Flat Refurbishment for Brent Property

Willesden and Kilburn Victorian terraces, Wembley new-build flats and one of London’s largest HMO markets — we deliver licensing works to Brent’s additional licensing standards week in, week out.

That housing stock shapes how we approach flat refurbishment in Brent: every property is surveyed against its own structure, services and lease before a price is fixed, never against a brochure photograph.

We work across Brent — NW2, NW9, NW10 and HA0 — and the local demand speaks for itself: HMO Compliance Works, Fire Door Installation, Property Refurbishment. One accountable team handles the programme from first survey to snagging and handover.

Flat Renovation in London Blocks and Conversions

Refurbishing a flat is a different discipline from refurbishing a house. Materials arrive through common parts and lifts that must be booked and protected. Noisy works are restricted to managing agents’ hours, typically 9am to 5pm weekdays. Floor build-ups must meet the lease’s acoustic requirements, and anything touching structure, plumbing stacks or external walls needs the freeholder’s formal consent. We run flat refurbishment projects across Westminster, Kensington & Chelsea and Camden constantly, so this is routine for us rather than a surprise. We prepare licence-to-alter packs, deal with the block’s surveyor directly, and schedule deliveries and skips around the building’s rules. Whether it is a one-bedroom conversion in Islington or a lateral apartment in a Pimlico mansion block, you get one fixed price, one programme and one project manager.

What a Flat Refurbishment Costs in 2026

For a full refurbishment to a good mid-range specification — new kitchen, new bathroom, rewiring, replumbing, flooring and decoration throughout — realistic 2026 budgets are around £55,000 for a one-bedroom flat, £85,000 for a two-bedroom and £115,000 for a three-bedroom. Premium specification with bespoke joinery and stone can double those figures; a lighter cosmetic renovation comes in well under. Per square metre, the same bands apply as any London refurbishment: £800–£1,200 light, £1,200–£1,800 mid-range, £2,000–£2,800+ premium, with inner London commanding a 15–25 per cent premium. Kitchens and bathrooms take 30–40 per cent of the budget, and we recommend a 10–15 per cent contingency — older blocks in particular hide ancient wiring and shared pipework behind their walls. Every quotation is itemised line by line so you can adjust specification and see the budget move before you commit.

Leaseholder Consents and Party Walls

Most London leases require freeholder consent — a licence to alter — before structural changes, new wet rooms, flooring changes or relocated services. Starting without it risks an injunction and problems at resale. We prepare the drawings, specifications and schedules of condition that licence applications require, and we carry the £5 million public liability insurance managing agents ask to see. Where works affect a wall shared with a neighbour, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies. We advise when notices are needed and work alongside your party wall surveyor so the legal steps run in parallel with our lead times rather than delaying the start on site. Once on site, we protect common parts with hard floor protection and daily cleaning — small things, but they are what keep porters and neighbours on your side for six weeks.
