If you long to live in a home where the heating is efficient, the windows are draught-proof, the walls are smooth, where you can enjoy a state-of-the-art kitchen and bathrooms the chances are you are thinking about a new build.
This needn’t be the case. We are always helping customers who like older properties and who also like all the luxuries of a modern home. For them a full house refurbishment is the answer.
It is a perfect opportunity to take a look at the layout of your home and decide if you need to knock through and create fewer, larger rooms or, equally, divide a space into more rooms. Maybe complete reconfiguration is required or simply moving the kitchen to a more central position. It is worth thinking how your home will work best for your family and getting the full potential out of the space.
What to expect from a full refurbishment
A full refurbishment will typically include a strip out and removal of all old materials. We then address the structural work, that is the ceilings, floors and walls, using that time to think about door positions, light fittings, fitted shelves and cupboards. Heating is a big consideration too with the cost of fuel and we will assess the best method of heating your home and include it seamlessly into the works. Fitting the kitchen and bathrooms into the newly prepared spaces gives plenty interior design opportunities as do the final coats of fresh paint.
How much does a full home refurbishment cost?
The starting price for this sort of refurbishment is in excess of £100,000 and while that might sound a lot, compare it to the cost of a series of smaller improvements over the course of several years and it starts to make sense. Especially when you think of the coordinated results you can expect when doing all the work in one go.
For this work to be carried out efficiently you and your family will need to move out of the property for the duration of the works. Our customers will typically find a short-term rental property or may have the opportunity to stay with family or friends. What you can be sure of is that we will work efficiently and remain focussed on your project until it is finished and ready for you to move back into.
