Renovations, refurbishments and extensions for houses and period properties across Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire and North London, with one team handling the design, the cost and the build.
A renovation usually means working around what is already there: old structure, hidden defects, services that need replacing and features worth keeping.
We renovate and refurbish houses, period properties and listed buildings, and extend them where the plan needs more space. We can build to your architect’s design or take on the whole project as design and build contractor, with our responsibilities agreed in writing before work starts.
We look at the building’s condition, what you want to change and what should be kept, and turn that into a clear scope and budget.
Structural repairs, new steelwork and underpinning, coordinated with your engineer. At Maida Vale, hidden defects found during the work were repaired and the layout reworked.
New heating, electrics, plumbing and drainage, planned around the new layout so extra bathrooms and kitchens fit properly.
Kitchens, bathrooms, joinery and decoration finished properly, then handed over with the documents you need.
If the property is listed or in a conservation area, consent may be needed before work starts. Your architect or planning consultant advises on it, and we build to the approved design.
From the first visit to handover, with one team responsible throughout.

Yes. At Greencroft Gardens the work included two extra floors, and at Tooting the house was extended as part of its conversion.
It happens with most older buildings. We record what we find, explain the options and their cost, and agree any change with you before going ahead.
We are based in St Albans and work across Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire and North London.
