Building work in Teddington

London Design & Construction designs and builds extensions, loft conversions and refurbishments in Teddington. Homes here are mostly Victorian villas and Edwardian semis between the High Street and Bushy Park, with riverside houses near the lock, and most of the work we are asked for is rear and wraparound extensions to family houses, and loft conversions with shower rooms.

Teddington is a mix of ordinary residential streets and pockets of conservation area, so what can be built without a full planning application changes from one road to the next. Planning applications and building control are handled by the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames.

Houses backing onto Bushy Park and the river sit within or beside conservation areas, so the rear elevation is often the sensitive one.

Frequently asked questions

Which parts of Teddington do you cover?

We cover the whole of Teddington (TW11), including the streets around Teddington Lock and Bushy Park. We also work in Twickenham, Kingston upon Thames and East Molesey, all within 4 km.

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

It depends on the street. Outside the conservation areas, many rear extensions and loft conversions to houses in Teddington can be built under permitted development, and a lawful development certificate from the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames confirms it. Inside a conservation area, or for a flat, a planning application is usually needed. We check which applies to your address first.

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

Most of the work in Teddington is rear and wraparound extensions to family houses, and loft conversions with shower rooms. The typical properties are Victorian villas and Edwardian semis between the High Street and Bushy Park, with riverside houses near the lock. 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 Teddington?

The London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. 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 Teddington?

Our project diaries show a rear extension to a London stock brick terrace and the refurbishment of a period flat, each photographed at every stage, along with a detached house extension in Bookham, about 17 km from Teddington.
