GS Renovation carries out whole-house refurbishments across Knightsbridge, from Georgian and Regency townhouses to mansion-block apartments in SW7. With over 30 years in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, we manage rewiring, replumbing, replastering and structural change under one roof, sequencing every trade so a period home is brought right up to date without losing its character.
Whole-house refurbishment in Knightsbridge
A full renovation of a Knightsbridge townhouse usually means stripping back tired services and starting again, with a complete rewire, new pipework and fresh plaster throughout. We reconfigure dated layouts, opening up cramped ground floors or reworking awkward upper storeys, and where that involves removing load-bearing walls we bring in engineer-sized steel and building control sign-off. The programme is planned floor by floor so the house comes together in a logical order.
These are period homes, so restoration sits alongside modernisation. We repair and reinstate cornicing, ceiling roses, panelled doors, sash windows and fireplaces where they are worth saving, matching profiles to the age of the house. In a listed or conservation-area property we work sympathetically with the original fabric, so the finished home in SW7 feels updated and comfortable yet still reads as the Georgian or Regency house it has always been.
One team managing your Knightsbridge project
The advantage of a single contractor on a large Knightsbridge refurbishment is sequencing. Structural steel, first-fix electrics and plumbing, plastering, joinery, kitchens, bathrooms and decoration all have to happen in the right order, and we hold that programme together so trades are not tripping over one another or redoing work. You have one point of contact rather than juggling separate firms across a complex, multi-room job.
Living in or letting a home in SW7 means the work has to be run cleanly and considerately, especially in a mansion block where managing agents and neighbours are close by. We protect finished areas, keep dust and disruption down, and coordinate any building management or freeholder requirements. From the first strip-out to the final snagging, the whole renovation is delivered by one accountable team with three decades in the borough.
