Full refurbishment of Acton period homes

A typical Acton terrace has been extended and altered over decades, leaving dated wiring, tired plumbing and a layout that no longer suits family life. We strip back, rewire and replumb the whole house, replaster where needed, and reconfigure the ground floor so the kitchen, dining and reception spaces flow. Where a wall needs to come out, the steel and building control sign-off are handled within the same programme.

Living through a full refurbishment is disruptive, so we sequence the work to keep the house watertight and progressing. On these W3 properties we plan the trades in the right order, first fix before plastering, plastering before second fix, so nothing gets torn out twice and the finish is right the first time.

Restoring period features across W3

Acton's Victorian and Edwardian terraces still hold their original character, cornicing, ceiling roses, picture rails, cast-iron fireplaces and panelled doors. Where these features survive, we protect and restore them; where they have been lost, we can reinstate sympathetic replacements so the house keeps the proportions and detail that suit its age.

Modernising a period terrace is a balance between comfort and character. We upgrade insulation, heating and services to current standards while keeping the features that give an Acton home its value and warmth. Because one team runs the structural work, the kitchens, the bathrooms and the decoration, every stage is coordinated rather than left to separate contractors pulling in different directions across your W3 house.

George was brilliant. Lovely bloke, very reasonably priced and a perfectionist to boot. He completed our small kitchen renovation with care and great attention to detail. I've already recommended him to others.

Splendid job on our new kitchen refurb, including new flooring, moving the services, installing RSJ and preparing space for new back doors… George was always friendly, communicative and has an excellent attention to detail, ensuring everything is finished to a high standard.

Giorgio is an excellent and intelligent workman, and with very reasonable prices!… He paid a lot of attention to detail that is not common at all, and the final result was immaculate. Highly recommended!

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about Home Renovation Acton

How much does home renovation cost in Acton?

Pricing home renovation in Acton comes down to the size of the job, the specification you choose and the condition of the property. Rather than guess, we survey and give you a fixed, itemised quote you can rely on. Call 07472 424 226. As a rough guide, home renovation in London ranges from roughly £40,000 to £150,000 or more for a full refurbishment (indicative London ranges, MyBuilder and Checkatrade, 2026). Your figure depends on the size, specification and condition of the property, which is why we survey before quoting.

How long does home renovation take in Acton?

We will give you an honest timescale for home renovation in Acton after surveying your home. Most projects run on a clear weekly programme, and we tell you up front about any lead times on materials or approvals.

Why choose GS Renovation for home renovation in Acton?

With more than three decades of hands-on trade experience behind us, GS Renovation is a trusted choice for home renovation in Acton. You get one accountable team, transparent pricing, fully insured tradespeople and genuine aftercare on every project.

Do I need planning permission for a home renovation in Acton?

Most internal home renovations in Acton do not need planning permission, though building regulations apply to structural, electrical and plumbing work. Extensions or external changes may need permission or fall under permitted development. We handle building control and any applications for you.

Do you work on Victorian and Edwardian terraced homes in Acton?

Yes. A large share of Acton's homes are Victorian and Edwardian terraced properties, and we renovate them regularly. We plan each home renovation around their particular characteristics, such as solid brick walls, rear closet wings, side returns and original period features, so the result suits the building and meets building control.

Can you renovate my whole Acton terrace while keeping the original features?

Yes. On Acton's Victorian and Edwardian terraces we protect cornicing, fireplaces and other original detail while rewiring, replumbing and replastering behind the scenes. Internal renovation does not need planning permission, though new kitchen and bathroom electrics are notifiable under building regulations. If we remove a load-bearing wall as part of the works, that steel is designed by an engineer and signed off by building control.

Do you cover all of Acton?

Absolutely. Our team works right across Acton and the W3 area and neighbouring parts of West London. Get in touch on 07472 424 226 to check coverage for your address.
