Alongside Hull, we also cover Beverley (8 miles to the north-west), Hornsea and Grimsby.
Homes in Yorkshire and the Humber
Stone-built terraces are typical of many West Yorkshire towns, while red brick dominates in Hull and much of South Yorkshire, so matching materials is a big part of designing an extension here.
What is a house renovation?
We survey the house to find what really needs doing, from damp and roof condition to wiring age, then programme the work so the messy trades (structure, first-fix, plaster) happen before the finishing trades. A single contract avoids the gaps that appear when separate trades are booked independently.
- Condition survey and scope of works
- Rewiring, heating and plumbing
- Insulation and energy upgrades

Do you need permission for a house renovation in Hull?
English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.
Internal work like this does not usually need planning permission unless the house is listed or your permitted development rights have been removed.
What can affect a house renovation?
- Living in during a full renovation is difficult; most people move out for part of it.
- Energy upgrades are cheapest when walls and floors are already opened up.
What are the steps?
- 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.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
