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.
- Condition survey and scope of works
- Strip-out and structural repairs
- Plastering, joinery, kitchen and bathrooms

Planning and building rules in Royton
In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.
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 Royton homeowners check first?
- Older houses can hide timber decay and damp, so we allow a contingency.
- Energy upgrades are cheapest when walls and floors are already opened up.
What happens after I enquire?
