Design & Build in Putney.
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 Putney 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.

Putney: the houses and the planning rules.
Putney rises from the river to the Heath through streets of Victorian and Edwardian houses, with mansion flats near the bridge, larger houses on West Hill and around the Heath, and the Dover House garden estate to the west. It is a family district with good schools, and the houses are extended accordingly.
Side-return and rear extensions, loft conversions and full refurbishments are the everyday projects, and on the larger West Hill and Heath-side plots we see double-storey extensions and basements. Wandsworth's guidance is clear and the council decides quickly when the drawings are complete.
The Putney Embankment, West Putney and Dover House Estate conservation areas cover parts of the district; many streets are unrestricted.
London Borough of Wandsworth
Wandsworth decides applications and publishes a house extension design guide; outside the conservation areas permitted development covers many rear extensions and lofts.
Basements
The borough's basement policy requires a construction method statement and limits new basements to a single storey under part of the garden.
Dover House estate
The garden estate has Article 4 directions and guidance on windows, roofs and extensions.
Approvals for design and build in Putney.
