NU Projects is a design and build company in Fulham SW6, founded in 2010. We handle loft conversions, dormers and mansards in South West London SW. A main dormer loft typically runs £90k to £140k. A mansard loft runs £140k to £220k. Call 020 7731 6841, and a budget estimate typically follows within seven days.

Across the SW postcodes, the terrace matters more than the house. Where a row keeps an unbroken roofline, an extra storey is hard to win. Where neighbours have already built up, an infill may be allowed.

Fulham’s two storey terraces often take a rear dormer. Taller Chelsea and Earl’s Court houses suit a mansard, where the group allows. Belgravia sits under Westminster’s own neighbourhood plan.

Inside, the stair is the hard part. It must reach the new floor without stealing a bedroom below. We draw the stair before the roof.

Steel, insulation and the new roof go on under one scaffold. Plumbing for the new bathroom follows existing service runs down the house.

What Kensington and Chelsea says about roofs.

Council: Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, under its Local Plan adopted in 2024.
Policy CD12: Roof changes must suit the character of the building and its group.
Existing mansards: A building or terrace that already has an extra storey is resisted.
Pitched roofs: Roofs with eaves are named as unsuitable for an added storey.
Infill: Where a terrace already has varied roof extensions, infilling can be permitted.
Dormers: Original dormers of interest are kept, even where neighbours altered theirs.
