What a flooring project looks like here
Clapham Common North Side has intact 1840s-1880s Italianate terraces facing the Common — Grade II listed in runs of 20-30 properties — where rear extensions are permitted but roof works are routinely refused on protected-vistas grounds.
Because the Clapham boundary runs through The Pavement, a property on the north side sits in Lambeth while its across-the-street neighbour sits in Wandsworth — Wandsworth's basement policy is currently more permissive than Lambeth's, meaningful when a buyer is choosing between two near-identical terraces.
The Common Act 1899 restricts any works that affect the sightline over Clapham Common — in practice this can affect third-party hoarding during construction, requiring hoarding behind the building line rather than on the Common-facing kerb.

In Clapham specifically, late georgian + victorian terraces (1830-1895) around clapham common + post-war infill stock means flooring scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology.

Who is Baily?
Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.
He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.
That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.
Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
