Building work in Amersham
Amersham is really two places in one: the historic Old Town, with its Tudor and Georgian High Street, and Amersham-on-the-Hill, which grew up around the Metropolitan line in the early 1900s. Homeowners here tend to value character, and they want any building work to respect it.
In the Old Town you will find timber-framed and brick period properties, many of them listed or in the conservation area. On the Hill the housing is mostly Edwardian and 1930s semis and detached homes on generous plots, which are well suited to extending.
Projects we are asked to do in Amersham
- Rear and side extensions – Metro-land houses on the Hill usually have room to extend to the side or rear, and a well-planned single-storey extension can transform a cramped kitchen into a family living space.
- Matching period brickwork – In the Old Town, new work needs to blend with existing brick and flint. We take care over brick selection, bond and mortar so repairs and additions sit comfortably alongside the original.
- Kitchen refits – Many Amersham homes have kitchens that have not changed since the house was built, and we regularly rework layouts to open them up to dining areas.
Good to know before you start
If your property is listed or in a conservation area, consent is normally needed even for modest changes. We will tell you honestly what is likely to be involved before any work is priced.
