Full refurbishments and whole-house renovations in Vauxhall. Trusted, professional, 30+ years' hands-on experience.
GS Renovation takes on whole-house refurbishments throughout Vauxhall, breathing new life into the Georgian and Regency townhouses and updating the riverside flats of SE11. With over 30 years across South London, we manage the rewiring, replumbing, replastering and reconfiguration with one team, sequencing structural work, kitchens, bathrooms and decoration so the whole project runs to a single plan.

A full renovation of a Vauxhall townhouse usually means stripping decades of tired alterations back and starting with the essentials, new wiring, new pipework and fresh plaster, before a single finish is chosen. These solid-brick Georgian and Regency homes reward careful work, so we restore the cornicing, ceiling roses, panelled doors and sash windows where they survive, and reinstate them sympathetically where earlier owners took them out.
Layouts that suited Georgian living rarely suit modern life, so we reconfigure sensibly, often opening the lower ground or rear rooms with a steel beam to create a kitchen-diner while keeping the front rooms formal. Because many of these houses are listed or sit within a Lambeth conservation area, we work within those constraints, and we sequence the trades so plaster, joinery, electrics and decoration all land in the right order.
Running a whole-house project in SE11 through a single team avoids the gaps that appear when trades are booked piecemeal. We hold the programme, so the electrician first-fixes before the plasterer, the bathrooms are tanked before they are tiled, and the joinery is measured against finished walls. That coordination matters most in occupied homes, where we keep dust down, protect original floors and staircases, and keep at least part of the house liveable where we can.
For Vauxhall's leasehold riverside flats, a renovation is more about services and finishes than structure, since load-bearing changes are limited and need the freeholder's licence to alter. We coordinate with the managing agent, observe the building's rules on working hours and access, and upgrade the sound insulation between flats where the works allow. The outcome, whether house or flat, is a home that works properly and looks the part throughout.
Vauxhall owners choose GS Renovation for whole-house work because one experienced team carries the entire project, structure, services, joinery and finishes, with a single point of contact. We understand SE11's period fabric and conservation limits, respect original features, and keep occupied homes clean and safe. With 30+ years behind us, the sequencing is right and the finish is one you will be proud of.
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!
FAQ
Every Vauxhall project is priced on its own merits, as the cost of home renovation varies with the size, specification and condition of the home. We give a clear, itemised quote up front with no obligation. Call 07472 424 226 for an estimate tailored to your property. As a rough guide, home renovation in London ranges from roughly £40,000 to £150,000 or more for a full refurbishment (indicative London ranges, MyBuilder and Checkatrade, 2026). Your figure depends on the size, specification and condition of the property, which is why we survey before quoting.

Yes. A large share of Vauxhall'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.
Absolutely. Vauxhall's Georgian and Regency townhouses are worth renovating with their character intact, so we carefully protect and restore cornicing, ceiling roses, sash windows and panelled doors alongside the new wiring, plumbing and plaster. Where the house is listed or in a Lambeth conservation area we work within those rules, blending modern comfort with the original detail that makes SE11 homes special.
