The objective of this project was to breathe new life into a 60’s built townhouse. We were approached by the architect to carry out the clients’ desire to modernize and upgrade their home.
We added a rear extension and converted the internal garage into a beautiful split level family friendly home, furthermore we created a new garden to provide the clients with privacy from their neighbors and to facilitate their desire for a stronger link between their garden and home.
The clients were very keen to blur the boundaries between inside and out and this project bought the outside in all year round.

Read lessPaul and his team at Hawksmoor Construction have just finished a loft conversion and complete refurbishment of our Victorian terrace house. Paul was constantly calm, reassuring and professional and a real pleasure to work with. His team are a credit to him. Even our neighbours commented on how polite and accommodating they were! He also introduced us to an interior designer who he had worked with before and she was a great help with pulling together all of our design ideas. We couldn’t be happier with our “new house” and have already introduced Paul to some friends. We would not hesitate to recommend Paul and the team at Hawksmoor.
After a successful planning application we had been looking for a builder we could trust for almost 2 years but first impressions were always a let down. We were at the point of giving up when our architect introduced us to Paul Fitzgerald. From the very first telephone conversation Paul was responsive, proactive and understanding. Paul was brilliant at taking the stress out of dealing with structural engineers, building control issues and always made us feel we were in very safe hands, and he and his team came up with a couple of design tweaks that took the refurbishment up a notch. His team is a credit to him – polite, pleasant, engaging, understanding, respectful and go out of their way to help. I underestimated how emotional and stressful surrendering your property to the hands of a builder can be, and Paul and his team understand that too. We encountered many hurdles along the way but Paul’s solutions to every problem made us feel he had our best interests at heart. The result is a home that exceeded our expectations. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Paul and his team, especially to those like me who believed that all builders are the same.
Paul and the Hawksmoor Team have just completed a fantastic loft conversion and renovation of our Wandsworth Victorian home and we are thrilled with the results. Throughout, the team have been an absolute delight to work with communication has always been top notch and open, the quality of the finish and final result is impressive and beautiful. Going into this build with a toddler and a new baby on the way, both working full time, I was very apprehensive and expected many more hurdles than the relatively few mini humps we encountered. This is testament to Paul’s proactive approach and high standards and the trust he has in his team. Now we are back home with the new addition to the family, we could not be more delighted with the work carried out and would heartily recommend Hawksmoor.
I am Senior Designer at Tessuto Interiors. We are based in South West London and regularly work on High End Private Residential Projects. Paul and Hawksmoor Construction have worked on 3 projects for us in the past year. 2 of these projects have been projects that I have been running. Working with Hawksmoor Construction has been great. They are very knowledgeable, approachable and fair. The teamwork on these projects has been very high and this is only achievable by working with contractors that are respectful and communicate well. Both of these projects have been finished to the highest standard, with extremely happy clients. I can not recommend Hawksmoor Construction any higher.
I worked with Paul Fitzgerald from Hawksmoor Construction and his team on a Kensington Olympia 2 bedroom flat refurbishment and having worked with a number of contractors over the years as an interior designer, this experience has been exceptional! Having met industry colleagues as well as clients who have worked with Hawksmoor Construction I didn’t hesitate using them on a personal project. Paul & and his team have exceeded all of my expectations and delivered the project on time and budget. The entire experience couldn’t have been more pleasant and each member of the team went the extra mile on numerous of occasions to ensure the project’s end result was of the highest standard. Their attention to detail and the pride that Paul and his team take in their work is exemplary, making it a joy to work with them and it ensures that all the design and planning can be executed it flawlessly and within time and budget. I highly recommend Hawksmoor Construction and look forward working on many more projects with them."
Hawksmoor have helped us to create exactly the new home that we wanted. We encountered plenty of challenges in our ‘ground up’ build, but Paul and his lovely team rose to the task and navigated us through many engineering and technical issues. We demanded a very high standard of finish and we have not been disappointed – Paul works with millimetre precision and has amassed a team of highly skilled craftsmen. Each member of the team takes an obvious pride in his work and justifiably so. We have really appreciated Hawksmoor’s transparency on costs and the fact that they did not leave the site until the job was done – almost on time (and only late because of unforeseen problems and not because of their failure to get on with the job in hand). Paul always discussed in advance any variations or obstacles encountered, with the result that we ended the project almost exactly on budget. We are delighted with the end product.
Paul and his team did a brilliant job with our kitchen extension. We are delighted with the finished result which is very high quality. Paul really takes pride in his work and made sure we were completely happy with everything - including coming back to the property once the work was finished to deal with any little issues that arose. Paul’s customer service is exemplary and maintained excellent communication throughout the project. He was very conscious of time and managed the work to the deadline we were working towards. Paul is very practical and a great problem solver and dealt with other issues at our property while doing the extension that other builders had said could not be solved - he somehow made it all work! All of the team worked efficiently and were polite, friendly and tidy
