Water damage reinstatement in Kingston

Kingston is London Borough of Kingston upon Thames's mixed georgian and early-victorian terraces around the market place submarket. Kingston Town Centre's Thames-frontage stock sits in Environment Agency Flood Zone 2 or 3, and basement schemes here need a flood risk assessment plus a sequential test under NPPF Annex 3, adding 6-8 weeks to consent.

What a water damage reinstatement project looks like here

Kingston Town Centre's Thames-frontage stock sits in Environment Agency Flood Zone 2 or 3, and basement schemes here need a flood risk assessment plus a sequential test under NPPF Annex 3, adding 6-8 weeks to consent.

Hampton Court Palace (Grade I listed Royal Palace) holds a 1km statutory setting protection that extends north to cover the southern end of Kingston, which means any tall-building scheme south of the High Street can trigger Historic England consultation.

Kingston's Coronation Stone (a Grade I listed Saxon coronation site) sits in the Guildhall grounds, and the Coronation Stone setting protections affect any scheme within roughly 100m of the Guildhall, including private residential extensions visible from the Stone.

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.
