This page covers the southern part of the borough — Isle of Dogs, Canary Wharf, Millwall and Cubitt Town and the streets around them. The stock here is largely high-density docklands towers and new-build apartments, and we prepare drawings across every one of those types for Tower Hamlets Council.
The south is dominated by the Isle of Dogs opportunity area and is almost entirely flatted, so most projects are internal alterations and fit-outs that turn on freeholder consent and Building Control rather than external planning. Whichever route your address falls under, we confirm it free at the measured survey and design to match the southern Tower Hamlets streetscape — from period rear and side-return extensions to rear-dormer and mansard loft conversions.
