The timeframe depends on the size and complexity of the project. A basic refurbishment can take 4-8 weeks, while large-scale renovations may take several months. We provide detailed timelines before starting any work.

3. How much does a refurbishment cost?

Costs vary depending on the scope of work, materials, and labour involved. A small refurbishment may start from £10,000, while full property renovations can range from £50,000 to £200,000+. We offer free consultations and transparent pricing tailored to your budget.
