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
Toilet Repair in Brighton and Hove: FAQs
Do you provide toilet repair 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.
Why does my toilet keep running after I flush?
This is almost always a worn fill or flush valve failing to seal properly, letting water continue to trickle into the pan. It's a straightforward repair in most cases and wastes a significant amount of water if left.
Is a leak at the base of the toilet serious?
It usually means the seal (the pan connector) between the toilet and the soil pipe has failed, which can let water track into the floor below over time. It's worth having looked at promptly rather than left.
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.
