GS Renovation carries out whole-house refurbishments across Harlesden, bringing tired Victorian and Edwardian terraces in NW10 up to modern standards while keeping their character. With over 30 years in Brent, one team handles the rewiring, replumbing, replastering, structural changes and finishes, sequenced so the project runs in the right order.
Full refurbishment of Harlesden period homes
Many Harlesden terraces have been divided, patched and re-serviced piecemeal over the decades, leaving dated layouts, tired wiring and mixed plumbing. A full refurbishment lets us strip back, rewire and replumb the whole house on one consumer unit and one heating system, replaster throughout, and reconfigure the rooms so the property works for how people live now. We plan the sequence so structure comes first and finishes last.
These NW10 houses reward keeping what makes them special. Where cornices, ceiling roses, picture rails, fireplaces and panelled doors survive, we restore and reinstate them rather than lose them, while opening up the plan where it suits the family. We work around the solid-wall construction and the rear closet wing that defines these terraces, marrying the old fabric to new insulation, services and layouts.
One team managing the whole NW10 project
Renovating a whole terrace involves trades that have to follow each other in a strict order, from first-fix electrics and plumbing through plastering to the kitchen, bathrooms, joinery and decoration. Running these as separate jobs is where projects stall. We coordinate them under one roof so the plasterer is not waiting on the electrician and the decorator is not painting over unfinished work.
Internal renovation does not need planning permission, but the electrical work is notifiable under building regulations, so the rewire and any consumer unit change are certified. Where the refurbishment includes removing a load-bearing wall or a chimney breast, we bring in the engineer and building control for that element. You deal with one point of contact for the entire Harlesden project from strip-out to snagging.
