Builders in Southwark
Surduk Construction builds, renovates and repairs homes across Southwark, with a free site visit and a fixed written quote for every job. Southwark runs from converted wharves on the Thames to leafy Dulwich, so the same borough can call for an apartment refit one week and a family house extension the next.
Local knowledge
Building in Southwark
The homes
The riverside from Bankside to Rotherhithe is a mix of warehouse conversions, post-war estates and modern flats. South of that, Camberwell has Georgian terraces, Peckham, Nunhead and East Dulwich are mostly Victorian terraced houses, and Dulwich has larger detached houses along with mid-century estates.
Planning and the council
Conservation areas are widespread, and in Dulwich many properties also fall under the Dulwich Estate's scheme of management, which requires its own consent for external changes. Check both before altering fronts, windows, trees or driveways.
What we are asked for most
Side-return extensions in East Dulwich and Peckham, loft conversions on Victorian terraces, warehouse flat refurbishments, garden landscaping and patios and period house renovations in Camberwell.
