Builders in Barnet

Barnet is one of London's largest boroughs, and its housing stock reflects that variety — from Edwardian semis around East Barnet to 1930s detached homes in New Barnet and conservation area properties near Monken Hadley. Albert Construction works across the whole borough, building extensions, converting lofts, and renovating kitchens and bathrooms to a standard that matches the quality of homes here. We understand Barnet Council's planning requirements well — particularly the additional restrictions that apply in conservation areas where permitted development rights don't automatically apply. If your project needs a full planning application, we manage the process for you. Every project is run by our own team. No subcontractors, no surprises — just consistent workmanship backed by a 2-year guarantee and £10 million public liability insurance.

Operating locally across Barnet, we have extensive experience extending and renovating Victorian terraces, Edwardian semis, 1930s detached and conservation area properties. Whether your property is near Barnet High Street or Monken Hadley, we understand the local architecture perfectly. Parts of Barnet fall within conservation areas where permitted development rights are restricted.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there planning restrictions for extensions in Barnet conservation areas?
Yes. Parts of Barnet — including Monken Hadley, Chipping Barnet High Street, and areas around the Old Courthouse — are conservation areas where permitted development rights are removed or restricted. You will need a full planning application, and the design must respect the character of the area. We have experience navigating Barnet Council's planning requirements.
What type of extension works best on an Edwardian semi in Barnet?
Edwardian semis in Barnet typically suit a rear extension — either single or double storey — that opens up the kitchen-dining area into the garden. Many homeowners also combine this with a side-return extension to maximise the ground floor. Structural steelwork removes the internal walls while maintaining the property's character.
How much does a loft conversion cost in Barnet?
A dormer loft conversion in Barnet typically costs between £38,000 and £55,000. Hip-to-gable conversions on semi-detached homes cost slightly more at £45,000 to £65,000. The exact price depends on the roof structure, access, and your specification. We provide a detailed fixed-price quotation after your free site survey.
Do you work on 1930s detached properties in Barnet?
Yes. 1930s detached homes are one of the most common property types we work on in Barnet. They typically have good-sized plots that allow for generous rear and side extensions, and the original roof structure usually accommodates a loft conversion well.
