London N6
Builders in Highgate, N6
ERCO Home Improvements carries out period property renovation, bespoke bathroom and kitchen work and extension projects across Highgate, N6 — an area where a large proportion of properties sit within a conservation area and require a more careful approach to consent and detailing.
Property and projects in Highgate
Highgate has one of north London’s larger conservation areas and a housing stock ranging from Georgian townhouses to substantial Victorian and Edwardian villas. Permitted development rights are commonly restricted, and a significant number of properties are listed.
Work here is therefore weighted towards internal refurbishment, sensitive extension where consent allows, and high-specification bathroom, kitchen and joinery work. Materials and detailing carry more weight than elsewhere: replacing a period window with an inappropriate modern unit, or rendering over brickwork that should have been repointed, causes problems that are expensive to undo.
Solid-wall construction is the technical constant. Insulating, ventilating and heating a solid-wall property behaves differently to a cavity-wall house, and treatments that work in a modern build can trap moisture in an older one. That should inform the specification rather than be discovered afterwards.
