Question 1

What renovation types are most common on the large Edwardian semis in Cheam (SM3)?

Accepted Answer

The substantial Edwardian and interwar semis around Nonsuch Park and the quieter SM3 roads are among the largest housing stock in the borough — plots wide and deep enough to accommodate side extensions, rear kitchen additions and hip-to-gable loft conversions within permitted development limits. Full house renovations on these properties often combine structural work with a full kitchen refit, full bathroom refit and boiler installation in a single programme. TB&D provides itemised quotes within 48 hours.

Question 2

Are there conservation restrictions in Sutton that affect rear extensions?

Accepted Answer

Sutton borough has conservation areas around the town centre and in parts of Carshalton (SM5), where the historic village core and Carshalton Ponds are protected. Properties within these conservation areas may face restrictions on external alterations. Most suburban streets in SM1 and SM2 are not conservation-designated and fall under standard permitted development rules. TB&D checks each address before quoting.

Question 3

Do you cover all of Sutton's SM postcodes?

Accepted Answer

Yes — TB&D Construction covers SM1, SM2, SM3, SM5 and SM6 across the Sutton borough. One project manager handles each project from the initial site visit through to Building Regulations sign-off. We carry £1m public liability and £5m employer's liability insurance on every job and have passed all 12 Checkatrade vetting checks.

Question 4

What party-wall obligations apply to extensions on Sutton's Edwardian and interwar semis?

Accepted Answer

The semi-detached houses across SM1, SM2 and SM3 — including the large Edwardian stock around Nonsuch Park — each share a single party wall with the adjoining property. Any rear extension or side addition that bears on or builds along that wall triggers the Party Wall Act, requiring a notice to the neighbour before work begins. TB&D Construction prepares and serves the notice and coordinates with any surveyor the neighbour appoints, with the goal of keeping the party-wall process from extending the overall project timetable.

Question 5

What renovation project types does TB&D Construction deliver across the Sutton borough?

Accepted Answer

Sutton's housing includes large Edwardian and interwar semis around Cheam (SM3), Victorian terrace streets in Sutton town centre (SM1), and the Carshalton village conservation area (SM5) with its distinctive period cottages and larger houses. TB&D Construction carries out hip-to-gable and dormer loft conversions, rear kitchen extensions, full house renovations combining structural and fit-out works, full flat renovations in apartment blocks, and boiler replacements via our Gas Safe registered partner. TB&D holds a 9.92/10 Checkatrade rating and carries £1m PL and £5m EL insurance.
