    FAQs


    Do I need planning permission in Golders Green?

    Almost always. Most extensions, lofts, and external changes require consent — especially in Conservation Areas.


    Can you extend or modernise a heritage property?

    Yes. With sensitive design and robust submissions, we’ve secured approvals for many listed and heritage homes.


    Is basement development possible in Golders Green?

    Yes, but it requires structural and hydrological reports, plus careful consultation with neighbours.


    Do you work with developers as well as homeowners?

    Absolutely. From single-plot infill schemes to larger mixed-use developments, we balance design quality with commercial viability.


    How long does planning take?

    Typically 8–12 weeks, though more complex heritage or multi-unit schemes may require additional consultation time.


    Can you integrate sustainability upgrades?

    Yes. From discreet renewables to fabric-first retrofits, we design for efficiency and comfort.


    Are you only Golders Green Architects?

    No. We operate in many North London areas and surrounding areas, see them here. We also sometimes go further if you have a project that is intriguing – let us know.

      Dor has been incredible to work with on our renovation. He is extremely thorough, very reachable, attentive to detail, and really listens. He and his team put extra care into their work and come to the table organised with well-thought-out questions. We feel we’re in safe hands moving into construction because everything has been planned to such detail ahead of time, with clear direction, problem-solving, and great communication between all teams involved. For any future project, we’re definitely coming back to Dor! 😍
