Full refurbishments and whole-house renovations in Wimbledon. Trusted, professional, 30+ years' hands-on experience.
GS Renovation carries out whole-house refurbishments across Wimbledon, taking tired Victorian and Edwardian terraces in SW19 and bringing them fully up to date with one managed team. With over 30 years working on Merton's period homes, we rewire, replumb, replaster and reconfigure while protecting the features that give these houses their character.

Many Wimbledon terraces still carry a Victorian floor plan of small, separate rooms, a rear closet wing and a cramped kitchen tucked at the back. A full renovation is the chance to rethink that layout, opening the ground floor into a sociable living and dining space, relocating a bathroom off a landing, or reworking the closet wing into a usable utility or shower room that actually suits how families live today.
Where structural walls come out we bring in engineer-sized steel and building control sign-off, sequencing that work first so everything else follows cleanly. Upstairs we look at bedroom proportions and loft potential. The aim across these SW19 homes is a layout that feels generous and modern while respecting the original scale and proportions of the terrace.
A sympathetic Wimbledon renovation keeps what makes the house special. We repair and reinstate cornicing, ceiling roses, picture rails, panelled doors, cast fireplaces and the deep skirtings common in these Victorian and Edwardian terraces, replacing only what is genuinely beyond saving. Original sash windows and tiled hallways are restored where possible rather than stripped out, so the home keeps its period soul.
Behind the plaster we bring everything up to standard, with a full rewire, new pipework, modern heating and insulation improvements where the solid-wall construction allows. One team sequences the structural work, first and second fix, plastering, kitchen, bathrooms and decoration in the right order, so trades are not tripping over each other and the project runs to a clear, predictable programme.
Wimbledon homeowners choose GS Renovation for whole-house work because one team owns the whole sequence, from structural openings to the final coat of paint. We understand the quirks of SW19's Victorian and Edwardian terraces, restore period features properly and keep an occupied home clean and organised. Over 30 years in Merton means a programme you can rely on.
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 Wimbledon'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, that balance is central to how we work in Wimbledon. We carefully retain and restore cornicing, fireplaces, sash windows, panelled doors and tiled floors, while a full rewire, replumb and replaster brings the house up to modern standards behind the scenes. Internal renovation does not need planning permission, though new bathroom and kitchen electrics are notifiable under building regulations, which we handle.
