Whole-house refurbishment in Hanwell

A full Hanwell refurbishment usually means stripping a tired terrace back and rebuilding it properly. We rewire to current standards, replace old pipework and heating, replaster walls that have crumbled behind failing plaster, and reconfigure the dated layouts these houses were left with, opening cramped rooms and finding space for a downstairs cloakroom or a bigger kitchen at the back.

The advantage of running it all together is sequencing. The structural work, the first fix electrics and plumbing, the plastering, the kitchen, the bathrooms and the decoration each happen in the right order, so nothing gets torn out twice. We keep one point of contact and one programme across the whole house, which matters when you are living around the work or moving out for a stretch.

Restoring period features in W7

Hanwell's Victorian and Edwardian terraces still carry original detail worth keeping. Cornices, ceiling roses, picture rails, panelled doors and cast fireplaces give these houses their character, and where they survive we repair and reinstate rather than rip out. New plaster is matched to the old profiles, and modern insulation and services are threaded in without spoiling the period feel.

Balancing old and new is the craft. We keep the front rooms and the staircase true to the house while modernising the rear and the services for how families live now. In these W7 terraces that often means an open, light rear kitchen-diner sitting behind carefully restored reception rooms, a comfortable, efficient home that still reads as the Edwardian house it always was.

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 Hanwell

How much does home renovation cost in Hanwell?

The cost of home renovation in Hanwell depends on the size of the property, the specification and the scope of work. GS Renovation provides free, detailed and itemised quotations for every Hanwell project. Call 07472 424 226 or email info@gsrenovationltd.co.uk for a no-obligation estimate. 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 Hanwell?

We will give you an honest timescale for home renovation in Hanwell 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 Hanwell?

Because we manage every trade in-house, your Hanwell project stays consistent and accountable from first fix to finish. Add transparent pricing, full insurance and real aftercare, and it is easy to see why Hanwell clients recommend us.

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

Most internal home renovations in Hanwell 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 Hanwell?

Yes. A large share of Hanwell'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.

Do I need planning permission to renovate the inside of my Hanwell house?

Internal renovation such as rewiring, replumbing, replastering and reconfiguring rooms does not need planning permission. The electrical work and any structural changes are notifiable under building regulations, so building control is involved. Planning only comes into play if you alter the exterior or the house sits in a conservation area. We handle the building control side of your Hanwell project throughout.

Do you cover all of Hanwell?

We cover the whole of Hanwell and the W7 area and the surrounding West London. If you are nearby and not sure, just call 07472 424 226 and we will tell you straight away.
