Permissions for major refurbishments

[tobiasmenzies]

Hi,
I’ve bought a maisonette in Kentish Town, I’m the leaseholder, with Camden Council as my freeholder, and I have a council flat above me.
I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has advice or experience of gaining permission from Camden Council to significantly refurbish the property, including changing the use and configuration of rooms within the flat. I’m looking for any tips about how to approach the Council, do’s and don’t, how long on average it takes to get such permission once drawings are submitted, what costs might be involved. I would welcome any guidance people have to offer.
Many thanks,
Tobias Menzies
