Builders and renovators in Hampstead.
Hampstead's Georgian lanes and large Victorian and Arts and Crafts houses sit almost entirely within a conservation area. CAP designs and builds extensions, lofts, basements and full refurbishments across Hampstead, with one team from planning through to aftercare.
What a project in Hampstead usually involves.
Hampstead is almost entirely conservation area, with many listed buildings, and the council expects a basement impact assessment for any excavation.
The properties we are asked about in Hampstead are mostly Georgian houses, Victorian villas and Arts and Crafts homes. Around Hampstead Heath, Flask Walk and Church Row, the character of the street shapes what can be built, and we design to suit it.
Planning applications in Hampstead are decided by Camden Council. Whatever the project, we check which consents your property needs before recommending any spend on drawings.

Almost certainly. Nearly all of Hampstead is conservation area and many houses are listed, so extensions, roof alterations and often replacement windows need consent. Camden also requires a basement impact assessment for any excavation, covering the ground conditions, groundwater and the effect on neighbouring buildings. We establish what your property needs before design begins.

Camden Council. Building regulations approval can come from the council's building control team or from a registered building control approver, and we arrange whichever suits the project.
