GS Renovation carries out whole-house renovations across Mitcham, bringing tired 1930s semis and interwar terraces in CR4 up to modern standards under one roof. With over 30 years in the Merton area, we rewire, replumb, replaster and reconfigure dated layouts, sequencing every trade so your refurbishment runs as one coordinated project.
Full refurbishments of Mitcham interwar homes
A 1930s Mitcham semi that has not been touched in decades usually needs the lot: old wiring replaced, plumbing renewed, walls replastered and a layout that suited 1930s living reworked for how families use a house today. We manage all of it in the right order, so first fix electrics and plumbing go in before plastering, and structural changes like opening up the reception rooms happen before the finishes. One team, one programme, one point of contact.
These interwar houses often keep worthwhile original features, picture rails, panelled doors, decorative plaster and cast fireplaces, and where you want them kept we restore rather than strip them out. Where a wall is load-bearing we bring in a structural engineer and the necessary steel, all signed off by Merton Council building control, so the character stays but the fabric, insulation and services are brought right up to date.
Sequencing trades across your Mitcham house
The value in a whole-house renovation is the sequencing, and that is exactly where a piecemeal, trade-by-trade approach falls down. On a Mitcham refurbishment we set out a clear order: strip out, structural work and steelwork first, then first fix services, plastering, second fix, and finally kitchens, bathrooms and decoration. Because one team holds the programme, the plasterer is not waiting on an electrician who has moved to another job.
Living in CR4 while the work happens is easier when the disruption is planned rather than open-ended. We phase the work so key rooms come back into use in a sensible order, keep the site tidy in an occupied home, and coordinate the kitchen and bathroom installs to land at the right point. The outcome is a house that has been renovated as a whole, not a collection of jobs that never quite line up.
