What a water damage reinstatement project looks like here
The Southfields Grid (the orthogonal block of streets between Replingham Road and Standen Road) is one of the most architecturally homogeneous Edwardian developments in south-west London, and roughly 85% of it sits inside the Southfields Grid Conservation Area with a 2014 Article 4 Direction stripping Permitted Development for all rear and roof extensions.
Because the Article 4 covers replacement windows including sash-replacement, even a like-for-like timber sash swap on a Replingham Road property needs a full householder application with a 8-week determination clock, where the same swap in nearby Earlsfield outside the CA would be PD.
The Wimbledon Park-edge Tree Preservation Orders extend roughly 30m into the gardens behind Standen Road, so rear extensions on the eastern Grid streets need an arboricultural impact assessment with Building Regs.

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.
