The Royal Borough of Greenwich runs from the historic town centre in SE10 out through Charlton and Woolwich to the interwar suburbs of Eltham. That geography gives you three distinct building types in one borough: Georgian and early Victorian brick near the park, solid-walled Victorian terraces along the SE7 and SE18 streets, and 1930s semis with cavity walls further out. The right approach differs sharply between them, and so does the level of planning control you will be working under, which is why we check the designation before anyone draws a line.
Maritime Greenwich is a designated World Heritage Site and the surrounding streets carry conservation area status, with a high concentration of listed buildings among them. Permitted development rights do not apply in those areas, alterations to a listed building need listed building consent, and materials, windows and roof detail are all part of what gets assessed.
That does not make the houses untouchable. It means the scheme is designed around what will be approved, and the work is then executed to that consent. We coordinate with your architect, appoint a structural engineer for any opening through a loadbearing wall, and build to the design issued. Repairing sash windows and original joinery usually sits better with the Royal Borough of Greenwich than replacing them.

FAQ
Where permitted development rights are intact, a single-storey rear extension on a semi-detached house is commonly limited to three metres, with a deeper projection possible through the prior approval route. A detached house commonly gets four. Conservation area designation removes these rights, so check your address against the Royal Borough of Greenwich mapping first.
Usually, yes. The main issues are the floor build-up and damp proofing, insulating walls and roof to Part L, filling the garage opening with a properly supported wall and window, and providing ventilation under Part F. Where the garage is integral, fire separation from the remaining structure also matters. It is notifiable work, so building control inspects it.
