Understanding Ilford
Predominantly Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing
Most properties built 1890-1920 with solid brick construction and timber joists. Common challenges: settlement cracking, chimney breast removal requests, limited attic space making loft conversions popular.
Clay geology prone to subsidence
London Clay in the IG postcode area means historical subsidence is a concern. Many properties built on shallow foundations. Structural surveys often reveal minor historical movement.
High-value residential extensions market
Premium postcode (IG1 particularly) sees significant investment in extensions and conversions. Open-plan living in high demand. Steel beam specifications are frequently required.
