What to expect locally
Borough by borough rules
Each borough publishes its own design guidance for extensions, and many have Article 4 directions that remove some permitted development rights, so a rear extension allowed in one street can need full planning in the next. We check your exact address before anything is drawn.
Conservation areas and terraces
Large parts of inner London sit in conservation areas, and Victorian and Edwardian terraces dominate many boroughs. Side return, rear and loft extensions here are judged closely on materials, roof form and the effect on neighbours, which is where a carefully drawn set makes the difference.
Basements and party walls
Several central boroughs have specific policies on basements, and almost every terraced or semi-detached project in London involves party wall notices. We draw with both in mind so your builder and neighbours are not surprised later.

Quick answers
Which council do I apply to in London?
The council for the borough your property is in. London has 32 boroughs plus the City of London, each a separate planning authority. Send us your postcode and we confirm which one and what it expects.
Is my London home in a conservation area?
Many are, particularly in inner boroughs. It changes what you can build without full planning permission. We check the conservation area, any Article 4 direction and listed status as part of your free route check.
Do I need a party wall agreement for my extension?
If you build on or near a shared wall or boundary, the Party Wall Act usually applies. It is separate from planning. We flag it early and our drawings show the party wall details your surveyor will need.
