What a project in Streatham usually involves.

Streatham is a mix of ordinary residential streets and pockets of conservation area, so what can be built without a full planning application changes from one road to the next.

The properties we are asked about in Streatham are mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces and semis, inter-war houses and mansion flats. Around Streatham Common, the Rookery and Streatham High Road, the character of the street shapes what can be built, and we design to suit it.

Planning applications in Streatham are decided by Lambeth Council. Whatever the project, we check which consents your property needs before recommending any spend on drawings.

Questions

Building in Streatham.

Do you work in Streatham?

Yes. Streatham is home: our office is on Mitcham Lane, SW16 6NG. The work we are asked about here is mostly on Victorian and Edwardian terraces and semis, inter-war houses and mansion flats.

Do I need planning permission to extend or alter a property in Streatham?

It depends on the street. Outside the conservation areas, many rear extensions and loft conversions to houses in Streatham can be built under permitted development, and a lawful development certificate confirms it. Inside a conservation area, or for a flat, a planning application is usually needed. We check which applies to your address first.

Which council decides planning applications in Streatham?

Lambeth 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.
