Builders and renovators in Richmond.
Richmond's Georgian and Victorian houses, on the Hill and around the Green, are among the most carefully protected in London. CAP designs and builds extensions, lofts, basements and full refurbishments across Richmond, with one team from planning through to aftercare.
What a project in Richmond usually involves.
Large parts of Richmond are covered by conservation areas, where external changes such as roof extensions, replacement windows and demolition are more tightly controlled than elsewhere.
The properties we are asked about in Richmond are mostly Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and riverside houses. Around Richmond Hill, Richmond Green and Richmond Park, the character of the street shapes what can be built, and we design to suit it.
Planning applications in Richmond are decided by Richmond upon Thames Council. Whatever the project, we check which consents your property needs before recommending any spend on drawings.

Yes. Richmond (TW10) is about 7 miles from our base on Mitcham Lane in Streatham, and the work we are asked about there is mostly on Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and riverside houses.
Do I need planning permission to extend or alter a property in Richmond?
Often, yes. Large parts of Richmond are conservation areas, where roof extensions, side extensions, cladding and demolition that would be permitted development elsewhere need a planning application, and some streets have Article 4 directions that bring windows and front elevations under control as well. Flats and maisonettes need permission for any extension. We check the status of your address before design work starts.

Richmond upon Thames Council. Building regulations approval can come from the council's building control team or from a registered building control approver, and we arrange whichever suits the project.
