Specialists in Canary Wharf
Searching for conversion specialists in Canary Wharf (E14)? Buildaway works across
E14 - the towers at Canada Square, Heron Quays and South Quay, the apartments near
Millwall Dock, Crossharbour and Wood Wharf, and the converted warehouses of
Limehouse, Poplar and the Isle of Dogs.
Upper-floor and mezzanine conversion in Canary Wharf is a different discipline to a
suburban loft: Buildaway checks the structural slab and the lease before proposing
any new space. In E14 the building management, the freeholder and the original
engineering all constrain what can be added, and Buildaway resolves those first. Our
Canary Wharf team then delivers structure, stairs, insulation and finish within the
building's rules and its working hours.

Sean Kelleher
“We’ve had a genuinely fantastic experience with Buildaway. Cormac was ultra responsive and excellent at communicating with us throughout our project. The quality of the work was excellent - so much so, that we extended our project by adding a range of other building renovations to our original ask, each completed with care and precision…”
Kiran Collier
“Greg's attention to detail and dedication elevated both the experience and the result - he certainly knows his way around a tile. In addition to the bathroom refit, Cormac replaced all the plastic switches, sockets and pull-cords in the house with brushed brass. Highly recommended and will certainly work with the Buildaway team again…”

“I was recommended Buildaway by a colleague as I was impressed by the work they had done for my colleague. From the moment I contacted Cormac, I knew I was in good hands. He was incredibly friendly and accommodating right from the start. The very next day, he was at my property, taking measurements and discussing design options. What really impressed me was Cormac's honesty…”

Frequently Asked Questions
Your questions about loft conversions in Canary Wharf, answered.
How much does a loft conversion cost in Canary Wharf?
Buildaway prices Canary Wharf lofts from survey. As a working guide across E14: £25,000–£35,000+ for Velux, £35,000–£53,000+ for dormer, £49,000–£63,000++ for mansard or hip-to-gable. What moves it is headroom, the steel design and whether the stair can land without losing a room below. The written quote is fixed before work starts.
How long does a loft conversion take in Canary Wharf?
Six to ten weeks is realistic for Canary Wharf, depending on scheme. The build is predictable; the approvals are what vary. Buildaway handles party-wall, Building Control and Tower Hamlets Council consent in parallel with design so the E14 programme holds.
Do I need planning permission for a loft conversion in Canary Wharf?
Sometimes. In Canary Wharf, a rear dormer within volume limits can be permitted development, but the roofscape here is scrutinised and Tower Hamlets Council takes a view on anything visible from the street. Leasehold properties in E14 also need freeholder consent regardless of planning. Buildaway checks all three routes at feasibility.
What types of loft conversion do you offer in Canary Wharf?
Buildaway delivers Velux/rooflight, rear dormer, hip-to-gable and mansard conversions across Canary Wharf. Which suits your E14 home depends on roof pitch, headroom and what Tower Hamlets Council will accept - a mansard that works on one street near Canada Square and South Quay may be refused on the next. Buildaway surveys before recommending.
Do Buildaway handle both design and construction for Canary Wharf lofts?
Yes. Buildaway takes Canary Wharf lofts from feasibility survey and structural design through party-wall notices, Building Control, steels, stairs, insulation, glazing and finish. One contract across every E14 project, so nobody can blame the engineer for the builder's work or vice versa.
