Covering Warwickshire
We cover Warwickshire, including Nuneaton, Rugby, Leamington Spa and Warwick, and the towns around them.
Homes in the West Midlands
The West Midlands has a large stock of 1930s semis and Victorian terraces in red brick, so matching brick and roof tiles is often the key to an extension that looks original.
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
How much does a house renovation cost in Warwickshire?

| Full renovation | £1,000 to £1,800 per m² |

Planning and building rules in Warwickshire
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.
What can change the price or programme?
- 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?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
House renovations: common questions
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.
How long does a renovation take?
About 8 to 30 weeks on site depending on scope.
Who deals with the council for a project in Warwickshire?
We do. We prepare the drawings, submit planning or permitted development paperwork if needed, and arrange building control inspections.
