Full refurbishments and whole-house renovations in Holland Park. Trusted, professional, 30+ years' hands-on experience.
GS Renovation carries out whole-house refurbishments across Holland Park, breathing new life into the substantial period villas and bay-fronted Victorian and Edwardian terraces of W11. With more than 30 years working throughout the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, we sequence structure, services, kitchens, bathrooms and decoration together so one team is accountable from start to finish.

A full renovation of a Holland Park house usually means stripping back to the structure, then rewiring, replumbing and replastering throughout before anything else goes in. The Victorian and Edwardian stock around W11 often hides tired wiring, dated pipework and layouts that no longer suit modern family life, so we reconfigure the plan, open up dark rear rooms and bring the services up to current standards.
We run the trades in the right order so the job does not stall. Structural openings and steel go in first, then first-fix electrics and plumbing, followed by plastering, kitchens, bathrooms, joinery and finally decoration. Managing this sequence under one roof avoids the gaps and finger-pointing that plague projects split across separate contractors.
Holland Park's period villas and terraces were built with cornicing, ceiling roses, panelled doors, sash windows and cast fireplaces, and much of that detail is worth keeping. Where original features survive we repair and restore them, and where they have been lost over the decades we can reinstate mouldings and joinery that suit the age and proportions of the house rather than stripping its character away.
That care sits alongside modern comfort. We upgrade insulation, heating and lighting within the constraints of solid-walled construction, and coordinate any party wall matters where structural work touches a shared wall with the neighbours. The result is a home that reads as a proper Holland Park period property while working the way a family in W11 needs it to today.
Holland Park homeowners choose GS Renovation because a whole-house project needs one team holding the programme together. We manage the structure, the rewire, the replumb, the period restoration and the finish in the correct order, keeping an occupied W11 home clean and on schedule. With 30+ years in the Royal Borough, we know these houses inside out.
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
We price each Holland Park project individually, because the cost of home renovation depends on far more than floor area.

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).

Most internal home renovations in Holland Park 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.
Yes. A large share of Holland Park'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.
Internal renovation work does not need planning permission. Rewiring, replumbing, replastering and reconfiguring rooms are covered by building regulations instead, and the new electrics are notifiable under those regulations. Planning only comes into play if you alter the exterior or if the property is listed or restricted, which is common in the Royal Borough. We advise on your specific home.
Absolutely. Our team works right across Holland Park and the W11 area and neighbouring parts of Central London. Get in touch on 07472 424 226 to check coverage for your address.
