Heath Projects is based in neighbouring Blackheath, and a large share of our residential work is in the Royal Borough of Greenwich. We build loft conversions, rear and side extensions and full house renovations, from Georgian terraces in West Greenwich to Victorian villas in Westcombe Park and inter-war semis further south.

Recent work in the borough includes our Westcombe Park Road loft conversion, which created a new bedroom and bathroom inside a conservation area, and our Kidbrooke Gardens project, a major refurbishment with a new two storey rear extension.

Every job is costed by a chartered quantity surveyor before you commit, and one contracts manager and one site manager are accountable from first visit to handover.

Planning and building in Greenwich

  • The Royal Borough of Greenwich has many conservation areas, including West Greenwich, Greenwich Park, Ashburnham Triangle, Westcombe Park, Blackheath Park and Charlton Village.
  • Some of these have Article 4 directions that remove permitted development rights, so windows, roofs, front doors or boundary walls can need planning permission.
  • Maritime Greenwich is a World Heritage Site, and work in its setting, including views to and from Greenwich Park, can get extra scrutiny.
  • Many Georgian and early Victorian houses in West Greenwich and around the park are listed, which means listed building consent for most changes.
  • Outside conservation areas, many rear extensions and loft conversions fall under permitted development, and a Lawful Development Certificate gives you proof.
  • We handle planning advice, building control and party wall notices as part of the job, and check the route for your street at the site visit.

General guidance only — your council has the final say, and we confirm the route for your house at the site visit.
