Design & Build in Bayswater.
Design and build means we take responsibility for the whole project, from the first sketch to the day you move back in. There is one contract, one programme and one person to call, and the people who drew the scheme are in the same office as the people building it.
For a house or flat in Bayswater that covers the measured survey, concept and developed design, planning and building regulation drawings, the applications themselves, construction by our own site team, the kitchen and bathrooms we supply, joinery, decoration and handover with a guarantee on the work.
The advantage is simple: nothing falls between an architect, a planning consultant and a builder, because they are the same team. Problems are solved on the drawing board rather than on site, and the price and programme are set before work starts.

Bayswater: the houses and the planning rules.
Bayswater's white stucco terraces and garden squares were built in the mid-nineteenth century to rival Belgravia, and most have since been divided into flats. Behind them lie mews, and along Bayswater Road and Queensway the mansion blocks and hotels. The whole district is a conservation area under Westminster.
We fitted a kitchen here with a metallic red high-gloss island, black tall units and an 80 mm Corian worktop, a good example of how a bold contemporary kitchen can sit inside a stucco building without touching the historic fabric.
The Bayswater Conservation Area covers most of the district.
Westminster City Council
Applications go to Westminster. Conservation-area policies protect the stucco fronts, rear elevations facing squares and the mews.
Converted houses
In converted terraces, changes to shared services, structure and soundproofing between flats need building regulations approval and often a licence to alter.
Basements
Westminster's basement policy applies; light wells and pavement vaults have particular rules.
Approvals for design and build in Bayswater.
All approvals are managed within the contract, so design, consent and construction run as one programme with one team responsible for each.
Applications go to Westminster. Conservation-area policies protect the stucco fronts, rear elevations facing squares and the mews.
