Construction Project Management in Harrow.

A building project is only as good as its management. Every site we run in Harrow has a named site manager who is there every day, a programme that is agreed before work starts, and a weekly report to the client covering progress, decisions needed and anything that has changed.

The site manager coordinates our own trades and the specialists a project needs, from structural engineers and approved inspectors to glazing, stone and joinery suppliers, and deals with the practical realities of building in London: parking suspensions, skips, deliveries through narrow streets, neighbours and party walls.

We build from our own drawings or from your architect's. In the second case we coordinate their inspections with the programme and take responsibility for the construction detail, so the architect's design is built as they intended.

Harrow: the houses and the planning rules.

Harrow is Metroland: the streets around Harrow-on-the-Hill, North Harrow and Rayners Lane were built between the wars for commuters on the Metropolitan line, with generous semi-detached houses on plots that suit rear extensions and loft conversions. On the Hill itself, the village around the school is older, with Victorian and Georgian houses inside a conservation area.

It is one of our busiest areas. We have built a rear extension with bi-fold doors and a new kitchen in Rayners Lane, a loft and six-metre rear extension in Harrow on the Hill, refurbished a house in North Harrow, and fitted out cafés in St George's shopping centre and at the bus station.

The Harrow on the Hill Village and Roxeth Hill conservation areas cover the Hill; most of the borough is unrestricted.

London Borough of Harrow

Harrow decides applications. Outside the Hill's conservation areas, most rear extensions and loft conversions fall within permitted development, subject to the usual size limits.

Permitted development

Single-storey rear extensions up to 3 metres, or 6 metres with prior approval, and rear dormers within 50 cubic metres are typical. A lawful development certificate is worth obtaining for resale.

Harrow on the Hill

Within the village conservation area, extensions and roof changes need a planning application and matching materials.

Approvals for construction project management in Harrow.
