Planning questions we hear in Wandsworth

Do I need planning permission for an extension in Wandsworth?
Many single-storey rear extensions fall within permitted development, but Wandsworth's conservation areas and any Article 4 directions change that. We check the property's status before advising.
How long does Wandsworth council take to decide a householder application?
The statutory period is 8 weeks from validation. Allow 10 to 12 weeks in practice, and longer if the application goes to committee.
Which parts of Wandsworth are conservation areas?
Wandsworth's Housing SPD sets detailed rules on roof extensions and dormers on terraces.
