Extensions & Loft Conversions in Hillingdon
In Hillingdon we are most often asked for rear and side extensions and bungalow loft conversions. Large areas in the north and west are Green Belt, and villages such as Harefield, Ruislip and Ickenham have conservation areas at their centres. Near Heathrow in the south, noise insulation is a practical consideration for glazing, lofts and extensions.

FAQ
Extensions & Lofts in Hillingdon
Not answered here? Call 07595 386864 and ask us directly.
Do you carry out extensions & loft conversions in Hillingdon?
Yes. We work across Hillingdon, including Uxbridge, Hayes, Ruislip, Northwood and West Drayton.
Do I need planning permission for an extension?
Not always. Many single-storey rear extensions and loft conversions fall under permitted development, which has size limits and does not apply to flats, maisonettes or some conservation areas. We check your property at the site visit and tell you which route applies before you spend anything on drawings.
How long does an extension take?
A typical single-storey rear extension takes around 10 to 14 weeks on site once approvals are in place. A loft conversion is usually 8 to 12 weeks. We give you a written programme with the quote so you know what happens each week.
Can we live in the house during the work?
Usually yes. We seal off the working area, keep a kitchen and bathroom running wherever possible, and agree the noisy or dusty days with you in advance.
