Because TW2 is a settled family suburb of inter-war bay-fronted semis around Whitton — ideal for rear and side extensions and hip-to-gable loft conversions as families grow. Most of the area is outside conservation designations, so much of the work runs on the Permitted Development route, which we confirm with a Lawful Development Certificate.
Usually yes on the semis — a hip-to-gable plus rear dormer within the 50 cubic metre volume allowance, confirmed by a Lawful Development Certificate. We check that your roof has the head height and that you are not in a constrained pocket, then draw the scheme for Building Control too.
Often, on the wider semi plots — a wrap-around ground-floor extension or a two-storey side addition, subject to Richmond's design and neighbour-amenity policy on the 45-degree daylight test. We design within those limits and produce the planning and Building Regulations drawings together.
