House Refurbishment in Earl's Court.
A full refurbishment is the project that resets a house. In Earl's Court it usually means stripping back to the structure, rewiring and replumbing, replanning the ground floor around a new kitchen, fitting new bathrooms and then bringing back the detail that gives the house its character: cornices, joinery, fireplaces and sash windows.
We run the whole job. Our architects draw the new layout, our engineers design any structural openings, and our own site team builds it, so there is one programme, one quotation and one person to call. Kitchens and bathrooms are designed and supplied by us rather than by a subcontractor.
Every refurbishment starts with a site visit and a measured survey. From that we produce drawings, an itemised specification and a programme, so you know exactly what is being done before anyone lifts a tool.

Earl's Court: the houses and the planning rules.
Earl's Court is late-Victorian London: tall terraces around garden squares such as Nevern Square and Philbeach Gardens, most of them long since converted into flats, with mansion blocks on the main roads. Ceilings are high, rooms are deep and the building fabric rewards a thorough refurbishment.
Our award-winning living space is here, in Nevern Square: a ground floor reworked as one long room with the kitchen hidden behind a wall of bespoke joinery, featured in House & Garden. We also supplied a seamless Corian worktop and basin for a bathroom in the same square.
The Nevern Square, Philbeach and Earl's Court Village conservation areas cover much of it.
Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea
Planning applications go to RBKC. The garden squares are conservation areas and many terraces are listed or locally listed.
Flats
Most properties are leasehold flats, so a licence to alter from the freeholder is normally required alongside building regulations approval.
Party walls
Terraced construction means structural openings and new services usually engage the Party Wall Act; we serve the notices early.

House Refurbishment in Earl's Court: your questions.
How long does a house refurbishment take in Earl's Court?
A whole house with structural changes, a new kitchen and two or three bathrooms usually takes four to six months on site. We give a written programme with the quotation and report progress weekly.
Can I stay in the house during the work?
For a partial refurbishment, usually yes: we keep a bathroom and a basic kitchen working and seal off the rooms we are in. For a full strip-out it is faster, cleaner and cheaper to move out for the duration.
