Full Refurbishments in Kensal Green & Kensal Rise
Strip-out to final decoration — rewires, replumbs, new heating, structural alterations, kitchens, bathrooms and finishes, run as one programme by one team.
Refurbishments go wrong when trades are booked piecemeal and nobody owns the sequence. We run the whole programme: strip-out, structural work, first fix, plaster, second fix, decoration, in the right order with the right gaps for drying. You get one contact and one schedule rather than chasing six subcontractors.
Full Refurbishments in Kensal Green & Kensal Rise: what to know locally
Victorian terraces, many in multiple occupation or converted to flats, with larger housing towards Kensal Rise and Queen's Park fringes.
A mix of owner-occupier renovation and landlord work. The Victorian terraces take side return and rear extensions well, and loft conversions are common across the whole area given the roof profiles.
Planning authority: Brent Council. Brent has conservation areas covering parts of Kensal Rise and Queen's Park, and operates additional HMO licensing. Terraced loft conversions need party wall notices to both neighbours.

Do you cover Kensal Green & Kensal Rise?

Which council handles planning for Kensal Green & Kensal Rise?
Brent Council. Brent has conservation areas covering parts of Kensal Rise and Queen's Park, and operates additional HMO licensing. Terraced loft conversions need party wall notices to both neighbours.
Do I need to move out during a full refurbishment?
For a whole-house job, usually yes — there are periods with no water, no heating and no working kitchen. It also speeds the programme up considerably. For phased work room by room, staying is often workable.
How long does a whole-house refurbishment take?
A three-bedroom house is typically 12 to 20 weeks depending on structural work and how quickly decisions on finishes come back. Delays are far more often about choosing tiles than about the building work.
Can you work from an architect's drawings?
Yes, and we would rather you had them for anything structural. If you do not have drawings we can bring in an architect and a structural engineer as part of the package.
