Whether you’re rebuilding a boundary wall or preparing for an extension, sound groundwork is non-negotiable. Our team delivers engineered footings and foundations across W4, with tidy excavation and accurate setting-out. We regularly work near Chiswick High Road and around Chiswick House, where access and neighbour considerations matter. Expect clear communication, safe site management and a finish ready for the next trade.
Chiswick’s Georgian houses, Victorian villas and Edwardian family homes often come with mature gardens, shared boundaries and older drainage runs. That can mean careful trial holes, protection of existing services, and foundations designed to suit the structure above. We’re experienced with wall footings, pier footings and strip footings for garden buildings, retaining walls and structural landscaping. If you’re close to Hammersmith, Acton, Kew or Gunnersbury, we can coordinate deliveries and pours around tight streets and parking controls.
We start with a site visit, levels check and an engineering-led plan for depth, width and reinforcement. Excavation is completed cleanly, spoil removed promptly, then steel is fixed and concrete poured to the specified mix and finish. We work to Building Regulations requirements and can liaise with Building Control where needed. Homeowners choose us for dependable scheduling, transparent scope, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Working in the London Borough of Hounslow means factoring in access, parking restrictions and delivery windows, especially around busy routes like Chiswick High Road. Ground conditions can vary between made ground near older properties and heavier clay that needs careful depth control. We protect existing drains and services, and we plan spoil removal to keep pavements and driveways clear. This is why clients looking for footings & foundations in the Chiswick area value a methodical, compliant approach.

Costs vary with depth, access, spoil removal and the type of footing. As a guide in W4, small wall footings might start around £900–£2,000, while strip footings for a garden room or extension can be £3,000–£9,000+. Reinforcement, concrete volume, skips/haulage, and any engineering or Building Control requirements will affect the total. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most jobs take 1–3 days for smaller wall or pier footings, and 3–7 days for larger strip footings including excavation, steel fixing and concrete pour. Timescales depend on access for machinery, depth required, weather, and whether we need trial holes to confirm ground conditions. Concrete curing is separate; you can often build carefully after a few days, but full strength develops over weeks.
Footings themselves usually fall under the wider project, and many garden structures or boundary works can be permitted development. However, Building Regulations may still apply where the work is structural, close to boundaries, or supports an extension. In the London Borough of Hounslow we’ll help you check what’s required, including Building Control inspections, party wall considerations, and any constraints affecting properties near landmarks such as Hogarth's House.
Yes. Our work is covered by a 10-year warranty for workmanship on installed footings and foundations, including correct installation of reinforcement and concrete placement to the agreed specification. It covers defects arising from our installation rather than issues caused by later alterations, overloading, or third-party work. We also keep records of depths, steel placement and pour dates to support any future queries.
We install wall footings, pier footings and strip footings, selected to suit loads, ground conditions and the structure above. Options include different concrete strengths, reinforcement layouts, and stepped foundations for sloping sites. Where needed, we work from an engineer’s design and adjust for on-site realities like drains, tree roots or restricted access. If you’re comparing approaches for footings & foundations in London Borough of Hounslow, we’ll explain the pros and cons clearly.
