Covering Nottingham
We work in Nottingham (NG1, NG3, NG7) and the places around it, including West Bridgford, Arnold and Hucknall.
Homes in the East Midlands
Across the East Midlands you find everything from city terraces to modern estates and stone villages, so the right extension depends a lot on the street and the materials around it.
What is included in a house renovation in Nottingham?
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
- Rewiring, heating and plumbing
- Decoration and flooring if required
How much should I budget for a house renovation?
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 |
What approvals does a house renovation need in England?
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 Nottingham 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.
What are the steps?
- 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.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
