Construction in Hackney
Hackney combines Victorian terraces, warehouse conversions and new build, and planning attitudes to contemporary rear extensions are generally receptive.
Foxter works throughout Hackney and the surrounding E8 postcode district, covering loft conversions, extensions, whole-house renovations, kitchens, bathrooms, basements, roofing, landscaping and commercial fit-out. Every project is run by one site manager with directly employed trades, so you have a single point of accountability from survey to snagging.
A mix of tight terraced streets and managed developments; in blocks we work to building management rules on lift use, delivery windows and noise hours.
Before we quote we visit the property, measure it and write a scope of works. That matters more in Hackney than a per-metre average, because two houses on the same street can have completely different structure, drainage and consent constraints.

Consents and neighbours
We check permitted development rights, conservation area status and article 4 directions against your address before designing, and we serve party wall notices early so a two-month notice period never delays the programme.
Access and logistics
Skip permits, parking suspensions, protected internal routes, dust screens and agreed working hours are planned and priced before we start in Hackney — not added later as extras.
Price and programme
A fixed price against a written scope, with staged payments tied to milestones. Our instant quotation tool applies a East London area factor so the indicative figure reflects local rates.
