New home construction in Putney

Putney is London Borough of Wandsworth's victorian + edwardian terraces (1880-1910) + 1930s art deco + post-war infill — thames riverside submarket. Putney Embankment's riverside stock sits below the 5.1m AOD Thames tidal flood datum — any basement or ground-floor habitable-room alteration requires EA Flood Risk Assessment + raised thresholds + sump/NRV fitout, typically £10,000-£18,000 adder.

What a new home construction project looks like here

Putney Embankment's riverside stock sits below the 5.1m AOD Thames tidal flood datum — any basement or ground-floor habitable-room alteration requires EA Flood Risk Assessment + raised thresholds + sump/NRV fitout, typically £10,000-£18,000 adder.

Putney Bridge (Grade II listed, 1886) has a 100m setting corridor — rooftop extensions with views of or from the bridge face setting-of-heritage-asset checks, regardless of the property's own listing status.

Because Putney's 1880s-1910 terraces were built on Thames gravel (not London Clay), tree-root heave is less of an issue here than in most of Wandsworth — basement conversions here run roughly 10-15% cheaper than Clay-sited equivalents in nearby Battersea.

From cleared site through completion — NHBC 10-year warranty, CIL (Community Infrastructure Levy), Section 106 negotiation where applicable. In Putney specifically, victorian + edwardian terraces (1880-1910) + 1930s art deco + post-war infill — thames riverside stock means new home construction scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's London scoping flow factors putney embankment conservation area and thames tidal flood zone 3 along the embankment 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.
