Garage conversion in Hammersmith

Hammersmith is London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham's georgian terraces along upper + lower mall + victorian + 1930s art deco mansion blocks submarket. Hammersmith's Upper and Lower Mall contain some of the oldest surviving Georgian riverside houses in London (1700-1780) — Grade II* in many cases — and LBC here routinely requires archaeological watching briefs during any floor excavation because of the pre-Georgian riverfront archaeology.

What a garage conversion project looks like here

Hammersmith's Upper and Lower Mall contain some of the oldest surviving Georgian riverside houses in London (1700-1780) — Grade II* in many cases — and LBC here routinely requires archaeological watching briefs during any floor excavation because of the pre-Georgian riverfront archaeology.

Because Lower Mall sits at ~4.6m AOD and the Thames tidal flood datum is 5.1m AOD, basement conversions on the Mall are effectively impossible without significant mitigation — the Environment Agency refuses habitable-room basements here as a matter of policy.

Art Deco mansion blocks like Queen's Wharf (1931) have shared concrete-rib floor construction — running a new MEP riser here requires block-level leaseholder consent alongside freeholder consent, a workflow that most high-street conveyancers miss at purchase.

Permitted Development Class A or planning consent under Article 4 — Building Regs Part A (structure), L (energy), F (ventilation) on integral-garage habitable conversion. In Hammersmith specifically, georgian terraces along upper + lower mall + victorian + 1930s art deco mansion blocks stock means garage conversion scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's London scoping flow factors hammersmith mall conservation area and high grade ii listing density on upper + lower mall into the estimate before a contractor is involved.

Origin

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.
