Larger residential projects, run with the organisation they deserve.
White Construction Ltd builds extensions, renovations and whole-house projects for homeowners across West Sussex, Surrey and Kent. These are substantial builds. Months of work, multiple trades, architects and engineers to coordinate. They succeed or fail on how well they are managed.
We take on a small number of projects at a time so each one gets the attention it needs. Most of our work comes from people who have seen what we built for someone they know.
- Period, listed and conservation-area work
- We coordinate your architect and engineer
- Fully insured, guaranteed and documented
Where we do our best work
House Extensions
Single and double-storey extensions, wrap-arounds and side returns. Structural work, glazing and open-plan living, coordinated with your architect and building control.
Renovations & Refurbishments
Whole-house renovations and full refurbishments. Reconfigured layouts, new kitchens and bathrooms, rewires and replumbs, finished to a standard that lasts.
General Building & Construction
Structural alterations, groundworks, brickwork and external works. The substantial building behind larger residential projects.
Garage Conversions
Underused garages turned into proper rooms, insulated, heated and finished so they feel like part of the house rather than an afterthought.
The work, and what clients say about it
Before
After
Victorian Terrace Refurbishment
Rear Kitchen Extension
Detailed, itemised costs up front and no surprises at the end. That alone put them ahead of everyone else we spoke to.
A nine-month renovation and we never once had to chase anyone. Architect, engineer and trades all coordinated by them, not us.
Managed properly, from first drawing to final handover
Larger projects live or die on organisation. Ours run to a written programme, with one point of contact and progress you never have to ask for.
-
Consultation & feasibility
We visit, understand what you are trying to achieve and talk honestly about scope, budget and what is realistic, all before anything is drawn.
-
Detailed proposal & programme
A fully itemised proposal alongside a written build programme, so you can see exactly what you are paying for and when each stage happens.
-
Managed on site
A dedicated project manager, a planned trade sequence and structured weekly updates. Architects, engineers and specialists are coordinated by us, not by you.
-
Handover & aftercare
A full walk-round, every certificate and warranty handed over properly, and a team still on the end of the phone long after we have left.

Do I need planning permission to convert my garage?
Usually not. Most garage conversions are permitted development. Exceptions include listed buildings, conservation areas and properties where the original planning consent requires parking to be retained. We check all of this for you before we quote.
How long does a garage conversion take?
Typically 4–6 weeks for a single integral garage, including building control sign-off. Detached garages or conversions with plumbing (an ensuite, for example) can take a little longer.
Does converting a garage add value?
In most cases yes. Swapping storage space for a genuine extra room typically adds more value than the conversion costs, especially where the room works as a bedroom or office. If off-street parking is tight on your road, we'll flag that honestly before you commit.
Will the converted room be warm enough?
Yes, and that's the point of doing it properly. We insulate the floor, walls and ceiling to current building regulations and extend your heating into the new room, so it's as comfortable as the rest of the house all year round.
