Building work in Twickenham

London Design & Construction designs and builds extensions, loft conversions and refurbishments in Twickenham. Homes here are mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the Green and St Margarets, with inter-war semis towards Whitton and Strawberry Hill, and most of the work we are asked for is kitchen extensions to terraces and semis, and hip-to-gable loft conversions on inter-war houses.

Twickenham 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.

Roads around the stadium are subject to event day parking controls, which we allow for when booking deliveries.

Frequently asked questions

Which parts of Twickenham do you cover?

We cover the whole of Twickenham (TW1 and TW2), including the streets around Twickenham Green and Marble Hill Park. We also work in Teddington, Richmond and Kingston upon Thames, all within 5 km.

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

It depends on the street. Outside the conservation areas, many rear extensions and loft conversions to houses in Twickenham 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 Twickenham?

Most of the work in Twickenham is kitchen extensions to terraces and semis, and hip-to-gable loft conversions on inter-war houses. The typical properties are Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the Green and St Margarets, with inter-war semis towards Whitton and Strawberry Hill. 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 Twickenham?

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 Twickenham?

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 19 km from Twickenham.
