Renovations
Whole-house refurbishments, structural changes and opening up. Across Worksop and the villages around it.
Renovations are where a good builder earns their keep. We take tired or neglected houses and put them right: knocking through walls, rewiring, replumbing, new windows and doors, damp and timber treatment, and everything needed to make the house sound before it's made nice.
What's included
- Condition survey with a plain-English list of what's urgent and what can wait
- Structural alterations with engineer's calculations
- Rewiring, replumbing and heating upgrades
- Damp treatment, re-plastering and repairs to timber
- Windows, doors, render and roof repairs
- Decoration-ready handover
Typical timescales
From 4 weeks for a single-floor refurbishment to 4 to 6 months for a whole-house renovation. We'll give you a stage-by-stage programme with the quote.

Questions we get asked
Can you help me decide what to do first?
Yes. The condition survey splits the work into what needs doing now (roof, damp, electrics), what's sensible to do while walls are open, and what can wait. Lots of people phase a renovation over two or three years.
Can we live in the house during a renovation?
For smaller jobs, yes. For a full rewire, replumb and re-plaster most people move out for a few weeks. It's quicker, safer and usually cheaper overall.
Do you take on listed buildings?
We work on older and conservation-area properties regularly. For listed buildings we'll work with your conservation officer and use traditional materials like lime mortar where the building needs it.
