Answers to the questions we're asked most about renovations, extensions and accessibility work.
The timeline depends on the project's size. A bathroom may take 2–4 weeks, a kitchen 6–12 weeks, while a full home renovation can take several months.
Not all renovations/extensions require planning permission. Cosmetic work generally doesn't, but extensions, major structural changes, and some exterior alterations may. Check with your local authority before starting or ask us for help!
Planning permission concerns how a building looks and is used, while building regulations ensure the work meets safety, structural, and energy-efficiency standards.
If possible, yes. Renovating before moving in is often easier, quicker, and less disruptive than living through construction.
For smaller projects, usually yes. For major renovations affecting kitchens, bathrooms, or multiple rooms, temporary accommodation may be more comfortable but we will ensure to inform you.
Hidden structural issues, outdated electrical or plumbing systems, water damage, asbestos, and material price increases are common surprises.
Kitchen and bathroom remodels, energy-efficient upgrades, improved insulation, fresh décor, and adding usable living space often provide the best return.
