Home Renovation in Camden

Camden holds two housing markets at once. Around Primrose Hill, Regent's Park and Camden Square are Regency and early-Victorian terraces — stucco at the base, brick above, protected in conservation areas and frequently listed. Along the canal and the old railway lands are warehouses, workshops and depots converted to flats, with exposed structure, deep plans and services that were retrofitted rather than designed in.

The terraces need conservation-grade work: sash windows and stucco repaired rather than replaced, interiors reordered without losing the original plan, and lower-ground floors put to proper use — within a basement policy that Camden applies strictly. The conversions need something else entirely: acoustic separation, insulation against uninsulated shells, ventilation for deep plans with windows on one wall only, and joinery that makes a big open volume into rooms without boxing it in.

We do both, and the discipline is the same — understand what the building is before deciding what to do to it. See interior refurbishment and structural renovation.
