Secondary Glazing in Fitzrovia
Fitzrovia is split between Westminster (south of Mortimer Street) and Camden (north). Its Georgian and Victorian fabric shelters advertising agencies, media studios and residential mansion blocks that share walls with restaurants and late-night venues along Charlotte Street and Goodge Street.
Property types we serve
Georgian townhouses (some converted to offices), red-brick Edwardian mansion blocks, media agency studios, boutique restaurants.
Mixed-use late-night noise
Restaurant plant noise and street-drinker noise from Charlotte Street and Goodge Street routinely exceed 65 dB after 22:00. Bedrooms directly above venues need Rw 45+ dB.
Media studio acoustics
Post-production and voice-over studios need Rw 48+ dB to meet EBU R 128 background-noise floors.
Dual LPA area
The Camden/Westminster boundary runs east–west through Fitzrovia — check which authority governs each address before submitting.
