About building work in Greenwich

Greenwich has one of the most varied building landscapes in South East London. The heritage conservation area around Greenwich town centre and the UNESCO World Heritage Site buffer zone impose meaningful constraints on certain types of external works — particularly extensions that would be visible from the park or the riverfront. Properties in the Blackheath conservation area (SE3) and around Clapham (SE10) require full planning applications for many works that would be Permitted Development elsewhere. Builders experienced in Greenwich understand these constraints and can advise on what is and is not feasible before you invest in detailed drawings.

Away from the conservation zones, Charlton and Woolwich (SE7 and SE18) offer a much more straightforward planning environment. Victorian and Edwardian terraces here are popular for dormer loft conversions and rear kitchen extensions, and the area's relatively competitive build costs make extensions a strong value proposition. The Woolwich regeneration — including the Elizabeth Line station opening — has also generated significant commercial fit-out demand, as new occupiers establish businesses in the town centre and surrounding development areas.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions — builders in Greenwich

How much does a house extension cost in Greenwich?+
A single-storey rear extension in Greenwich (SE10, SE3, SE18, SE7) typically costs £26,000–£52,000. Double-storey extensions range from £47,000–£92,000. The heritage conservation area around Greenwich town centre and the proximity to the park means some properties face additional planning requirements that can add to costs. Charlton and Woolwich properties tend to offer more straightforward builds at the lower end of these ranges.
Do I need planning permission for a loft conversion in Greenwich?+
Many loft conversions in Greenwich fall under Permitted Development, but the conservation area around Greenwich town centre and the World Heritage Site buffer zone mean planning sensitivity is higher than in many other London boroughs. Properties in the Blackheath conservation area (SE3) are also subject to tighter rules. Always check with the Royal Borough of Greenwich planning department before starting work, or ask the builders who respond to your GetQuickHelp post.
