Home Refurbishments in Islington
In Islington we are most often asked for lower ground floor refurbishments and flat renovations in converted houses. Barnsbury, Canonbury and the area around Angel are made up of Georgian and early Victorian terraces and squares, many of them listed. Further north in Holloway, Tufnell Park and Archway the houses are later Victorian and frequently divided into flats, while Clerkenwell has converted warehouses and workshops.

Kitchens, bathrooms and whole houses.
A refurbishment goes wrong when five trades each blame the other four. We run kitchens, bathrooms and whole-house renovations as one job: strip-out, first fix, plastering, fitting and decorating, in the right order, by people who work together every week.
- Kitchen renovationsStrip-out, plumbing and electrics, plastering, units, worktops, tiling and flooring. Supply and fit, or fit only.
- Bathroom renovationsBathrooms, en-suites and wet rooms, properly tanked, tiled and ventilated.
- Full-house refurbishmentRewires, replumbs, new heating, replastering, joinery and decoration, programmed room by room.
- Plastering & decoratingSkimmed walls and ceilings, restored cornices, and a paint finish that stands up to daylight.
- Structural alterationsKnocking through, steel beams and chimney breast removals, with calculations and building control sign-off.

Planning and the council
Conservation areas cover a large part of Islington and the council pays close attention to rooflines, rear extensions and windows on its terraces. Gardens are small and access is often through the house, which is worth raising at the design stage.

FAQ
Refurbishments in Islington
Not answered here? Call 07595 386864 and ask us directly.
Do you carry out home refurbishments in Islington?
Yes. We work across Islington, including Angel, Highbury, Holloway, Archway and Barnsbury.
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.
