TFL-Approved Shop Fit-Outs in Highgate.
Retail units in stations are a market of their own. The work is approved by TFL's commercial team and the station operator before it starts, most of it happens after the last train, and the materials have to meet the fire and smoke standards for enclosed stations. We are approved to do this work and have fitted out units at London Bridge, Uxbridge and Acton Central stations and Harrow-on-the-Hill bus station.
For an operator taking a unit at a station serving Highgate, we prepare the drawings, materials schedule, method statements and risk assessments the approval needs, build the counters and joinery off site, and install with our own trades in the access windows the station allows.
The opening date in the lease is the fixed point. We plan the programme backwards from it, book the night-time access in advance and hand over with the certificates the operator and TFL require.

Highgate: the houses and the planning rules.
Highgate village sits on the hill above the Heath, a cluster of Georgian houses around the High Street and Pond Square, with large Victorian villas on the slopes towards the cemetery and Hampstead Lane, and 1930s and modernist houses on the estates around Highgate Wood. The conservation area is one of the oldest in London.
The houses are individual and so are the projects: restoring Georgian interiors, extending Victorian villas across steep gardens, and modernising mid-century houses while respecting their architecture. Two boroughs meet here, and we handle whichever one applies.
The Highgate Conservation Area covers the village and surrounding streets, and many of the older houses are listed.
Camden and Haringey
The borough boundary crosses the village; Camden covers the west side and Haringey the east, each with its own conservation area guidance and application process.
Listed houses
Much of the High Street, the Grove and Pond Square is listed, so internal work needs listed building consent.
Slopes and trees
Steep sites and protected trees affect extensions and basements; a topographical and tree survey is the starting point.
