Conversions & Structural Works Across Gloucestershire

Turn unused space into rooms you love. Jer-Electrical delivers practical, compliant conversions and structural alterations—pairing experienced trades with tidy project management. From garages and basements to new openings and fireplaces, we handle the heavy lifting and the fine finishing, coordinating electrics in-house and trusted partners for other trades where needed.

What we do

  • Garage conversions: Insulation, damp protection, new floors, wiring, heating points and full interior finishing.

  • Basement & loft rooms: Lighting/power, ventilation, insulation upgrades and making-good for liveable, dry spaces.

  • Open-plan alterations: New doorways and widened openings with lintels/steels (RSJs) installed to engineer’s specifications.

  • Stud walls & room reconfiguration: Build or remove non-loadbearing walls, add pockets for sliding doors, sound-insulate as required.

  • Porch & entrance rebuilds: Fabric, insulation, electrics and weathering details for a warm, secure entry.

  • Fireplace installation & chimney works: Opening up, lintels, hearth prep and safe power for stoves/inserts (flue by specialist if required).

  • Flooring & sub-floor repairs: Level, strengthen and prepare for your chosen finish.

  • Demolition & removal (minor works): Careful strip-out with protection, waste management and clean handover.

For load-bearing changes we arrange structural calculations and liaise with Building Control so the work meets current UK Building Regulations.

FAQs

Do you handle structural calculations and steels?
Yes. We work with qualified structural engineers for calculations and supply/install lintels/RSJs to their specification.

Will I need Building Control approval?
Most structural changes and garage conversions require Building Regulations sign-off. We can coordinate submissions and inspections.

Do I need planning permission?
Many internal alterations are permitted development. Porches and changes to elevations can vary—tell us your postcode and we’ll advise the next steps.

Can you manage electrics and other trades?
Electrics are handled in-house. We regularly coordinate plumbing, plastering, carpentry and decorating to keep your project on schedule.

How disruptive is the work?
We phase tasks to reduce downtime, maintain safe access and use dust control/extraction. You’ll get a clear programme before we start.
