House Refurbishment in Edgware.
A full refurbishment is the project that resets a house. In Edgware 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.

Edgware: the houses and the planning rules.
Edgware is the northern end of the Northern line and one of the most generously planned of the inter-war suburbs: wide avenues of 1930s detached and semi-detached houses, the larger homes around Canons Park and up towards Edgwarebury, and a town centre that is being rebuilt with new apartments.
The plots are wide enough for side extensions as well as rear ones, which opens up the whole ground floor, and the hipped roofs convert well. We do full refurbishments, double-storey extensions and lofts here, and the detached houses around Canons Park attract projects at the top of the suburban market.
The Edgware Conservation Area covers a small part of the old High Street and Canons Park; most streets are unrestricted.
Barnet and Harrow
Edgware straddles the two boroughs; Barnet covers most of it. Both allow most single-storey extensions and lofts under permitted development outside the conservation area.
Side extensions
Single-storey side extensions up to half the width of the house are usually permitted development; two-storey side extensions need a householder application.
Canons Park
Around Canons Park, the conservation area and protected trees affect what can be built and how close to the boundary.
Approvals for house refurbishment in Edgware.
Internal refurbishment does not normally need planning permission, but it does need building regulations approval for structural work, electrics, plumbing and insulation, and listed houses need listed building consent for most internal changes.

House Refurbishment in Edgware: your questions.
How long does a house refurbishment take in Edgware?
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.
Which parts of Edgware do you cover?
All of Edgware and HA8, including Edgwarebury Lane, Broadfields Avenue, Canons Drive, Green Lane, Hale Lane, Penshurst Gardens, and the neighbouring districts. We are based in London and our teams work across central, north, north-west, west and south-west London.
