Planning and consent in SW7

Conservation control and frequent listing across the district, with RBKC basement policy applying to any excavation. Lateral conversions and internal reconfiguration deliver more than external alteration here.

Access and site logistics

Museum-quarter traffic, booked loading, communal gardens with committee rules, and blocks that enforce lift protection and noise hours. Out-of-hours working is arranged in advance where required.

What we are usually asked for here

• Lateral apartment conversions across two or more units
• Whole-flat renovation with new services and acoustic build-ups
• Restoration of protected plasterwork, joinery and sash windows
• Structural alterations supported by engineer's calculations and consent

We survey the property before pricing, confirm the constraints that apply to your specific address rather than the postcode, and issue a fixed price against a written scope. One site manager runs the trades from first fix to snagging.
