Al Mamlaka Construction & Fitout is proud to announce the successful completion of a major residential redevelopment located at 17 Holdernesse Road, Balham, London, SW17 7RG. This project represented a significant undertaking, transforming a traditional property into a modern, expansive home through a combination of structural extensions and internal modernization.

With over 15 years of experience serving South London, our team was selected to manage this 6-month journey from initial planning through to the final handover.

The objective was clear: maximize the property’s footprint, improve functional flow, and elevate the aesthetic standard to meet the demands of the Balham property market.

Scope of Work

The project at Holdernesse Road was a full-scale “strip-to-shell” refurbishment. The primary components of the build included:

• Demolition: Safe removal of an existing, outdated extension to clear the way for a more efficient footprint.
• Rear Extension: Construction of a high-specification ground-floor extension to create an open-plan living and dining area.
• Complete Refurbishment: A top-to-bottom internal overhaul, including new flooring, plumbing, and electrical systems.
• Loft Conversion: The integration of a professional extension loft conversion to add essential bedroom and office space.

Key Features & Highlights

One of the standout elements of this project was the seamless integration of the new structural elements with the original character of the home. As a leading loft extension company, we prioritized ceiling height and natural light in the new upper levels.

Whether a client requires a complex mansard loft extension or a versatile side dormer extension, our focus remains on creating spaces that feel like a natural part of the original architecture rather than an afterthought.

The ground floor was reimagined as a hub for family life, featuring a bespoke kitchen renovation and expansive glazing that connects the interior with the outdoor space. Every square meter was optimized for utility and luxury.

Challenges & Solutions

Executing a comprehensive refurbishment and extension within a strict 6-month timeline in a busy residential area like Balham requires meticulous coordination.

Our dedicated team managed the logistical challenges of site access and material deliveries to ensure minimal disruption to the surrounding SW17 community.

By maintaining a single point of contact for the client, we were able to navigate the complexities of structural demolition and simultaneous loft construction without compromising on the project schedule.

Materials & Techniques Used

As an established general contractor and concrete contractor, we utilized premium materials to ensure the structural integrity and longevity of the build.

From high-grade roofing materials for the new loft levels to precision-engineered flooring and custom joinery, every detail was executed with craftsmanship.

Our role as a kitchen and bathroom renovator allowed us to install high-end fixtures that provide both durability and a “luxury boutique” feel.

Project Outcome & Value Delivered

The status of 17 Holdernesse Road is now “Completed,” delivered on time and within the projected budget. The result is a stunning, multi-story residence that boasts significantly increased market value and enhanced curb appeal.

By adding a high-quality extension loft conversion, we successfully turned an underutilized attic into a premium living space, a move that is consistently recognized as one of the best investments for London homeowners.
