Where a Refurbishment Starts

We walk the house with you and write down what has to be done and what you would like doing. Wiring, plumbing, damp and the roof come first, because there is no point putting new plaster over a problem. Then the work is put in an order that makes sense.

More Information

Working Room by Room or All at Once

An empty house is quicker and cheaper to refurbish because every trade can work at the same time. If you are living there, we do it room by room and keep a kitchen and a bathroom going. Both routes work. It is your choice which suits.

Living in the House During the Work

You will lose rooms in turn rather than all at once. We sheet floors, tape off doorways and keep dust in the room being worked on. Water and power are only off for short, agreed periods. Rubbish goes out at the end of each day instead of piling up.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a house refurbishment cost in Chatham?

It depends on the size of the house and how far back you want to go. A cosmetic refresh with plastering and decorating is a different job to a full rewire, replumb, new kitchen and new bathroom. We price each part separately so you can decide what happens now and what waits.

Can you refurbish a rental property in Medway between tenants?

Yes, and an empty property is the easiest kind to work in. Tell us the date the next tenancy starts and we will plan the work back from it. Landlords usually want plastering, decorating, flooring, a kitchen or bathroom refresh and any safety work done in one visit.

How long does a full house refurbishment take?

A three bedroom house being fully refurbished while empty is often six to twelve weeks. Room by room around a family living there takes longer but causes less upheaval. Waiting on kitchens, windows or special order tiles is usually what moves dates, so we order early.
