Builders in Chiswick

Extensions, loft conversions and refurbishments for Chiswick's period houses, from Grove Park to Bedford Park.

What we build in Chiswick

Chiswick is mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces and semis, with the Arts and Crafts houses of Bedford Park and riverside cottages at Strand-on-the-Green. Owners here tend to want the same things: more space at the back, a room in the loft, and a house brought up to modern standards without losing its character.

Extending a period house in Chiswick

A side return or rear extension is the usual way to get a big family kitchen in a Chiswick terrace. Outside conservation areas, many single-storey rear extensions fall within permitted development. Within them, expect to apply for planning permission and to match materials like brick and roof tiles closely.

In Bedford Park, where many houses are listed, even internal changes can need listed building consent, so it's best to get advice before you plan anything. We're happy to work with your architect and the council's conservation officers.

Our West Hampstead extension was built in a conservation area, with the design agreed with conservation officers first. It's a good example of a modern addition that still respects a Victorian house.

Questions about building in Chiswick

Do you work in Bedford Park?

Yes. Many houses there are listed and the whole estate is a conservation area, so we plan for listed building consent and planning permission from the start and work closely with your architect.

Do you cover Grove Park, Turnham Green and Gunnersbury?

Yes, all of Chiswick, plus nearby Hammersmith, Brentford and Acton.

Can you match the existing brickwork?

Yes, we take care to match new work to old, from closely matched or reclaimed bricks to roof tiles and joinery details. We did the same on our Fulham and Latimer Road extensions.
