Planning in Kensington and Chelsea

What to know before building work in the borough

Conservation areas
Nearly three quarters of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea is covered by 38 conservation areas. Changes to windows, doors, roofs and front gardens may need permission. Check the council’s conservation area maps.
Extensions
Permitted development rights for side extensions do not apply in conservation areas, and flats have no permitted development rights for extensions.
Managed buildings
Commercial units in managed buildings come with a landlord’s fit-out guide covering working hours, deliveries and fire alarm connection. We read it before we price.
