London & the Home Counties

Considered spaces,
uncommonly built.

Twenty-Six Construction is a specialist design-and-build practice creating bespoke loft conversions and home extensions for discerning homeowners across London and the surrounding counties.

Our practice

A quieter kind of craftsmanship.

We are a small, focused team of designers, engineers and craftspeople who specialise in the difficult, detailed work of adding space to fine London homes — without compromising the character of the buildings we touch.

Every project we take on is treated as a piece of architecture in its own right: carefully drawn, structurally resolved, and finished to a standard that lasts. The result is space that feels inevitable — as though it had always been there.

About the practice
What we do

Seven approaches, one standard.

From a single Velux to a full mansard reconstruction, every conversion type is drawn from first principles to suit the roof, the street, and the way you live.

They understood the house before they understood the brief. What they built for us feels inevitable — as if the roof had always been that way.
