We Handle Planning Permission

Most Victorian properties sit within conservation areas, which means that planning permission must be carefully managed before the renovation process can begin. Unlike many house renovation companies, we manage heritage constraints daily for Victorian neighbourhood.

Our experienced team of builders, architects, project managers, and structural engineers takes care of every application and approval on your behalf.

With strong working relationships across London’s local councils and a 100% success rate, we make sure your Victorian house renovation fully complies with restrictions and listed building requirements.
