Chartered building surveyors and RICS regulated consultancy across Fitzrovia

Fitzrovia is a mixed Camden and Westminster district of Georgian townhouses and Victorian commercial buildings around Charlotte Street, with a strong media and hospitality character. Our RICS regulated chartered surveyors provide building surveys, party wall awards, dilapidations, defect diagnosis, fire safety consultancy and project advisory across Fitzrovia W1T.

We survey the full range of Fitzrovia property — Georgian townhouses, Victorian commercial buildings, mixed-use premises and mansion flats around Charlotte Street, Cleveland Street and Tottenham Court Road.

Our advice is used by homeowners, leaseholders, occupiers, managing agents and developers across W1T.

Local Property Context

Property and surveying conditions in Fitzrovia

Fitzrovia’s Georgian and commercial stock, mixed use and strict shopfront controls create a distinctive surveying picture.

Local Building Stock

Georgian townhouses, Victorian commercial buildings, mixed-use premises and mansion flats around Charlotte Street, Cleveland Street and Tottenham Court Road. The mix of residential, office and hospitality use means surveys are scoped to use as well as construction.

Georgian Basement Damp

Georgian basement and lower-ground areas are prone to damp from a high water table. We diagnose penetrating damp, rising damp and condensation separately and recommend proportionate, breathable remedies.

Shop Fronts & Signage

Camden is particularly strict on shop fronts, signage and external alterations in Fitzrovia. We advise on condition and the consents needed for shopfront and commercial frontage works.

Party-Wall Settlement

Eighteenth-century party walls can show settlement cracking and historic movement between adjoining buildings. We assess crack patterns and advise whether movement is historic and stable or progressive.

Mixed-Use & Commercial

Much of Fitzrovia is in commercial or mixed use. We provide technical due diligence, dilapidations, schedules of condition and fit-out advice for offices, retail and hospitality premises, with fire-safety support where in scope.

Conservation Consent

The Fitzrovia Conservation Area, with many Georgian and Victorian listed buildings, means most external works need consent. Our reports flag the permissions your works will require.

Getting Here

We reach Fitzrovia via Goodge Street and Tottenham Court Road and inspect across W1T regularly, bringing current local knowledge of the area’s Georgian and commercial stock to each appointment.
