Living Design & Build has been delivering extensions, loft conversions and full property refurbishments for homeowners across Stourbridge and the surrounding villages of Pedmore, Wollaston, Norton, Oldswinford and Amblecote since 2005. As a family-run FMB-member builder based just over the Shropshire border, we work to current Building Regulations across DY7, DY8 and DY9 postcodes.
Stourbridge's housing stock is dominated by interwar semis, Victorian terraces around the town centre and 1960s–1980s estates in Pedmore and Norton. The most common projects we deliver here are single-storey rear extensions on semis and full kitchen-diner remodels with bi-fold or sliding doors out onto the garden. Period properties around Old Quarter and Wollaston regularly need sympathetic re-roofing, lime-mortar repointing and original-feature restoration, all of which our team handles in-house.
Stourbridge falls under Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council. Many single-storey rear extensions on detached and semi-detached homes can be built under permitted development, but properties in Old Quarter and parts of Wollaston conservation area need full planning permission. We handle the entire process for clients including planning portal submissions and Building Regs sign-off.
