Construction Project Management in Kenton.

A building project is only as good as its management. Every site we run in Kenton 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.

Kenton: the houses and the planning rules.

Kenton is Metroland between Harrow and Wembley: long avenues of 1930s semis with tiled bays, hipped roofs and gardens deep enough for a full-width extension. The houses were well built and most have never been extended beyond a small kitchen addition, so the potential is considerable.

The typical Kenton project is a rear extension for an open-plan kitchen and family room, a hip-to-gable loft with a rear dormer for two more bedrooms, and a refurbishment of the rest of the house to match. Because there are no conservation areas, most of it is permitted development.

There are no conservation areas in Kenton; most streets are unrestricted.

Harrow and Brent

The borough boundary runs through Kenton; we check which council applies at the first visit. Both allow most rear extensions and lofts under permitted development.

Hip-to-gable lofts

The 50 cubic metre allowance for semi-detached houses usually covers a hip-to-gable conversion with a rear dormer, confirmed by a lawful development certificate.

Larger extensions

Double-storey rear extensions and side extensions that come within a metre of the boundary need a householder application.

Approvals for construction project management in Kenton.

Approvals are coordinated within the programme, so building control inspections and party wall matters happen when the work is ready for them, and the site diary records every inspection.
