Loft Conversions in Blackheath
Extra bedrooms and bathrooms in Blackheath's period homes, from a team based in SE3.
We're based on Wemyss Road in Blackheath, so loft conversions here are on our doorstep. Many local houses are Victorian and Georgian, often inside the Blackheath Conservation Area, which shapes what can be built at roof level.
Our recent Westcombe Park Road project turned an unused loft into a new bedroom and bathroom inside the conservation area — the kind of job we do most often locally.

Planning and conservation in Blackheath
- The Blackheath Conservation Area crosses both Greenwich and Lewisham councils, so the right council depends on your street.
- In a conservation area, dormers and roof changes facing the street usually need full planning permission rather than permitted development.
- Rear dormers and rooflights are often easier to agree, but materials and proportions need to match the house.
- We check the planning route at the site visit, before you spend money on drawings.
General guidance only — your council has the final say, and we confirm the route for your house at the site visit.
