Haringey covers Tottenham, Wood Green, Hornsey, Crouch End and Muswell Hill — Victorian terraces and Edwardian semis across N8, N10, N15 and N17. Structural alterations are extremely common in all these property types.
Common Structural Projects
Chimney breast removal, load-bearing wall removal between kitchen and dining room, and RSJ steel beam installation to open ground floor space. Victorian properties often have load-bearing elements in non-obvious locations — a structural engineer assessment is always required before any structural alteration.
Building Control
All structural alterations require Building Control notification and sign-off. rcbGroup coordinates Building Control as standard.
Extensions in Haringey
Single-storey rear extensions via PD or Prior Approval. Conservation areas around Crouch End and Alexandra Palace may restrict PD rights. Side and double-storey extensions need planning permission.
Costs
Chimney breast removal: £3,500–£6,500. Load-bearing wall with steel: £4,500–£8,500. Rear extension: £40,000–£65,000.
