Construction in Stone Grove: local homes and constraints

Stone Grove is the stretch of the A5 Watling Street at Edgware, near Canons Park. Homes in Stone Grove include interwar houses and flats.

With 1930s semis, a hip-to-gable loft conversion and a rear extension can transform the space, and both need careful structural design.

What approvals does construction in Stone Grove need?

Most construction projects in Stone Grove need Building Regulations approval, and many also need planning permission. New houses always need full planning permission, while some extensions can use permitted development.

Planning applications in Stone Grove are decided by the local council for your address, and we can help you check which one that is.

If the work affects a shared wall or involves digging near a neighbour's foundations, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies too; see our guide to the Party Wall Act and the GOV.UK guide to Building Regulations approval.

We line up approvals, structural calculations and any party wall notices before work starts; see how our build process works.

  • All trades under one roof – carpenters, builders, roofers, painters and kitchen fitters in one team.
  • Design to completion – one firm manages your project from groundwork to final finish.
  • Built on recommendations – most of our work comes from repeat customers, referrals and word of mouth.
  • Clean, considerate sites – customers regularly mention tidy sites and work cleared up daily.

“They kept on time and on budget. It was a downstairs kitchen bathroom extension so obviously disruptive but made it as easy as possible.”

Construction in Stone Grove: frequently asked questions

Do you cover Stone Grove?

Yes. Stone Grove is about 12 miles from our base in Hemel Hempstead and sits well within the area we cover, along with nearby Little Stanmore and Stanmore.

Can a 1930s house in Stone Grove take a double-storey extension?

Often, yes, if the plot allows. A two-storey side extension always needs planning permission, and the design has to work with the existing hipped roof and the neighbouring house.

Can you build a new house in Stone Grove?

Yes. We build bespoke new homes, starting with a consultation on layout, specification and finishes. A new house needs full planning permission from the local council and Building Regulations approval, and we build to the approved drawings.

Can you remove a load-bearing wall?

Yes. Removing a load-bearing wall needs a structural engineer's calculations for the new beam and Building Regulations approval. We prop the structure safely, install the beam on padstones and make good, so the room is ready to decorate.

Do I need a party wall agreement?

If the work affects a shared wall, or you dig foundations within 3 metres of a neighbour's building (6 metres in some cases), the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies. You must serve notice: 2 months before work on a party wall and 1 month before excavations.
