Local to Brockley

Our survey diary covers Brockley, including SE4, SE8, SE13, SE14, SE15, SE22. Neighbouring towns we cover include New Cross (1 mile), Greenwich (1 mile), Catford (1 mile), Peckham (2 miles).

Just over the Kent border, Swanley is about 10 miles away. London's housing is dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many with a rear outrigger and a side return, and 1930s semis in the outer boroughs. Conservation areas are common, so the planning check comes first.

Will the council need to approve it?

In England a single-storey rear extension can usually go up to 3 m beyond the original rear wall of a semi-detached or terraced house, or 4 m on a detached house, without a planning application, provided it is no more than 4 m high, keeps eaves to 3 m within 2 m of a boundary and, with other buildings, covers no more than half the land around the original house. The larger home extension prior approval scheme raises those depths to 6 m and 8 m, with neighbours notified and a 42-day decision.

Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.

Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent, usually through a build-over agreement, before the foundations go in.

If the work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 m (sometimes 6 m) of a neighbour's building, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notice must be served before work starts: two months for work to a party wall, one month for new walls on the boundary and for excavations.

Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

From first visit to completion

Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.

  1. Free site visit

    It starts with a visit to your house to measure, check access and talk through ideas and budget.

  2. Design and approvals

    Once the layout is agreed, we deal with the council: planning permission or written confirmation that none is needed, plus building control.

  3. Fixed written price

    The price is fixed in writing once the design is settled, with a clear programme and payment stages.

  4. Build and sign-off

    We build it with one project manager, book the building control inspections and hand over the completion certificate.

Your questions about a conservatory replacement in Brockley

Who do I contract with for a conservatory replacement in Brockley?

Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which designs and manages the project and the build teams who carry it out.

Will my neighbours in Brockley be involved?

If a planning application or prior approval is needed, the council notifies neighbours. If the work is on or near a shared boundary, party wall notices may also be needed.

Do you cover all of Brockley?

Yes. We cover Brockley and the surrounding parts of Greater London. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.

Is it worth replacing a conservatory with an extension?

If the conservatory is unusable for much of the year, usually yes. A solid extension gives a heated room that counts as proper living space. Our guide range is about £2,400 to £4,550 per m² including VAT, including removal.

Can I keep the existing base?

Sometimes, but conservatory bases are often too shallow for solid walls. Trial holes tell us before we confirm the price.
