What we build in East London
Much of East London is long runs of Victorian terraces with narrow side returns, which suits the work we do most: filling in the side return, pushing out at the back and converting the loft. We also take on full refurbishments for owners and landlords, flats included.
- Side return and wraparound extensions
- Rear extensions with steels and glazing
- Loft conversions

- Kitchen and bathroom renovations

Extending a terrace in East London
Side return extensions are popular here because they turn a dark, narrow galley kitchen into a proper family room. On its own a side extension can often go through permitted development, but a wraparound that combines side and rear normally needs full planning permission. On a terrace the Party Wall Act will almost always apply too, so it pays to start early.
East London boroughs vary on design. Hackney and Tower Hamlets have a lot of conservation areas, and several councils use Article 4 directions to protect the look of older streets. We'll check what applies to your road before you spend money on drawings.
Done well, an extension like this changes how the whole house works. At Latimer Road a closed-off kitchen became one bright room facing the garden.
