Flat Conversions and Space Utilisation With increasing demand for the provision of quality affordable homes, the conversion of ex-scheme manager flat and under utilised spaces within locations into new accommodation for Anchor customers is an important area of work for the Asset Investment Team. These conversions can vary from simple refurbishments including redecorations, kitchens and bathrooms to complex projects requiring structural alterations, detailed planning and design. Some considerations when undertaking flat conversions include • Planning consent • Building regulation approval • Production of existing and proposed plans • Separation of services • Naming and numbering of new properties • Integration of existing M&E and life safety systems • Drainage
To support the delivery of these projects standards, guidance notes and process maps have been produced which can be found here: Notifying Asset Strategy of Suitable Properties If you are aware of a vacant flat or under utilised spaces that may be suitable for conversion in to one or more dwellings please notify Anchor’s Asset Strategy Team by following the guidance available onThe Bridge: Link Link
