Your Soho builder.
Design and build. One contract.
Soho — W1 — central London's entertainment and creative district. Residential stock is limited: upper-floor flats above commercial premises in Georgian terraces, plus intact single-family houses and mews properties. All sit within Soho Conservation Area.
Four services. One team. One number.
Soho projects: top-floor flat loft conversions (with freeholder consent), Georgian terrace upper-floor refurbishments, mews property conversions, and commercial-to-residential conversions where permitted.

Creative quarter — mixed-use Georgian terraces with residential upper floors.
Soho requires close attention to access constraints — scaffold in narrow streets, licensing requirements for listed-building work, and careful neighbour consultation. Our Westminster experience covers the full consent process.

What homeowners ask before booking a Soho builder.
Can a Soho upper-floor flat have a loft conversion?
Sometimes — but you need freeholder consent, party wall awards from all flats below, full planning, and usually listed-building consent. Access is the biggest practical challenge because scaffold in narrow Soho streets requires careful management. Budget for a significant premium over standard loft costs.
What services does 2VP offer in Soho?
Across W1 we deliver loft conversions, house extensions (side-return, rear, wraparound, double-storey, basement), whole-house renovations and period restorations, and new builds where the site allows. Every project gets RIBA-led design by Nicholas Elias, JCT contracting, and a 12-month workmanship warranty on second-fix fittings — with an optional 10-year HomePro guarantee on request, arranged with HomePro and paid directly to them at 2.5% of the contract value.
Does 2VP work in Soho?
Yes. Our studio is at 20 Dawes Road in Fulham, which puts Soho W1 inside our core west and south-west London territory — close enough that the project manager is on site rather than on the phone. Delivered projects with photographs are at https://2vp.uk/projects.
What's 2VP's response time for Soho enquiries?
Same-day site visits, written feasibility within three working days. You can also use the free 60-second cost calculator on this page for an instant tailored estimate — no callback required.
Does 2VP cover all of Westminster or just Soho?
All of Westminster. Our delivery teams cover the entire borough as part of our wider west and south-west London catchment. Our subcontractor network is local to W1 and surrounding postcodes.
Can I see 2VP's recent Soho projects?
Yes — our portfolio page shows project galleries with photography, architectural commentary and project budgets. Recent Soho work includes: Greek Street top-floor refurb (Top-floor conversion + interior, 2024); Frith Street restoration (Listed-building restoration, 2023); Meard Street mews (Mews rear-roof + interior, 2024).
