Full refurbishments and whole-house renovations in Hampstead. Trusted, professional, 30+ years' hands-on experience.
GS Renovation refurbishes whole houses across Hampstead, from period cottages in the village to substantial Victorian and Edwardian terraces throughout NW3. With over 30 years in North London, one team rewires, replumbs, replasters and reconfigures the layout, sequencing the structural work, the kitchen, the bathrooms and the decoration so the project runs as a single coordinated build.

A typical Hampstead whole-house project starts with stripping back a tired terrace to sort the fundamentals, a full rewire, new plumbing and heating, and fresh plaster throughout. We reconfigure the dated cellular layout of a Victorian house, opening the ground floor with a steel beam where a wall is load-bearing, and rethinking how the closet wing and side return can give a better kitchen and utility.
Sequencing is what keeps these projects on track. We plan first fix, structural work, second fix and finishes in the right order so trades are not tripping over one another in a house that may still be partly occupied. On the tighter streets near the Heath, we manage deliveries, skips and parking carefully, keeping disruption to neighbours and to Camden's roads to a minimum.
The character of a Hampstead home lives in its details, the cornicing, ceiling roses, panelled doors, sash windows and cast-iron fireplaces. Where these survive we repair and reinstate them, matching profiles and mouldings so a renovated room still reads as Victorian or Edwardian. Where they have been lost under decades of alteration, we can reintroduce sympathetic replacements that suit the age and proportions of the house.
Restoration sits alongside modern comfort. We upgrade insulation, draught-proof the original sashes rather than rip them out, and hide new wiring, pipework and underfloor heating within the fabric so the period look is preserved intact. The result is a home that keeps the warmth and craftsmanship so valued across NW3 while quietly performing like a house built for how families actually want to live today.
Hampstead owners choose GS Renovation because a full refurbishment needs one accountable team, not a string of separate trades. We handle the structure, services, plaster, kitchen, bathrooms and decoration together, protect and restore the period features these houses are known for, and bring 30+ years of managing occupied renovations tidily across the streets of NW3.

FAQ
Scope first, condition second, access third. A home renovation project in a Hampstead home is costed on what the structure is actually doing, which is why an engineer is appointed where the design requires one. Getting a lorry or a skip near the NW3 property in Hampstead changes the labour line more than people expect. The Camden Council fee is shown separately, and the NW3 survey establishes all three before GS Renovation commits to a Hampstead figure. 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.
Usually a little, and the extra time is in the finishing rather than the structure. Solid-wall Victorian terraces with original chimney breasts and suspended timber floors rarely offer square openings or regular floors, so home renovation at an NW3 address takes more care in plaster and joinery. GS Renovation allows for that in the Hampstead programme rather than announcing it later. The structural stage itself is broadly comparable across Camden. Ring 07472 424 226 and we will explain what a bay-fronted Victorian terraced NW3 property usually adds.
We are a contractor, not a middleman. The home renovation work at your NW3 property is carried out by our own team rather than brokered to whoever is cheapest that week, which is why one person can be accountable for the whole Hampstead job. GS Renovation is fully insured, company number 14611254. The engineer, where the design needs one, is appointed by us. Ring 07472 424 226 for Camden references. The certificate is available at the NW3 survey in Camden.
It depends what you touch. Rewiring is notifiable under Part P, structural alterations need building control approval and an engineer's design, and anything external in Hampstead may need planning. We map the consents for your NW3 property at survey stage so nothing surfaces halfway through.
Yes, and we would rather explain why than quietly add a margin. The variables in a bay-fronted Victorian terraced Hampstead home are condition and concealment, both checked at the NW3 survey before GS Renovation commits a figure. The structural work itself is priced much the same. The Camden Council element is shown separately on every Camden quotation. Ask on 07472 424 226 what actually moves a home renovation figure at an NW3 property of that particular age.
Yes. Across NW3 we routinely refurbish Victorian and Edwardian homes while protecting the cornicing, sash windows, fireplaces and panelled doors. We repair and reinstate original details, conceal new wiring, plumbing and heating within the fabric, and reconfigure the layout where it helps. Internal renovation does not need planning permission, though the electrics are notified under building regulations.
There is no part of Hampstead we would exclude. Home renovation is carried out throughout the area and the NW3 area and across neighbouring Camden, on terraces, semis and flats alike. GS Renovation knows how solid-wall Victorian terraces with original chimney breasts and suspended timber floors are built, which is what makes an NW3 quotation accurate. Email info@gsrenovationltd.co.uk and we will book a free survey. Building control goes through Camden Council in the usual way. Small jobs and whole-house programmes are both quoted on the same basis.
