House Refurbishment for Wandsworth Property

The terraces “between the commons” in Battersea and Balham, Putney family houses and new riverside developments — strong demand for whole-house refurbishment and loft-level bathrooms.

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

We work across Wandsworth — SW11, SW12, SW15, SW17 and SW18 — and the local demand speaks for itself: House Refurbishment, Bathroom Refurbishment, Painting & Decorating. One accountable team handles the programme from first survey to snagging and handover.

Full House Renovation, Floor by Floor

A full house renovation in London usually means working through every layer of the building: stripping back to brick where needed, renewing wiring and pipework, levelling floors, replastering, then fitting kitchens, bathrooms, joinery and decoration. Done in the wrong order, each trade undoes the last one’s work. Done in the right order, the programme is weeks shorter. We sequence house refurbishments top-down and back-to-front: structural works and roof repairs first, then first-fix electrics and plumbing, then plastering, then second fix and finishes. Our project managers run this choreography daily on Victorian terraces in Islington and Hackney, Georgian townhouses in Westminster and Edwardian semis in Richmond. If you are living in the house during works, we phase room by room and keep one working bathroom and kitchen area available throughout wherever the layout allows.

Rewiring, Replumbing and Heating

Most London houses over forty years old need their services renewed during refurbishment, and it is far cheaper to do it while walls are open than after decoration. We carry out full rewires to BS 7671 with new consumer units, certified by our NICEIC-registered electricians, and replace ageing lead or corroded copper pipework with new hot and cold runs. Heating upgrades are planned at the same stage: new boilers, megaflo cylinders, underfloor heating in kitchens and bathrooms, and smart controls. Because our plumbers and electricians work for us rather than as subcontractors found mid-project, first fix happens in days rather than weeks. Every installation is pressure-tested and certificated, and the paperwork is handed over in your completion pack — essential for resale, remortgage and insurance.

Budgeting a House Refurbishment Honestly

House refurbishment budgets in London are driven by floor area and specification. At 2026 prices, light works run £800–£1,200 per square metre, a comprehensive mid-range refurbishment £1,200–£1,800, and premium specification £2,000–£2,800 or more. A typical 120-square-metre terrace therefore lands anywhere between £100,000 and £300,000 depending on ambition. Kitchens and bathrooms will absorb 30–40 per cent of that figure, so decisions there move the budget more than anywhere else. We help clients spend where it shows — sanitaryware, worktops, flooring — and save where it does not, such as carcassing and first-fix materials. Allow a 10–15 per cent contingency. Period houses hide their problems well, and an honest contingency agreed up front is what keeps a project friendly when the floorboards come up.
