Living and Building in Walthamstow

Walthamstow is the borough's civic and commercial centre, with the Victoria line terminus at Walthamstow Central, a long-running street market, streets of Victorian terraces and the open space of Walthamstow Wetlands.

Diagram X brings AEC (Architecture, Engineering and Construction) together for Walthamstow homeowners, from loft and rear extensions to whole-house refurbishments.

Planning in Walthamstow

Walthamstow has several conservation areas, including Walthamstow Village, Orford Road, Walthamstow St James and Lloyd Park, with Article 4 directions in most of them.

Article 4 directions on shops, offices and employment land in and around the town centre also mean changes of use need early checks.

Refurbishing in Walthamstow

Walthamstow's Victorian terraces are well built but often dated inside, so refurbishment starts from opening up light and layout and improving energy performance.

A worthwhile period feature earns its place when retained, but a confidently modern result is always the starting assumption.

Construction in Walthamstow

Tight terraced streets, narrow side access and neighbours close by make logistics and party wall agreements central to most projects.

We plan for these early, so a Walthamstow build is delivered cleanly and on programme.
