Recent project in Barkingside
On a recent Barkingside project near Fairlop Waters we designed the structural package for a side-return extension and a kitchen-diner knock-through. The package included a goalpost steel frame for the open-plan ground floor, a new steel beam over the side-return opening, and Building Control-ready drawings the builder used to start work without delay.

Do you cover Barkingside, Fairlop and Aldborough Hatch?
Yes — we treat Barkingside, Fairlop and Aldborough Hatch as one local cluster. We regularly work on properties around Barkingside High Street, Fairlop Waters, and the residential streets towards Aldborough Hatch.
What council handles Building Control in Barkingside?
Barkingside is in the London Borough of Redbridge, so submissions normally go to Redbridge Building Control. We prepare calculations and drawings to suit either Local Authority or Approved Inspector route.
Do you work on extensions and side returns in Barkingside?
Yes. Side-return extensions and rear extensions are common across the 1930s semis around Barkingside. We design the steel frames (goalposts, downstand beams, padstones) and provide the structural calculations Building Control require.
