TFL-Approved Shop Fit-Outs in Wimbledon.
Retail units in stations are a market of their own. The work is approved by TFL's commercial team and the station operator before it starts, most of it happens after the last train, and the materials have to meet the fire and smoke standards for enclosed stations. We are approved to do this work and have fitted out units at London Bridge, Uxbridge and Acton Central stations and Harrow-on-the-Hill bus station.
For an operator taking a unit at a station serving Wimbledon, we prepare the drawings, materials schedule, method statements and risk assessments the approval needs, build the counters and joinery off site, and install with our own trades in the access windows the station allows.
The opening date in the lease is the fixed point. We plan the programme backwards from it, book the night-time access in advance and hand over with the certificates the operator and TFL require.

Wimbledon: the houses and the planning rules.
Wimbledon divides into the village on the hill beside the Common, with its Georgian and Victorian houses and some of the largest private homes in south London, and the town below it, with Edwardian terraces and semis running down to the station. Between them are the Parkside roads of detached houses that attract owners with substantial budgets.
Projects here range from complete refurbishments of village houses, with basements and garden rooms, to extensions and lofts on the Edwardian streets. Merton's conservation guidance applies in the village and around the Common; elsewhere permitted development covers much of what owners want to do.
The Wimbledon Village, Wimbledon North and Merton Park conservation areas cover the village, the common edge and the garden suburb; most other streets are unrestricted.
London Borough of Merton
Merton decides applications. Within the Wimbledon Village and North conservation areas, roof changes and rear extensions need a full application; outside them permitted development often applies.
Large houses
Basements, pool houses and garden buildings on the larger plots need a householder application and, near the Common, careful attention to trees.
Merton Park
The garden suburb has Article 4 directions and specific guidance on hedges, windows and extensions.
