High-value side-return and rear extensions on Victorian terraces. Basement projects common in W6 and SW6. Working out of London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham's area, we know the planners, the local building inspectors, and the named conservation officers — that personal relationship cuts weeks off the consenting timeline. Our typical Hammersmith & Fulham project is on Victorian terraces within easy reach of the Thames or Brook Green, and we work with a small panel of trusted London-area subcontractors we have used for years.
What's included in our bathroom refurbishment price
Strip-out, replumbing to current pressure standards, electrical fan and lighting (Part P notifiable), waterproof board to wet areas, tiling, sanitaryware install, mastic and grout. Client supplies sanitaryware and tiles within agreed allowances. Our written quotation covers labour, first-fix materials, project management, scaffolding, skips, Building Control fees and statutory inspections. Second-fix materials (kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, tiles, paint, sanitaryware) are supplied by the client as a deliberate cost-control measure — this typically saves homeowners £1,640–£3,075 in trade markup. We exclude planning fees, party-wall surveyor fees and structural engineer drawings, which we coordinate at cost.
Hammersmith & Fulham planning, party walls and Building Regs
Article 4 Direction across most of LBHF removes PD rights for rear and side extensions — full planning is the default. Wet-room construction needs a fully tanked floor and a 1:80 fall to the gully. Get this wrong and you will leak into the room below within 12 months. Note that Hammersmith & Fulham has multiple conservation areas — design must match prevailing materials, roof shape and fenestration. Party Wall Awards are typically needed for any excavation within 3 metres of a shared wall — we coordinate the surveyor and serve notices. Building Control is lodged at the start, with inspections at foundation, damp-course, pre-plaster and completion stages.
