Builders in Croydon

Croydon covers an enormous area of South London — Victorian semis in Thornton Heath and Norbury, larger 1930s detached and semi-detached homes around Purley and Sanderstead, post-war estates in New Addington and Selsdon, and the ongoing regeneration of Croydon town centre itself. Albert Construction works throughout CR0 and CR7, handling house extensions, loft conversions, kitchen renovations, and bathroom refits. The 1930s semis that fill much of mid-Croydon are some of the best candidates for extension work in South London — generous plots, detached structures with real side access, and roof pitches that work for hip-to-gable loft conversions with rear dormers. Double-storey rear extensions on these properties create a larger kitchen on the ground floor and an additional bedroom above, and in most cases this qualifies as permitted development without a planning application. Croydon town centre is changing rapidly, and Albert Construction also carries out commercial work in the area: office fit-outs, retail unit refurbishments, and hospitality builds. Whether it is a family home in Norbury or a commercial premises near East Croydon station, we manage the full project in-house — structural engineer, building control, every trade, fixed price.

Operating locally across Croydon, we have extensive experience extending and renovating Victorian semis, 1930s detached, post-war estates and new-build apartments. Whether your property is near Croydon Town Centre or Boxpark Croydon, we understand the local architecture perfectly. Croydon's large post-war semi stock is ideal for extensions and loft conversions with generous plots.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of loft conversion suits a 1930s semi in Croydon?
A hip-to-gable with rear dormer is the most popular choice for Croydon's 1930s semis — particularly in Norbury, Thornton Heath, and Sanderstead. It maximises the usable loft area and creates a proper master suite at the top of the house. Many qualify under permitted development, and Croydon's larger plots mean there is usually good access for materials and scaffold.
Can I build a double-storey extension in Croydon?
Yes. Many CR0 and CR7 properties have the rear garden depth for a double-storey extension without coming close to the rear boundary limits. A double-storey adds a larger kitchen below and an additional bedroom above — and combining both floors in one project is significantly cheaper than two separate builds. Most qualify under permitted development.
Do you carry out commercial fit-outs near East Croydon?
Yes. Croydon town centre and the East Croydon station area have strong commercial demand and we carry out office fit-outs, retail unit refurbishments, and hospitality builds in the area. All work is managed in-house, fixed-price from quotation.
How much does a house extension cost in Croydon?
A single-storey rear extension in Croydon typically costs £30,000–£48,000 — slightly more competitive pricing than inner London due to plot sizes and access. A double-storey ranges from £48,000–£70,000. We provide a fixed-price, itemised quotation after your free site survey.
