Building work in Cobham

London Design & Construction designs and builds extensions, loft conversions and refurbishments in Cobham. Homes here are mostly detached houses on large plots, with older cottages around Church Street and the River Mole, and most of the work we are asked for is extensions and remodelling of detached houses, with new kitchens and glazing.

Cobham is bordered by Metropolitan Green Belt, where extensions and replacement houses are judged against the size of the original building. Planning applications and building control are handled by Elmbridge Borough Council.

Plots near the River Mole can fall within a flood zone, where a flood risk assessment is submitted with the planning application.

Frequently asked questions

Which parts of Cobham do you cover?

We cover the whole of Cobham (KT11), including the streets around Painshill Park and Cobham Mill. We also work in Esher, Weybridge and Bookham, all within 7 km.

Do I need planning permission for an extension or loft conversion in Cobham?

It depends on the plot. In the Green Belt around Cobham, an extension must not be disproportionate to the original house, so the size of the existing building and any earlier extensions matter. Houses within the built-up area can often still use permitted development. Elmbridge Borough Council decides applications, and we check the planning history before designing.

What kind of building work do you carry out in Cobham?

Most of the work in Cobham is extensions and remodelling of detached houses, with new kitchens and glazing. The typical properties are detached houses on large plots, with older cottages around Church Street and the River Mole. Each project has one point of contact, with design, structure, plumbing, electrics and roofing carried out by our own team.

Which council deals with planning and building control in Cobham?

Elmbridge Borough Council. Where a project needs a planning application or a lawful development certificate, the drawings are prepared before work starts, and building control inspections are arranged at each stage of the build.

Can I see examples of your work near Cobham?

Yes. Our project diary for a detached house in Bookham, about 6 km from Cobham, shows a full-width glazed extension from the dig-out in May 2025 to handover in February 2026.
