Construction Trends in Ealing

Ealing has one of west London's most varied housing mixes. Acton and Southall include dense terraced streets where side returns, rear extensions, and loft work are common. Further out in Hanwell, Greenford, and Northolt, larger post-war semis create more room for double-storey additions, garage conversions, and outbuildings. Around Ealing Broadway and West Ealing, Edwardian family homes often generate higher-spec refurbishment and extension work.
