Services · Commercial Conversions

Commercial stock, made residential.

Pubs, offices, shops and commercial units turned into homes, HMOs and serviced accommodation. Your architect sets the planning route; we price the build before you exchange and build it properly. Planning through and drawings in hand? That's where we come in.

What a commercial conversion looks like

Whatever the planning route, we price and build it.

Every commercial-to-residential project starts with the planning route, and that is your architect's call: prior approval or full planning, settled before you exchange. Our job is to price the build properly from the drawings and then build it.

Your architect designs the scheme and confirms the planning route. Your structural engineer does the calculations. We price the build from their information, before you exchange if you need it, and then we build it.

On site, the same six-phase HYPE Build Standard runs as on every job, logged and photographed daily on The HYPE System.

Who this is for

Investors and providers with a viable scheme and planning in place.

We work with developers, investors and accommodation providers who have a viable scheme and are buying commercial stock that needs converting properly.

01

Commercial asset identified or under offer

Pubs, offices, shops and commercial units. Tell us what you have.

02

A scheme with a real build budget

Commercial conversions vary with unit count, structure and listed status. We price yours properly before you exchange. If the appraisal only works at the cheapest possible build cost, you'll need a different contractor.

03

Planning route confirmed by your architect

Prior approval or full planning: your architect confirms the route. We price and build from the drawings.

04

Time horizon

Programme depends on the building, the planning route, and what is behind the walls when we open it up. We tell you on the first call if it cannot be done in the time you have.

The honest filter

If you are hoping to convert a high-street retail unit into a single flat at the cheapest possible build cost: we are not the contractor. We will point you to someone who is.

For the right build only

Build it right.
Build it HYPE.

We take on substantial building work across Stoke-on-Trent and the Midlands: extensions, conversions, full refurbishments, commercial works and repairs after fire, flood or damage. Properly scoped projects, not odd jobs or reactive maintenance.

We're VAT registered, so on smaller jobs a non-VAT builder will always undercut us. That's just the maths. Our work pays off where doing it properly matters more than the cheapest quote.

If that sounds like your project, tell us what you've got. We'll tell you straight whether we're right for it, and if we're not, we'll say so. Either way, we wish you all the best x.
