This page covers the northern part of the borough — Stoke Newington, Stamford Hill, Clapton and Upper Clapton and the streets around them. The stock here is largely Victorian terraces, larger semi-detached villas and period family houses, and we prepare drawings across every one of those types for Hackney Council.
The Stoke Newington and Clapton Common conservation areas cover much of the north, and a large Charedi community in Stamford Hill means household-expansion projects are common — both routes we design to Hackney's requirements. Whichever route your address falls under, we confirm it free at the measured survey and design to match the northern Hackney streetscape — from period rear and side-return extensions to rear-dormer and mansard loft conversions.
