Building work in Wimbledon

London Design & Construction designs and builds extensions, loft conversions and refurbishments in Wimbledon. Homes here are mostly large Victorian and Edwardian houses around the Village and the Common, with terraces in South Wimbledon and semis towards Raynes Park, and most of the work we are asked for is large rear extensions and whole house refurbishments, and loft conversions on terraces.

Large parts of Wimbledon are covered by conservation areas, where roof extensions, side extensions and changes to front elevations are more tightly controlled than elsewhere. Planning applications and building control are handled by the London Borough of Merton.

Around the Village and the Common, Merton has several conservation areas where roof extensions and front elevations are closely controlled.

Frequently asked questions

Which parts of Wimbledon do you cover?

We cover the whole of Wimbledon (SW19 and SW20), including the streets around Wimbledon Common and Wimbledon Village. We also work in New Malden, Putney and East Sheen, all within 7 km.

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

Often, yes. Large parts of Wimbledon are conservation areas, where roof extensions, side extensions and cladding that would be permitted development elsewhere need a planning application. Flats and maisonettes need permission for any extension. The London Borough of Merton decides applications, and we check the status of your address before design work starts.

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

Most of the work in Wimbledon is large rear extensions and whole house refurbishments, and loft conversions on terraces. The typical properties are large Victorian and Edwardian houses around the Village and the Common, with terraces in South Wimbledon and semis towards Raynes Park. 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 Wimbledon?

The London Borough of Merton. 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 Wimbledon?

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 20 km from Wimbledon.
