Homes in County Armagh
Across Northern Ireland you find city terraces, suburban semis and rural bungalows and farmhouses, so the right approach depends on the plot and the planning history.
What goes into a house renovation?
A house renovation brings an older or neglected home up to modern standards: rewiring, new heating, replastering, new kitchen and bathrooms, windows, insulation and often a new layout. It can be done room by room or as one programme while the house is empty.
- Strip-out and structural repairs
- Plastering, joinery, kitchen and bathrooms
- Decoration and flooring if required
What is the guide price for a house renovation in County Armagh?
What house renovations typically cost. These are guide ranges; the written quote for your house replaces them.
| House renovations | Guide price incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| Light refurbishment | £600 to £1,000 per m² |

What approvals does a house renovation need in Northern Ireland?
In Northern Ireland the council handles both planning and building control. Permitted development rules are set by the Planning (General Permitted Development) Order (Northern Ireland) 2015, and there is no party wall act, so we agree access and protection with neighbours in writing.
Internal alterations rarely need planning permission in Northern Ireland, but structural work needs building control approval.
What can affect a house renovation?
- Older houses can hide timber decay and damp, so we allow a contingency.
- Living in during a full renovation is difficult; most people move out for part of it.
From first call to completion
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
