GS Renovation refurbishes whole houses across Merton, from tired Victorian villas in Wimbledon to Edwardian terraces around Mitcham Common and solid suburban homes near Morden. With more than 30 years of experience in SW19, SW20, CR4 and SM4, we take a dated property back to brick where needed and rebuild it as one coordinated project.
Whole-house refurbishment in Merton homes
A full Merton renovation usually means rewiring, replumbing and replastering throughout, because the services in a Victorian or Edwardian terrace are often decades past their best. We sequence the trades so first fix electrics and pipework go in before the walls are closed up, then plaster, second fix and decoration follow in the right order. One team holds the whole programme together.
Reconfiguring the dated layout is where these houses come alive. We open the cramped rear rooms into the closet wing, rework the awkward bathroom that was squeezed in over the years, and rethink how a narrow SW19 terrace flows from front door to garden, all while keeping the building sound and warm.
Restoring period features across the borough
Merton's bay-fronted terraces still hold cornicing, ceiling roses, picture rails, panelled doors and original fireplaces worth saving. Where these survive we protect and restore them, and where previous owners stripped them out we can reinstate mouldings that match the age of the house, so a refurbished Wimbledon or Morden home keeps its Victorian or Edwardian character.
Structural changes are woven into the same schedule. If the renovation includes a steel beam knock-through or a new opening, the engineer's design and building control sign-off are handled alongside the kitchen, bathrooms and decoration. That coordination avoids the stop-start delays that come from juggling separate contractors on an occupied Merton house.
