Full and part refurbishments across East London: strip out, alterations, making good, then the finishing trades that turn a shell back into a room. One team measures up, prices the whole job and stays on it until the last coat is on, so nothing sits half done while you chase somebody else.
You get one price for the building work, the plastering, the second fix and the decoration rather than five quotes that never quite add up to a finished room.
Dust and demolition first, wet trades next, finishing last. Getting that order right is most of what stops a refurbishment dragging on for months.
Chases filled, doorways squared, skirting and architrave matched back in. The join between old work and new is the part people notice, so it gets the time.
Waste goes at the end of each day rather than building up in the hallway, and the place gets swept down before we leave it.
Almost all of it. Building work, plastering, tiling, flooring, carpentry, plumbing and decorating are covered in house, which is why a room here takes weeks rather than months. The exceptions are gas work and notifiable electrical work, which go to a registered engineer as they legally must, and we organise that rather than leaving it with you.
Usually yes. We work room by room where we can, sheet the route in and out, and tell you honestly which days will be noisy or dusty and which days the water or the kitchen will be off. Where the whole place is coming apart at once it is easier on everyone if you are out, and we will say so rather than pretending it will be fine.
A single room taken back and rebuilt is usually one to two weeks including drying time for the plaster. A whole flat is four to eight weeks depending on how much is moving. You get a realistic sequence up front, and if something slips you get told why rather than finding out when nobody turns up.
Yes, a good part of the work is landlord and property management work: turning a tired flat around between tenants, fixing what an inspection has flagged, or bringing a place back up to standard before it goes on the market. We can work to a list, price it item by item and photograph what has been done.
Yes, and it comes after somebody has actually seen the job, not over the phone from a description. It sets out what is included, what is not and what the allowances are. Nothing is chargeable until you have read it and said yes, and there is nothing to pay until you are happy with the work.
