Full refurbishments and whole-house renovations in Hayes. Trusted, professional, 30+ years' hands-on experience.
GS Renovation takes on whole-house refurbishments across Hayes, bringing tired 1930s semis and interwar family homes in UB3 up to modern standards. With over 30 years of experience, we manage everything with one team, from rewiring and replumbing to replastering, reconfiguring dated layouts and restoring the period details that give these houses their character.

Many Hayes homes have not been touched properly since they were built, so the wiring, pipework and plaster are often well past their best. We strip back to what is sound, install a new consumer unit and full rewire, replace old pipework, and replaster throughout so you start with a solid, safe shell. Sequencing matters on a job this size, so we plan the structural work first, then first fix, then finishes, keeping the whole project moving in the right order.
The interwar semis here were designed for a different way of living, with small separate rooms and narrow hallways. We reconfigure those dated layouts, often opening the ground floor with a steel beam signed off by building control, and rework the first floor to add an en-suite or a better bathroom. Where original features survive, such as picture rails, cornicing or a tiled hearth, we protect and restore them so the character of the house is not lost.
A good renovation respects what makes a 1930s house worth keeping. Across UB3 we retain and repair the details that date from the interwar years, from panelled doors and bay windows to the original staircase, while quietly upgrading everything behind them. New insulation, heating and glazing make the house warm and efficient, but the proportions and features that suit the era stay intact, so the home still reads as the family house it was built to be.
Running kitchens, bathrooms, decoration and any structural work as a single project saves time and avoids the gaps that appear when trades are booked separately. One team means one point of contact, one programme and one standard of finish. We work room by room where you are still living in the house, protect floors and belongings, and keep you updated so a large Hayes renovation never feels out of control.
Homeowners in Hayes choose GS Renovation because a whole-house project needs one team that can sequence structure, services and finishes without dropping the ball. Our 30+ years across UB3 cover everything from rewiring and replastering to steel beams and restored period features, all under a single contract, one programme and honest pricing, with building control handled where the work requires it.

FAQ
It depends on the house, which is exactly why the survey comes first. In bay-windowed 1930s semis with side access and separate garages the reinstatement often outweighs the structural element of home renovation, whereas a newer UB3 property is the other way round. GS Renovation prices the two separately so a Hayes client can see the balance. Phasing the work is then possible if the budget needs it. Ring 07472 424 226 and GS Renovation will talk through phasing options for a UB3 home. 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.
Yes, more often than not. GS Renovation runs home renovation at a UB3 property with dust sheeting, sealed openings and a clear-up at the end of each day, which is what makes living alongside it workable in a Hayes home. Where the 1930s and interwar layout makes that impractical we say so before you commit. The decision stays yours throughout the Hillingdon project. Ask on 07472 424 226 what a 1930s and interwar UB3 property typically means in practice.
Yes, and we will give you addresses rather than testimonials. Seeing finished home renovation work near UB3 or elsewhere in Hayes tells you far more than anything written down. GS Renovation also holds 31 public MyBuilder reviews and a 4.9 rating. Ring 07472 424 226 and we will arrange for you to speak to a previous Hillingdon client directly. Nothing is arranged in advance with those Hillingdon clients, and nothing at UB3 is rehearsed.
Yes. Listed building consent is required for works affecting character, inside as well as out, and it is separate from planning permission. Unauthorised work is a criminal offence. Where your Hayes property is listed we lead the application with Hillingdon Council before anything begins.
Fewer than you would think, because we look for them first. The UB3 survey on a home renovation job checks the places 1930s and interwar Hayes houses commonly hide trouble, so the quotation reflects reality rather than hope. Where something genuinely unforeseen appears, GS Renovation stops and re-prices openly. Weekly updates mean you hear it early, not at handover. Ask on 07472 424 226 where home renovation usually finds trouble in UB3 houses of that particular age.
Yes, we do this regularly in Hayes. We plan the works in stages so you keep a usable kitchen and bathroom for as long as possible, protect floors and belongings, and seal off dusty areas. For bigger structural phases some families move out briefly, but many stay throughout. We agree a realistic programme up front so you always know what is happening next.
The simplest answer is to give us the postcode. GS Renovation covers Hayes and the surrounding Hillingdon for home renovation, and we will say straight away whether your address is in or out. There is no charge for asking or for the survey at UB3. Call 07472 424 226 and you will know today. We will suggest someone else if we are not right. The UB3 survey is free and the Hillingdon quotation follows in writing.
