How much do planning drawings cost in Camden?

Our fixed-fee householder planning package for Camden starts at £840. Full planning applications (major works, change of use, flat conversions) start at £1,750. Camden Council charges a separate statutory fee of £258 for householder or £578 for full dwellinghouse applications.

How long does Camden Council take to decide planning applications?

Once validated, Camden Council aims to decide householder applications within 8 weeks and major applications within 13 weeks — consistent with statutory targets. Our typical end-to-end timeline from instruction to submission is 3–4 weeks.

Does Camden have Article 4 Directions?

Yes — Camden has Article 4 Directions in force. Article 4 removes permitted development for HMO conversions (C3 to C4) across the borough, plus restrictions on basement extensions in 12 conservation areas. Article 4 removes specific permitted development rights that would otherwise apply, meaning full planning permission is required where PD would normally be sufficient. We check Article 4 status for your specific property before quoting.

Which conservation areas are in Camden?

Camden has 40 designated conservation areas, including Hampstead, Primrose Hill, Bloomsbury and others. Planning applications within conservation areas require additional heritage consideration and often a Heritage Statement.

Do I need a planning consultant for Camden?

For most householder work in Camden, a chartered architectural technologist delivers the same planning outcomes as a dedicated consultant — usually at lower cost. Our MCIAT-chartered team handles drawings, submission and agent liaison as one package.
