Homes in Mid Glamorgan
Housing in Wales ranges from terraced streets in the valleys and older industrial towns to stone-built homes in rural areas and modern estates around the cities.
What do you get with 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.
- Rewiring, heating and plumbing
- Insulation and energy upgrades
- Plastering, joinery, kitchen and bathrooms

Do you need permission for a house renovation in Mid Glamorgan?
In Wales the planning rules, including what counts as permitted development, are set by the Welsh Government, and Welsh building regulations differ in places from England’s. We check both against your house before drawings are finalised, and handle party wall notices where needed.
Internal work like this does not usually need planning permission in Wales unless the building is listed. Building regulations approval is needed for the structural work.
What should Mid Glamorgan homeowners check first?
- Houses empty for two years or more can qualify for the reduced 5% VAT rate on renovation.
- Energy upgrades are cheapest when walls and floors are already opened up.
