BUILDING IN EAST SHEEN
East Sheen features wide Edwardian streets, Victorian terraces and 1930s detached houses. These plots are ideal for double-storey side extensions, and excellent schools drive consistent family demand.
Dormer and hip-to-gable conversions suit 1930s detached homes; mansard conversions are ideal for Edwardian semis.
Our East Sheen portfolio includes five projects: a double-storey side extension, a glass-roofed kitchen extension, a mansard conversion and two loft conversions — all within SW14.
Local advantage
Why East Sheen homeowners choose DPS for loft conversions
01 · PLANNING HANDLED
We handle the permission side in-house.
Planning drawings, building-regulations and party-wall paperwork are prepared and submitted by our own team —
including for conservation-area or listed properties where extra consent is needed. One point of contact owns
both the approvals and the build, so nothing falls between an architect and a separate contractor.
02 · ONE TEAM
Architects, builders, project managers — all in-house.
No subcontractor juggling. From the first sketch through structural engineering to final snagging, your project moves
through people who all sit in the same office and answer to the same project manager.
03 · TRANSPARENT PRICING
£60k–£140k typical — itemised and fixed.
You pay in stages, only after each stage is signed off. Variations only happen when scope genuinely changes — and
they go through written authorisation, never a verbal "while we are at it".

Yes — East Sheen (SW14) is well within our Richmond upon Thames working area. We typically deliver several loft conversions projects across this borough each year.

End-to-end (consultation → handover) usually 8–14 weeks. Build phase alone is shorter — most loft conversions sites complete in 8–18 weeks depending on scope and finishes.

Will I need planning permission in East Sheen?
It depends on the property. Many loft conversions fall under permitted development, especially in Richmond upon Thames. Where planning is needed (conservation areas, listed properties, larger schemes), we handle the application end-to-end.
Will my loft conversion need planning permission?
Many lofts fall under permitted development if you stay within volume limits. Conservation areas always need full planning. We handle either route.
How tall must my loft be to convert?
You need at least 2.2m of head height in the existing loft. We measure on the first visit and confirm what conversion fits.
Will the build be disruptive?
Most of the work happens upstairs, with rooflight access for materials. You stay in your home throughout.
