Home Refurbishments in Temple
In Temple and across City of London we are most often asked for flat refurbishments in listed residential blocks and kitchen and bathroom refits in apartments. Homes here are almost all flats: the listed concrete towers and terraces of the Barbican and the neighbouring Golden Lane estate, plus apartments in converted offices and warehouses around Smithfield and Aldgate. There are very few houses, so work is internal and usually inside a managed block.

Planning and the council
Much of the Square Mile is covered by conservation areas and listed buildings, and the Barbican has its own listed building guidelines, so even internal changes can need consent. Expect to agree working hours, lift use and deliveries with the building's management before starting.

FAQ
Refurbishments in Temple
Not answered here? Call 07595 386864 and ask us directly.
Do you carry out home refurbishments in Temple?
Yes. Temple is in City of London, where we work every week alongside Barbican, Smithfield, Aldgate and Blackfriars.
Do you supply the kitchen or bathroom, or just fit it?
Either. We can fit a kitchen or suite you have already bought, or supply through our trade accounts. The quote separates labour from materials so you can see what each choice costs.
Will I get a fixed price?
Yes. After a site visit you get a written, itemised quote. If you change the scope or we find something hidden, such as rotten joists under a bath, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
How long does a bathroom or kitchen take?
A bathroom is typically two to three weeks. A kitchen is three to five weeks depending on worktop lead times and whether walls are moving.
