The approach
The house kept the features that give it character, like the exposed timber beams under the sloping roof, and renewed everything around them. Herringbone flooring runs through the hallways, living spaces and bedrooms, so the whole house reads as one.
The bathrooms are the showpieces. One has a walk in shower lined in large marble effect porcelain with a linear drain, a lit niche and brushed brass fittings. The other has a freestanding bath under a roof window. A brass framed arched glazed screen brings borrowed light into the hallway.
One floor finish across every level, laid with straight, tight joints.
Marble effect porcelain, brushed brass brassware and wall hung fittings.
Bedrooms and a study under exposed beams and roof windows, with fitted wardrobes and a window seat.

Scope of works
No separate plumber, electrician and tiler to coordinate. We managed every trade and every stage of this renovation, in the right order.

Walls, openings and structural work carried out to the agreed drawings.
Plumbing, heating and electrics rerun to suit the new layout.
Walls and ceilings plastered, floors levelled and prepared for finishes.
Kitchen, bathrooms and built in joinery installed and finished.
Fittings, lighting and decoration completed, then snagged together before handover.
How we manage a full house renovation
On a whole house project, what worries homeowners most is not the finishes. It is the coordination, the disruption and whether the job finishes as agreed. This is how we run it.
We see the property, check access, structure and services, and talk through what you want the space to do.
A clear, itemised quotation. What is included, what is not, and who is responsible for what, agreed before we start.
Drawings, approvals, materials and lead times confirmed, so the build runs in the right order.
Carried out in sequence by our own team, with each stage checked before the next one starts.
One point of contact throughout. You know what is happening this week and when we need a decision from you.
We walk the finished project with you and resolve any points before we sign it off.

It depends on the size of the house, the amount of structural and layout work, the condition of the services and the specification of the kitchen, bathrooms and joinery.
After a site visit we give you an itemised written quotation, broken down room by room, so you can see where the budget goes before anything is agreed.
Yes. We plan around the features worth keeping, protect them during the works and make them part of the finished design, as with the exposed beams in this house.
Yes. Herringbone needs a flat, level subfloor and careful setting out from the centre of each room, so the pattern runs straight through doorways. We prepare the floors and lay them as part of the renovation.
We manage the whole renovation: structural work, plumbing, heating, electrics, plastering, flooring, kitchens, bathrooms, joinery and decoration. You deal with one team and one point of contact.
It depends on the size of the property, the amount of structural work and lead times on materials. We confirm a realistic programme after the site visit and review it with you as the work progresses.
Often, yes, depending on the scope. We plan the programme so you know when water, power or access will be affected, protect the rest of the home and keep the site tidy. For the largest projects we discuss at the site visit whether moving out for part of the build makes sense.
We work with your architect on the drawings and approvals, and arrange Building Control inspections at the right stages of the build, so the work is signed off properly at the end. Party wall matters are handled through a party wall surveyor where needed.
