Planning permission and your renovation
Many London renovations need planning permission, listed building consent or a lawful development certificate before building work starts, especially in conservation areas. The rules differ from borough to borough.
How we work with planning
Architectural design and planning applications are prepared through our related group service, Hampstead Architecture. At your feasibility visit we talk through whether your project is likely to need permission and how that affects the programme.
Check any application yourself
Every planning application in England is public. Search your council’s planning portal by address or reference.
