Extensions, loft conversions, renovations and renewables in Streatham, Brixton, Clapham, Kennington, West Norwood and Vauxhall
We have built in Lambeth, and the work is below. One OKPW team designs your project, deals with the council and builds it, from the first drawing to the finished room.
A sensitive industrial conversion: a characterful Victorian factory turned into two finished, self-contained apartments, keeping the London stock brick and arched windows.
Planning here goes to the London Borough of Lambeth. Before we draw anything we check your address: whether it is in a conservation area, whether an Article 4 direction takes away permitted development, and whether the building is listed. Many rear extensions and loft dormers can go ahead under permitted development; where yours cannot, we prepare the drawings and the application for you.
Questions in Lambeth
Do I need planning permission for an extension in Lambeth?
Planning here goes to the London Borough of Lambeth. Many rear extensions and loft dormers in Streatham, Brixton and Clapham can go ahead as permitted development, but a conservation area, an Article 4 direction or a listed building changes that. We check your address against the council's own maps before we draw anything, and prepare any application for you.

Do I need a skip licence or parking permission for building work in Lambeth?
