Frequently Asked Questions

Do you undertake basement construction in Kensington?

Yes. We deliver basement construction and refurbishment projects in Kensington, coordinating excavation, structure, waterproofing, services and interior completion.

Do all basement projects require underpinning?

Not always. The structural solution depends on the existing building, ground conditions and proposed design, so every basement requires project-specific engineering.

What are temporary works in basement construction?

Temporary works are engineered supports used to keep the existing property stable and the site safe until the permanent basement structure is complete.

How do you protect neighbouring properties?

We plan sequencing and temporary support with structural engineers and use monitoring where required to manage movement and protect adjoining buildings.

How is basement waterproofing handled?

The waterproofing strategy is developed around the structure, ground conditions and intended use, with installation coordinated and inspected carefully.

Can a basement include bedrooms or leisure spaces?

Yes. Subject to design and approvals, basements can accommodate living areas, bedrooms, gyms, cinemas, utilities or other specialist spaces.
