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

Chiswick: the houses and the planning rules.
Chiswick is Victorian and Edwardian west London at its most complete: the terraces of the Glebe Estate, Bedford Park, the first garden suburb, with its Norman Shaw houses, and the riverside at Strand-on-the-Green. Much of it is in conservation areas administered by Hounslow, with Bedford Park among the most closely protected.
Our Chiswick bathroom, with large-format porcelain, a wall-hung vanity and a walk-in shower, is typical of the work here: careful upgrades inside period houses that keep their character while bringing services up to date.
The Bedford Park, Strand-on-the-Green, Chiswick House and Old Chiswick conservation areas cover much of the district.
London Borough of Hounslow
Hounslow decides applications. Bedford Park and the other conservation areas carry Article 4 directions, so most external changes need a planning application.
Side returns
The Victorian terraces off Chiswick High Road are ideal for side-return extensions; outside conservation areas these often fall under permitted development.
Riverside
Properties near the Thames may need flood risk assessments for basements and ground-floor changes.
Approvals for house refurbishment in Chiswick.
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 Chiswick: your questions.
How long does a house refurbishment take in Chiswick?
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 Chiswick do you cover?
