Question 1

Can you renovate a converted Victorian warehouse apartment in Bermondsey (SE1)?

Accepted Answer

Yes — TB&D Construction handles full flat renovations in the converted Victorian warehouses and railway arches around Borough Market and Bermondsey Street. These spaces often have exposed brick, original steelwork and non-standard floor levels that need specialist handling. We carry out full kitchen refits, full bathroom refits, polished concrete or engineered timber floors and bespoke storage built around structural columns, typically as part of a full flat renovation.

Question 2

What planning constraints apply in the Dulwich conservation areas (SE21/SE22)?

Accepted Answer

The Dulwich Village and College Road conservation areas in SE21 and SE22 protect the historic estate character of one of south London's most intact Victorian suburbs. Article 4 directions remove permitted development rights for external changes including roof alterations, rear extensions above a certain scale and front modifications. TB&D checks the planning position for every Dulwich address on the site visit and advises on what requires a planning application.

Question 3

How much does a full house renovation cost on a Peckham Victorian terrace (SE15)?

Accepted Answer

A full renovation on a three-bedroom Victorian terrace in SE15 — rear extension, new kitchen, new bathroom, rewire, replumb, plastering, flooring and decoration — typically runs £130,000–£190,000 and takes 16–22 weeks. TB&D provides an itemised breakdown within 48 hours of the site visit, and one project manager handles the programme from start to sign-off.

Question 4

What party-wall considerations are specific to the Victorian terrace streets in Peckham and Nunhead (SE15/SE15)?

Accepted Answer

Peckham and Nunhead's Victorian terraces in SE15 and SE22 are typically mid-terrace, meaning rear extensions and dormer loft conversions involve both adjoining party walls simultaneously. TB&D Construction serves Party Wall Act notices on both neighbours as standard and manages the two-month notice period for structural work affecting the shared walls. In the Old Nunhead conservation area, some boundary walls have additional significance as original stock brick structures, and TB&D reviews these before specifying foundation or wall-bearing approaches.

Question 5

What renovation project capabilities does TB&D Construction offer across the Southwark borough?

Accepted Answer

Southwark's housing spans converted Victorian warehouses in Bermondsey (SE1), the Dulwich conservation area's larger Victorian villas (SE21/SE22), Victorian and Edwardian terrace streets in Peckham (SE15) and Camberwell (SE5), and modern apartment blocks around Elephant & Castle. TB&D Construction delivers full flat renovations and bespoke joinery in converted warehouse spaces, full house renovations and rear extensions on SE15 terraces, conservation-appropriate works in SE21 and SE22, and kitchen and bathroom refits across all Southwark postcodes. TB&D holds a 9.92/10 Checkatrade rating and £1m PL and £5m EL insurance.
