Builders in Hackney
From Dalston to Hackney Central, we look after homes right across Hackney. Hackney's stock is mostly mid to late Victorian terrace, often with original features worth keeping and roofs that need a considered approach to extend.
Local knowledge
Building in Hackney
The homes
Victorian terraces in London stock brick fill Stoke Newington, Clapton, Dalston and the roads around London Fields, with earlier semi-detached villas in De Beauvoir Town. Shoreditch and Hackney Wick have converted warehouses and factories, and council estates of various ages are spread throughout.
Planning and the council
Many residential streets are in conservation areas, so roof extensions, front windows and boundary changes often need consent. Houses commonly have valley or butterfly roofs behind a parapet, which affects what kind of loft conversion is acceptable.
What we are asked for most
Side-return kitchen extensions, mansard loft conversions on butterfly roof terraces, refurbishing converted flats, warehouse and live-work unit refits and small courtyard gardens and paving.
