WEST LONDON BASEMENTS 

Since 2010, #nu and our delivery partners have delivered complex basement projects across prime West London, coordinating design, engineering, waterproofing, temporary works and construction with clear cost and programme reporting.  From single-storey excavations to deeper schemes using underpinning or piling, each project is designed around the property, ground conditions and neighbouring structures. Movement risk is managed through proper engineering, temporary works and monitoring.

​

Prime London and especially Fulham, Chelsea, South Kensington, Mayfair, and Belgravia lack natural space as a modern urban environment. For property owners, often, the only realistic option for producing this extra space is digging a basement under the footprint of their home. 

​

#nu has worked on West London basement construction since 2010. Detailed knowledge of local planning policy, access constraints and neighbour considerations distinguishes #nu as a valuable service for homeowners looking to create a more spacious family environment.

​

We have successfully excavated and developed basements for many clients to create bedrooms, utility rooms, cinemas, wine cellars, swimming pools, gyms, saunas, and self-contained flats, which have added significantly to their peace of mind when living in the properties.

​

Each London borough has its own conditions for building basements, including traffic management plans,  site construction management plans, soil testing, detailed structural engineering calculations, eco-home assessments, flood risk assessments, and other documents prepared by specialist consultants.

​

The required surveys, engineering and supporting reports can add significant professional fees, so feasibility and planning risk should be assessed before the design is fixed. Our team can coordinate the necessary consultants and advise on what may be achievable at your property.
