

We're based in Ealing (W5) and deliberately keep our patch tight, so our project managers are minutes from every site. We regularly build loft conversions in Ealing, Hanwell, Acton, Chiswick, Hammersmith, Shepherd's Bush, Kensington, Fulham and Richmond, and we know how each borough's planning and conservation rules affect what you can build.

Ealing & Hanwell (W5, W7, W13)

Mostly Edwardian and 1930s semis with hipped roofs, so hip-to-gable conversions combined with a rear dormer give the biggest gain. Parts of Ealing sit within conservation areas where full planning is required, and we handle those submissions.

Acton & Shepherd's Bush (W3, W12)

Long Victorian terraces with rear outriggers, ideally suited to L-shaped dormer conversions that can add a bedroom and an en-suite in one build.

Chiswick & Hammersmith (W4, W6)

Period stock with tight streets and strict conservation controls. We favour sympathetic rear dormers and mansard-style roofs, with brick and slate matched to the original.

Loft conversions in Chiswick →

Kensington & Fulham (W8, W14, SW6)

High-specification terraced loft conversions where finish and neighbour management matter as much as the structure. Party wall notices are handled from day one.

Richmond, Kew & Twickenham (TW9, TW10, TW11)

Richmond is the most planning-sensitive part of our patch: one of the highest counts of conservation areas of any London borough, listed villa stock around Richmond Hill and Kew Road, the World Heritage setting at Kew and protected views off the Hill. That is why roof form, dormer position and slate choice are argued over here more than they are a few miles east. We design to what Richmond upon Thames will actually approve, read the lease first on flats, and take the whole application through ourselves.
