Local knowledge

Building work in Letchworth

Letchworth was the world's first garden city, founded in 1903, and much of the town is covered by a Scheme of Management run by the Letchworth Garden City Heritage Foundation. Where that applies, external alterations such as extensions and changes to windows and doors can need the Foundation's consent as well as any planning permission or building regulations approval, so it is worth asking early.

Planning is handled by North Hertfordshire District Council. Recent work in Letchworth includes a kitchen, utility room and fitted home office at Gaunts Way, finished with an epoxy resin floor throughout.

We cover Letchworth from our base in Biggleswade, alongside Baldock and Hitchin.
