Covering Maidenhead
Our coverage around Maidenhead (SL6) also includes Slough (5 miles to the east) and Windsor.
Homes in the South East
Housing across the South East mixes inter-war semis, post-war estates and older cottages in villages and market towns, so rear and side extensions, hip-to-gable lofts and garage conversions all come up regularly.
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.
- Rewiring, heating and plumbing
- Insulation and energy upgrades
- Plastering, joinery, kitchen and bathrooms
How much does a house renovation cost in Maidenhead?
Indicative costs for house renovations. London and the South East usually sit towards the top of each range.
| House renovations | Guide price incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| Light refurbishment | £600 to £1,000 per m² |
| Full renovation | £1,000 to £1,800 per m² |
| Structural renovation and remodel | £1,800 to £2,800 per m² |
Do you need permission for a house renovation in Maidenhead?
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. It does need building regulations approval because it affects the structure.
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.
How does the project run?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.

Yes. After a short call we arrange a site visit to measure up and agree what the design needs to do, then send a written price.
