Why Clapham homeowners choose DPS for house extensions.

01 · LOCAL KNOWLEDGE

We know the Wandsworth planning quirks.

Conservation areas, Article 4 directions, party-wall hotspots — every Wandsworth street has its own permission map. We have submitted dozens of approved schemes across Clapham and the surrounding postcodes.

02 · ONE TEAM

Architects, builders, project managers — all in-house.

No subcontractor juggling. From the first sketch through structural engineering to final snagging, your project moves through people who all sit in the same office and answer to the same project manager.

03 · TRANSPARENT PRICING

From £2,500 / m² — itemised and fixed.

You pay in stages, only after each stage is signed off. Variations only happen when scope genuinely changes — and they go through written authorisation, never a verbal "while we are at it".
