Do I need planning permission for a refurbishment?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For most <strong>internal refurbishments<\/strong>, planning permission is not required.

How long does a property refurbishment take?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The timeframe depends on the <strong>size and complexity of the project<\/strong>. A <strong>basic refurbishment<\/strong> can take <strong>4-8 weeks<\/strong>, while <strong>large-scale renovations<\/strong> may take <strong>several months<\/strong>. We provide <strong>detailed timelines<\/strong> before starting any work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. How much does a refurbishment cost?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Costs vary depending on <strong>the scope of work, materials, and labour involved<\/strong>.
