Strongest Service Families in Kensington
These are the service families that usually perform best across Kensington because they map well to the local housing stock, planning context, and client demand.
Renovation and Refurbishment
High-quality renovation pages need to explain not just what gets upgraded, but how layout, services, finishes, and compliance are sequenced for this type of home.
Cost drivers
- •How much of the property is stripped back and how many core services are replaced.
- •Joinery, flooring, bathroom, and kitchen specification across multiple rooms.
Decision factors
- •Whether to phase the works or treat the project as a single vacant-property programme.
- •How much original fabric should be retained versus replaced for performance and finish consistency.
Kitchen Renovations
Kitchen pages should explain layout, storage, extraction, electrics, and appliance planning rather than treating the work as a simple cabinet swap.
Cost drivers
- •Cabinet quality, worktop material, appliances, and bespoke joinery.
- •Gas, water, drainage, extraction, and electrical service moves.
Decision factors
- •Whether the layout should stay broadly put or move key services for a better workflow.
- •How much of the budget belongs in cabinetry and appliances versus structural or service upgrades.
Bathroom Renovations
Bathroom pages should cover waterproofing, drainage, ventilation, and layout efficiency so the room works well long after the tiles go on.
Cost drivers
- •Plumbing relocation, drainage changes, and tanking detail.
- •Tile format, sanitaryware, brassware, cabinetry, and screens.
Decision factors
- •Whether the existing drainage layout can be retained or should be improved.
- •How much of the value comes from better waterproofing and ventilation versus premium finishes.
