Side Extension with Underfloor Heating in Blackheath – Humber Road

On Humber Road, the brief was to open up and extend the back of the house at ground floor level, and renew a first-floor bathroom at the same time.

At a glance

• Location: Blackheath
• Time on site: 18 weeks
• Our role: Main contractor

What the work involved

• A new side extension and complete refit of the rear ground floor
• New steelwork to open up the space
• New concrete floors with underfloor heating
• A new party wall to the neighbouring property
• Rooflights to bring daylight deep into the plan
• Complete renewal of all mechanical and electrical services
• Renewal of a first-floor bathroom

The challenge

Side extensions in terraced and semi-detached streets usually involve the neighbours. A new party wall means agreeing the work properly before it starts, and the steelwork and new floors have to be sequenced so the family keeps a working home for as long as possible.
