Full refurbishments and whole-house renovations in Twickenham. Trusted, professional, 30+ years' hands-on experience.
GS Renovation takes on whole-house renovations throughout Twickenham, refurbishing the bay-fronted Victorian and Edwardian terraces that give TW1 its character. With over 30 years across the Richmond upon Thames borough, we manage everything, structural work, rewiring, replumbing, plastering and finishing, with one team so the whole project moves in the right order.

A full renovation of a Twickenham terrace usually means stripping back to bare brick and joists, then rebuilding the house with modern services inside its period shell. We rewire throughout, replace old plumbing, upgrade the heating and replaster, addressing the damp, tired timbers and dated wiring that these houses often hide. Doing it all at once, while the house is empty, is far less disruptive than tackling each issue in turn.
Where original features survive, the cornicing, ceiling roses, fireplaces and sash windows, we restore and keep them, because they are part of why people buy in TW1 in the first place. Where previous owners have blocked up or awkwardly divided the rooms, we can reconfigure the layout, opening living space or reworking the closet wing, with any structural changes sized by an engineer and signed off by building control.
The value of a managed renovation is the sequencing. On a Twickenham project we plan the order so the structural work and first fix come before plastering, and the kitchen, bathrooms, decoration and flooring follow in the right sequence, with each trade booked so nobody is waiting on another. That coordination is what keeps a big refurbishment on programme and on budget from the first week to the last.
Living through a full renovation is hard, so many TW1 owners move out or decant into part of the house while we work. We keep the site clean, protect what stays and give you a clear programme with regular updates. Being close to Teddington, Kew and Richmond, we are on hand throughout, and one point of contact means you are never chasing separate contractors for answers.
Twickenham owners choose GS Renovation for whole-house work because we hold the entire project together, from the structural engineer to the final coat of paint. There is one contract, one programme and one team accountable for the result. With 30+ years refurbishing period homes across TW1 and the borough, we understand how these terraces are built and how to bring them up to date sympathetically.
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!

Yes. A large share of Twickenham'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.
Yes. Most Twickenham terraces are worth renovating around their original character, so we carefully protect and restore cornicing, fireplaces and sash windows while modernising everything behind them, the wiring, plumbing, heating and insulation. Internal renovation like this does not need planning permission, though the electrics are notifiable under building regulations, and any structural changes are engineered and signed off.
