MTR Developments builds house extensions, loft conversions and renovations across Solihull. We are based in Bromsgrove, and Shirley, Olton and Solihull town are a short drive away.
Paul, who runs MTR, has 24 years of building experience and runs every job himself. We take on one or two builds at a time, so the same team stays on your site from start to finish.
Much of Solihull is interwar and postwar family housing with good sized gardens, which makes it ideal for rear and side extensions. Further out, towards Knowle and Dorridge, larger detached homes often suit two storey and wraparound extensions.
Kitchen diners and garage conversions on semis and detached houses in Shirley and Olton.
An extra bedroom and ensuite over a bigger kitchen, common on larger plots.
Hip to gable and dormer lofts on semis and chalet bungalows.
Modernising a house after purchase, from rewire to final decoration.
Planning in Solihull is handled by Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council, not Birmingham. Much of the borough outside the towns is green belt, where extensions are judged on how much they add to the original house, so we check the planning history of your property before drawing anything.
Inside the towns, many single storey rear extensions and loft conversions fall within permitted development, except in conservation areas such as Knowle and Hampton in Arden. The council no longer answers informal permitted development questions, so we can apply for a Lawful Development Certificate to confirm it in writing.
