Construction & renovation in Gerrards Cross

Your local builder in Gerrards Cross

Gerrards Cross is a detached-house town. It grew after the 1906 railway into one of the country's most affluent commuter communities, and the streets around the high street, the Common and East Common hold large Edwardian, interwar and modern executive homes on generous plots. We work on these properties regularly, and our base in Harefield is a short drive south, so a site visit, a delivery or a foreman's morning check is straightforward to arrange. Home renovations, house extensions and premium driveways are the work we are asked for most here.

Most of what we build in Gerrards Cross sits within the Green Belt, where what you can add is carefully bounded. We handle the planning with Buckinghamshire Council on your behalf, from pre-application discussion through to conditions, and we know how the authority treats extensions, replacement dwellings and outbuildings on these plots. The result is a single team running the renovation, the extension or the new driveway and patio from first drawing to final clean.

Local knowledge

Building in Gerrards Cross

We tailor every project to the homes, ground and planning context of Gerrards Cross — here's what that means in practice.

The homes we work on here

  • Large detached houses on generous plots — the town is a premium detached market rather than a terraced or listed old-town core.
  • Edwardian and interwar villas built up after the 1906 railway, many with mock-Tudor and Arts-and-Crafts detailing.
  • Cavity-brick construction with clay-tile roofs, alongside substantial modern executive builds.
  • Mature, sizeable gardens that lend themselves to extensions, leisure additions and high-end landscaping.

What Gerrards Cross homeowners ask us to solve

  • Extensions, basements and leisure spaces — pools, gyms and garaging — on the large plots the town is known for.
  • Whole-house renovation and sympathetic modernisation of Edwardian and interwar villas without losing their character.
  • Replacement dwellings and high-spec rebuilds worked carefully within Green Belt limits.
  • Limescale and the steady wear of very hard chalk water on bathrooms, kitchens and heating systems.
Why Hangard

Why Gerrards Cross homeowners choose us

What sets us apart in Gerrards Cross isn't a sales pitch — it's knowing the homes, the ground and the planning here, and building accordingly.

Built for the detached-house market

Our work here is large extensions, basements and leisure additions on generous plots, not the terraced and side-return jobs of inner London.

Green Belt planning, handled

We take extensions, outbuildings and replacement dwellings through Buckinghamshire Council and know how the Green Belt shapes what can be approved.

Founded on chalk and clay-with-flints

We design foundations and basements for the town's free-draining chalk with its clay-with-flints capping, allowing for the localised ground movement it can bring.

Specified for very hard water

Renovations and new bathrooms here are detailed with limescale in mind, from fittings and surfaces to the protection of heating and hot-water systems.
