Planning in Bexley
Local planning rules for kitchen renovations in Bexley.
Bexley's conservation areas include Old Bexley Village, Lamorbey Park, Danson Park, North Cray and parts of Sidcup. Outside these zones, Bexley is one of London's more planning-friendly boroughs with strong PD rights for 1930s semis — hip-to-gable lofts, rear dormers and 6m rear extensions under prior approval are commonly approved. The borough's Suburban Character Study sets expectations for materials and detailing on extensions visible from the street. Two-storey side extensions are routinely approved subject to the standard 1m setback at first floor.
Our planning team handles the full submission for Bexley addresses including drawings, Design and Access Statements where required, and pre-application consultation with the council. We tell you whether your kitchen renovation is permitted development, prior approval, or full planning before you sign anything.
