Kitchen remodelling in Richmond upon Thames

Richmond upon Thames is London Borough of Richmond upon Thames's georgian (1730-1810) terraces around the green submarket. The London View Management Framework Strategic View 7B-1 (King Henry's Mound to St Paul's) cuts directly through Richmond Hill, which means any rear extension on the Hill that adds height above 18m relative to the Mound's reference plane can trigger a GLA referral even on a single-property scheme.

What a kitchen remodelling project looks like here

The London View Management Framework Strategic View 7B-1 (King Henry's Mound to St Paul's) cuts directly through Richmond Hill, which means any rear extension on the Hill that adds height above 18m relative to the Mound's reference plane can trigger a GLA referral even on a single-property scheme.

Richmond Park is a Royal Park under the Royal Parks Act 1832, and the park-edge Tree Preservation Orders extend roughly 50m into the gardens of Petersham Road, Star and Garter Hill, and Richmond Hill, so rear extensions there routinely need arboricultural impact assessments alongside Building Regs.

The Georgian terraces around Richmond Green typically have shallow brick footings at 0.6-0.8m on Thames terrace gravel, which is unusually permeable; basement schemes here almost always need pumped sump systems rather than gravity drainage, adding roughly 8-15% to basement waterproofing costs.

Period kitchens in Georgian / Victorian / Edwardian terraces — Building Regs Part F (ventilation), Part J (combustion), Part P (electrical) and Gas Safe certification on any gas-hob relocation. In Richmond upon Thames specifically, georgian (1730-1810) terraces around the green stock means kitchen remodelling scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology.

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.
