Property styles in Brighton and Hove

Regency squares and terraces are concentrated around Brunswick, Kemp Town and the seafront, with dense Victorian terraced housing across much of the wider city, and later suburban housing further from the centre. Basement conversions, loft conversions and rear extensions are common project types on the terraced stock, subject to conservation area and party wall considerations.

Planning considerations

Brighton & Hove City Council is the local planning authority. The city has one of the highest concentrations of conservation areas of any local authority in the South East, and many properties are listed, particularly in the Regency squares. Basement work also requires careful consideration of structural and drainage issues in a dense urban setting.

FAQs

Handyman in Brighton and Hove: FAQs

Do you provide handyman across all of Brighton and Hove?

Yes, we cover the BN1, BN2 and BN3 postcode areas in full, including Kemp Town, Hove, Preston Park, Hanover, Seven Dials, Fiveways, Patcham, Portslade.

Can I book a handyman for a list of unrelated small jobs?

Yes, that's exactly what this service is for — bundling several small, unrelated jobs into a single visit rather than booking separate trades for each one.

Can I extend a listed Regency property in Brighton?

Alterations to listed buildings require listed building consent in addition to any planning permission, and the historic character of Regency terraces means proposals are considered carefully. We assess feasibility on a case-by-case basis.
