Who the plans are for in Lambeth
Whether you own a terrace, a converted flat or a larger house, a loft, rear extension or reworked layout starts with an accurate set of existing floor plans.
Our measured building survey in Lambeth captures the building, and we draw from that record.
65 Lambeth entries on the national conservation-area register
Our analysis of the MHCLG Planning Data Platform conservation-area dataset (snapshot retrieved 14 Aug 2026) finds 65 conservation-area entries for Lambeth on the national register. The figure is borough-wide, so your own road may or may not be covered.
Check your road on Lambeth's conservation area map before settling the design. Our guide to conservation area extension rules explains what changes when a street is designated.

How Lambeth decides householder cases
Our analysis of MHCLG planning application statistics, table PS2 (released 24 Sep 2026), shows Lambeth made 595 householder decisions, including prior approvals, over the four quarters from 2025 Q3 to 2026 Q2.
Across those quarters, 94% of householder decisions, excluding prior approvals, came within 8 weeks.
The national rules every Lambeth sheet meets
Planning practice guidance on gov.uk says plans and drawings must be drawn to an identified scale, with north shown on plans, and that a location plan should typically be 1:1250. We apply the same standard to every Lambeth job.
