Builders in Islington
Looking for a builder in Islington? Surduk Construction has spent 15+ years working on London homes, and Islington is a regular part of our week. Islington is densely built with little off-street space, so jobs here depend on careful protection of period fabric and tidy logistics on narrow residential roads.
Local knowledge
Building in Islington
The homes
Barnsbury, Canonbury and the area around Angel are made up of Georgian and early Victorian terraces and squares, many of them listed. Further north in Holloway, Tufnell Park and Archway the houses are later Victorian and frequently divided into flats, while Clerkenwell has converted warehouses and workshops.
Planning and the council
Conservation areas cover a large part of Islington and the council pays close attention to rooflines, rear extensions and windows on its terraces. Gardens are small and access is often through the house, which is worth raising at the design stage.
What we are asked for most
Rear extensions on Georgian and Victorian terraces, lower ground floor refurbishments, flat renovations in converted houses, sash window overhaul and replacement and paved courtyard gardens.
