About Working in Shortlands
Chislehurst and Bickley properties are often larger with original period features worth preserving
Common considerations for Bromley properties:
- Edwardian and 1930s properties with picture rails and dado rails that need matching
- London clay soil causing seasonal movement that affects door frames and floorboards
- Basement conversions in larger properties requiring specialist damp-proofing knowledge
Seasonal tip: London clay beneath much of Bromley expands and contracts significantly with rainfall. This causes seasonal movement in period properties — we allow for this when fitting floors and hanging doors.
