Renovation project management in Richmond.
Client-side project management for homeowners extending or renovating in Richmond, where larger plots and conservation villages both shape a project.
Richmond tends to have more garden and side access than the tighter terraces further into central London, which opens up options — wraparound extensions, garden studios and larger loft conversions are all more straightforward where there's room to build without touching a party wall on both sides.
Richmond includes conservation villages and areas close to green belt or protected open land, which can bring additional planning constraints beyond the standard conservation area rules — particularly for anything visible from the common, a park, or the river. Checking a property's specific designation before designing an extension avoids redesigning after a planning refusal.
The bigger the plot, the more design freedom, but also often more scrutiny where a conservation area or park boundary is involved. A short check of the specific designations for a property, before committing to a design, is worth doing before anything else — and exactly the kind of due diligence a project manager handles as a matter of course.
Support at the level Richmond projects need.
From a one-off review of quotes already in hand, to full day-to-day management of the build.
No two projects are the same.
Some homeowners want the full service — quotations reviewed before anything is signed, then day-to-day management right through to snagging. Others simply want the reassurance of having someone they trust on their side during the build, without the fees that come with asking an architect to do it. Most people sit somewhere in between.
So there is no fixed price list. Tell me what you are building in Richmond, where you have got to and how involved you would like me to be, and I am sure we can work something out.

Ben was an absolute godsend and honestly could not have coped without him on our project. He kept everything calm throughout and was only a call away whenever we needed him.
We are so glad we found Ben. He was recommended to us on our street WhatsApp group. If you are considering a project manager for your build, we can’t imagine anyone better. His knowledge and ability to problem solve saved us so much stress and money!
We instructed Ben mid-build as we were finding it too overwhelming with a newborn and work commitments. From our first meeting we knew it was the best money we could spend. Ben was always one step ahead of our builder and saved us so many headaches. We absolutely love our home.
Ben was by far the best thing we invested in for our project — there is no way this could have happened without him. We were not in London for the whole project; everything was done remotely, through Ben and the builders. Recommending him is an absolute no-brainer.
Tell me what you're building, and I'll suggest where to start.
