Do I need planning permission for an extension in Ilford?
It depends on the size. Many extensions fall under ‘Permitted Development’ in Redbridge, but larger projects require full planning. We can handle this process for you.
How long does a typical loft conversion take?
Most loft conversions in the Ilford area take between 6 to 8 weeks, depending on complexity and weather conditions.
Are your builders insured?
Yes, we carry full public liability and employer’s liability insurance for your peace of mind.
Home Maintenance Tips
- Gutters: Keep them clear of leaves, especially in autumn, to prevent water damage to walls.
- Pointing: Check brickwork pointing every few years; London weather can erode mortar.
- Ventilation: Ensure air bricks aren’t blocked to prevent condensation and damp.
