Listed Building Refurbishment in Mayfair.
Listed houses reward care and punish shortcuts. We have refurbished Grade I listed houses on the Regent's Park terraces and Grade II houses across central London, and the approach is the same each time: understand what is significant about the building, design interventions that are reversible and well detailed, and secure listed building consent before work starts.
In practice that means new kitchens and bathrooms that do not damage historic fabric, services run in existing voids, sash windows repaired rather than replaced, and plasterwork, joinery and floors restored by trades who work on listed buildings every week. Modern comfort and a historic interior are not in conflict if the detailing is right.
For a property in Mayfair we check the National Heritage List and the conservation area maps published by the City of Westminster at the first visit, explain exactly what is protected, and prepare the heritage statement, drawings and application. Conservation officers generally support schemes presented this way.

Mayfair: the houses and the planning rules.
Mayfair is Georgian London at its grandest: the Grosvenor Estate's squares and streets, five-storey townhouses on Mount Street and South Audley Street, mews behind, and later mansion blocks and apartment buildings. Most houses are Grade II listed, the whole district is a conservation area, and the Grosvenor Estate exercises its own control over many properties.
We have fitted kitchens on South Audley Street, working with ebony veneers, Corian and Miele appliances in rooms with original cornices and shutters. Projects here are logistically demanding: restricted parking, timed deliveries, concierge buildings and neighbours who expect a quiet, tidy site.
The Mayfair Conservation Area covers the whole district.
Westminster City Council
Planning and listed building consent are decided by Westminster, with Historic England consulted on the most significant houses.
Grosvenor Estate
Where the freehold is held by the Grosvenor Estate, its own consent and design guidance apply in addition to the council's.
Basements
Westminster's basement policy limits depth and extent under gardens and requires a Basement Impact Assessment.
