Construction Project Management in Barnes.
A building project is only as good as its management. Every site we run in Barnes 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.

Barnes: the houses and the planning rules.
Barnes is a riverside village inside a loop of the Thames: Georgian houses on the Terrace, the Green with its pond, Victorian streets running back towards the Common, and the wide Castelnau estate leading to Hammersmith Bridge. It is quiet, well kept and closely protected.
The projects match the houses: refurbishments of Victorian family homes, side-return and rear extensions, lofts, and the occasional basement where the ground conditions near the river allow. Richmond's conservation guidance applies almost everywhere, and flood risk is checked on riverside sites.
The Barnes Green, Castelnau and Barnes Common conservation areas cover most of the village.
London Borough of Richmond upon Thames
Richmond decides applications; Article 4 directions in the Barnes conservation areas mean most external changes need a full application.
River and flood risk
Riverside streets sit in the Environment Agency flood zone, which affects basements and requires a flood risk assessment.
Castelnau
The paired villas of the Castelnau estate have specific guidance on roofs, side extensions and boundary walls.
