Do I need planning permission for a West Brompton renovation?
Usually no — most internal renovations only need building regulations approval. The Earls Court and Brompton Cemetery conservation areas overlap parts of SW10; expect full planning on most loft applications. If you're in a conservation area or your property is listed, listed-building consent may be needed for layout changes, sash-window replacement or chimney works. We check the specific address before quoting.
What's the typical West Brompton housing stock for refurbishments?
Three- and four-storey Victorian terraces, many converted to flats but a meaningful share still single-family. On this kind of housing in SW10, whole-house refurbishments most commonly involve new layout (often opening up the ground floor), full rewire, new heating, new kitchen and bathrooms, and finishes throughout. Period restoration is more common on listed properties and conservation-area frontages.
How long does a West Brompton renovation take?
Allow 4–10 weeks for design and procurement, then 6–10 weeks on site for a kitchen, 3–5 weeks for a bathroom, 4–8 months for a whole-house refurb, and 8–14 months for period restoration. Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea processes building control approvals in parallel with construction.
Can I live in the house during a West Brompton renovation?
Single-room or single-bathroom: usually yes. Whole-house refurb: almost always no — dust, services downtime and security make it impractical. Most West Brompton clients rent locally for 3–6 months during the works. We coordinate the programme with break clauses so you're not paying double rent at the end.
