Garage conversion in Camden Town
Camden Town is London Borough of Camden's victorian terraces + 1990s-2000s camden market regeneration + regent's canal setting submarket. Regent's Canal is a designated heritage asset with a 30m setting corridor — new-build flats and extensions within that corridor require Canal & River Trust consultation on top of Camden planning, typically adding 4-6 weeks.

Camden Town's 1990s regeneration created a high concentration of mixed-use buildings (residential over retail) where the fire-compartmentation upgrades under the Fire Safety Act 2021 are routinely a surprise cost at lease renewal.
Because many Camden Town terraces have original ground-floor shopfronts (Local Listed), converting a ground floor from retail to residential use requires Local List consent alongside planning — and Camden's policy is to refuse this on heritage-townscape grounds.
Permitted Development Class A or planning consent under Article 4 — Building Regs Part A (structure), L (energy), F (ventilation) on integral-garage habitable conversion. In Camden Town specifically, victorian terraces + 1990s-2000s camden market regeneration + regent's canal setting stock means garage conversion scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology.

Who is Baily?
Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.
He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.
That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.
Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
