Covering Llanelli
Alongside Llanelli, we also cover Pontarddulais, Swansea (10 miles to the south-east) and Ammanford.
Homes in Dyfed
Across Wales you find valley terraces, coastal towns, rural stone houses and newer estates, so access, slopes and local materials all feature in the design.
What does a house renovation involve?
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.
- Planning and building regulations checks under Welsh rules
- Condition survey and scope of works
- Insulation and energy upgrades

Planning and building rules in Llanelli
Welsh projects need planning clearance from the council under Welsh rules, building regulations approval under the Welsh approved documents, and party wall notices where the work affects a neighbour’s wall or foundations.
Internal work like this does not usually need planning permission in Wales unless the building is listed.
What should I think about before starting?
- 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 happens after I enquire?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- 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.
House renovations: common questions
Can we live in the house during a renovation?
For a light refurbishment, often yes. For a full or structural renovation, most people move out for at least part of the work.
Is reduced VAT available?
If the house has been empty for two years or more, renovation work by a VAT-registered contractor can qualify for 5% VAT.
