Residential building work in Hastings & St Leonards
For a home with lower-ground accommodation or several storeys, resolve the relationship between structure, moisture, stairs and services early. Work to one level may disturb rooms elsewhere. Survey information and a complete schedule of reinstatement make that interface clearer.
Our residential focus is substantial work to existing homes: domestic refurbishments, extensions, loft and basement conversions, period-property renovation and larger repair packages. Choose the service that matches your project.
Commercial refurbishment & construction
For a hospitality building, shop or managed property, plan external repairs around the entrance and the people using the premises. Agree how changes discovered after opening up will be recorded, reviewed and priced before further work proceeds.
Commercial construction servicesPreparing your Hastings & St Leonards enquiry
Include the address, photographs of access and any survey of the building’s condition. If the work affects a shared structure or neighbouring property, identify the relevant owners and advice already obtained.
Include a budget range and tell us whether the building will remain occupied. If drawings or permissions are still being developed, say which decisions are outstanding. This helps us establish the next step without treating an early idea as a finished specification.
Send your project briefLocal checks before you build
Hastings Council identifies conservation areas including the Old Town and Burtons’ St Leonards. Check the records for the specific property and provide any conservation advice with the design brief.
Check the exact property with your designer or local planning authority. Planning, building regulations and other consents are project-specific.

Our project records document work at the Royal Albion Hotel and a&o Hostel in Brighton, including investigation, heritage coordination and phased refurbishment. They show how we approach existing buildings; the scope and method for your property will be agreed separately.
