Local knowledge
Building in City of London
The homes
Homes here are almost all flats: the listed concrete towers and terraces of the Barbican and the neighbouring Golden Lane estate, plus apartments in converted offices and warehouses around Smithfield and Aldgate. There are very few houses, so work is internal and usually inside a managed block.
Planning and the council
Much of the Square Mile is covered by conservation areas and listed buildings, and the Barbican has its own listed building guidelines, so even internal changes can need consent. Expect to agree working hours, lift use and deliveries with the building's management before starting.
What we are asked for most
Flat refurbishments in listed residential blocks, kitchen and bathroom refits in apartments, hardwood and engineered flooring with acoustic underlay, small office and shop fit-outs and planned maintenance for managed buildings.
