FAQs

How much does a complete house renovation cost?

Complete house renovation costs vary enormously depending on property size, specification level, and extent of structural work required. Costs depend on factors including structural modifications, kitchen and bathroom specifications, electrical and plumbing upgrades, and finishing levels. We provide detailed, itemised quotes after surveying your property and understanding your specific requirements. Our transparent pricing covers all trades, materials, and project management across the Bristol area.

How long does a typical renovation project take?

Renovation timelines depend on project scope and complexity. Single room renovations typically take 2-4 weeks, whilst whole house renovations usually require 8-16 weeks depending on size and specification. Projects involving significant structural work, complete rewiring, or period property restoration may take longer. We provide realistic schedules during the quotation stage, factoring in building control inspections, material delivery times, and potential complications. Weather conditions and discovery of unexpected structural issues can affect timelines. We maintain regular communication throughout the project to keep you informed of progress and any necessary schedule adjustments.

Do you handle building regulations for renovation work?

Yes, we handle all building regulations requirements for renovation projects. Many renovations require building control approval, particularly those involving structural modifications, electrical upgrades, or changes to fire safety provisions. We prepare and submit building regulations applications, coordinate inspections, and ensure all work complies with current standards. Our experience with local building control departments across the Bristol area ensures smooth approval processes. We also advise on when planning permission may be required for renovation work and can assist with applications where necessary.

Can I live in my house during a major renovation?

Whether you can remain in your home during renovation depends on the project scope and your family's tolerance for disruption. For extensive whole house renovations involving structural work or complete rewiring, temporary relocation is often necessary for safety and efficiency. However, we can often phase work to allow partial occupation, completing one section before moving to another. We discuss accommodation options during the planning stage and can coordinate work schedules to minimise disruption where possible. Dust barriers, noise management, and maintaining access to essential facilities help make living through renovations more manageable where feasible.
