Steel and metal balconies for London

What London customers ask us for

• Rear balconies on Victorian and Edwardian terraces so an upstairs kitchen or lounge opens onto the garden, often paired with a steel stair down.
• Juliet balconies for loft conversions and bedroom French doors in bar, glass or wire, made to the opening.
• Balcony railings on flats and mansion blocks replacing corroded ironwork or bringing guarding up to the current 1100 mm standard.
• Roof terrace balustrades for flat roofs turned into outdoor space, with privacy screens where neighbours are close.
• Walk-on balconies on new builds and conversions for developers and builders, with structural drawings for building control.

Planning in London

Most London boroughs treat a new balcony as an extension that needs planning permission because of overlooking, and conservation areas add their own rules. We have supplied drawings for applications across South and East London, and we design balconies that planners tend to accept: modest depth, slim steel frames, privacy screens on the boundary side. If you are in Bromley borough, our answer on planning a balcony in Bromley covers the council's fees, time limits and design points.

Access and parking

We are used to tight London sites. Balconies arrive on a small lorry in sections that go through the house or over the wall, and are lifted and bolted in a day. We arrange parking suspensions where they are needed and work around neighbours.

Where in London

Bromley, Lewisham, Greenwich, Southwark, Lambeth, Croydon, Sutton and Bexley are home turf. Further afield we take on work anywhere in Greater London, and in central London when the survey stacks up. Being in Bromley rather than in the centre keeps our overheads, and therefore your quote, lower than a central London workshop.
