GS Renovation designs and builds house extensions throughout Bexleyheath, making the most of the generous plots that came with its 1930s semi-detached and interwar homes. With over 30 years of experience across DA6, we handle groundworks, steelwork, roofing and a full fit-out, guiding you through Bexley Council permissions from the first sketch.
Rear and side-return extensions in Bexleyheath
Interwar Bexleyheath houses were built on wider plots than inner-London terraces, so there is often real room to extend at the rear or fill in the side passage of a semi. A single-storey rear extension opens the kitchen onto the garden, while a wrap-around adds a proper kitchen-diner. We dig and pour the foundations, install the steel beams and tie the new roof neatly into the existing 1930s roofline.
Whether your extension is permitted development or needs a full planning application to Bexley Council depends on your specific property, its size and whether it has been extended before. We assess this at the outset so you know exactly which route applies before any work begins in DA6.
Double-storey extensions on Bexleyheath plots
The width of many Bexleyheath interwar plots also suits a double-storey side extension, adding a downstairs room and an extra bedroom above without eating into the garden. On a semi this brings the party wall into play, so we serve the correct Party Wall Act notices on the adjoining owner and agree the works before we break ground.
We manage the whole build: foundations and groundworks, load-bearing steelwork, the new roof, windows to match the interwar character, and the full internal fit-out with plastering, electrics and heating. Building regulations govern the structure and insulation, and we book Bexley Council building control inspections at each key stage through to completion.
