Full refurbishments and whole-house renovations in Notting Hill. Trusted, professional, 30+ years' hands-on experience.
GS Renovation carries out whole-house refurbishments throughout Notting Hill, from stucco-fronted terraces near Portobello Road to converted townhouses towards Holland Park. With over 30 years across W11 and the wider Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, one team rewires, replumbs, replasters and reconfigures your Georgian or Regency home while protecting the features that make it worth keeping.

A Georgian or Regency townhouse in W11 usually needs its services brought up to date behind the period face. We rewire the whole house, replace ageing pipework, and replaster where old lath and plaster has failed, sequencing the messy first-fix work before decoration so nothing is disturbed twice. On four and five-storey homes we plan the works floor by floor to keep an occupied house liveable where possible.
Layouts that suited a different era rarely suit modern life, so we reconfigure dated arrangements, combining rooms, relocating bathrooms, and opening kitchens where the structure allows. Any load-bearing change means a steel beam designed by an engineer and passed by building control. Managing structure, services and finishes as one project stops the delays that come from stitching together separate trades on a complex period property.
Notting Hill's appeal is in its detail, and we protect and restore the cornicing, ceiling roses, panelled doors, shutters and fireplaces that give these houses their character. Where original joinery or plaster mouldings survive, we repair rather than replace, and match new work to the existing profiles so a refurbished room still reads as a period interior rather than a modern box.
Many W11 homes are listed or in a conservation area, so external and character-affecting work can need consent from the council, and we advise on that before starting. Inside, we balance restoration with the insulation, heating and lighting a comfortable home needs today. The aim is a house that feels contemporary to live in while keeping the fabric and proportions the Royal Borough is known for.
A full renovation of a Notting Hill townhouse touches structure, services, plaster and joinery at once, and 30+ years in W11 lets GS Renovation sequence it properly. One accountable team means the rewire, replumb, structural work and finishes join up, period features are protected, and conservation constraints are respected. You deal with us, not a chain of separate trades.
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!

Most internal home renovations in Notting Hill 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 Notting Hill's homes are period, Georgian and listed properties, and we renovate them regularly. We plan each home renovation around their particular characteristics, such as conservation and listed-building rules, solid walls and original period features, so the result suits the building and meets building control.
Internal renovation such as rewiring, replumbing and replastering does not need planning permission, though electrics are notifiable under building regulations and structural changes need building control. If your W11 home is listed, internal alterations can require listed building consent even inside, so we check the property's status with the Royal Borough before touching original fabric.
Yes. We work throughout Notting Hill and the W11 area, as well as the surrounding parts of Central London. Contact us on 07472 424 226 to confirm we cover your street.
