Delivering a highly ambitious subterranean home through complex structural engineering

Basement Conversion, London

£150,000 Budget

Innovative Basement Apartment Delivered Safely Beneath Existing London Building.

Our client came to us with the ultimate challenge of creating a basement apartment in an existing block in London and nothing illustrates our approach to safety than this highly ambitious project. With space at a premium in London, it makes sense to explore the possibilities of creating homes from beneath existing buildings – and that’s exactly what we did here.

Safety of the existing building above the new apartment was of course paramount and we were delighted to deliver this project successfully. Whilst we’d normally share images of the finished project, we are so proud of the construction process we used here that we thought you’d like to see this too.

Basement Apartment Delivered Through Complex Structural Works.

Access to space was restricted, with no parking on site, the facade had to be pinned to the core before cutting and we had to underpin the structure and pour concrete in a challenging environment. The installation of vibration and movement detection was required throughout the building.

The East On team managed dilapidations in the existing block plus internal finishes, furniture and joinery plus the final landscaping.
