Architects and Engineers in Whitton

Local knowledge of Whitton's 1930s streets and their extension potential, from first feasibility conversation through to a finished project.

Living and Building in Whitton

Whitton was a place of market gardens and a Georgian estate, home to the painter Sir Godfrey Kneller, until the interwar housing boom covered it with semis, and its High Street is one of the best-preserved 1930s high streets in London.

Diagram X brings AEC (Architecture, Engineering and Construction) together for homeowners across those family streets.

Planning in Whitton

Most of Whitton is typical interwar suburb, so planning questions usually concern extensions, loft conversions and front boundaries, and the area sits beside the Richmond borough boundary where different rules apply.

Permitted development rights, and which borough the property is in, should be checked.

Refurbishing in Whitton

Across the area's interwar semis and detached houses, most interiors have had little meaningful updating in decades, so refurbishment starts from open, light-filled layouts and modern performance.

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

Construction in Whitton

Consistent semi-detached streets and generous rear gardens make wraparound extensions and loft conversions popular, alongside the usual party wall agreements.

We plan for these from the outset, so Whitton's family streets and its individual homes are both well served.
