Full House Renovation FAQs

A full house renovation typically includes: structural repairs, complete rewiring, new plumbing, central heating upgrade, new kitchen and bathrooms, decoration throughout, new flooring, and any necessary repairs to windows, doors, and roofing. The scope is tailored to your property's needs.

It depends on the work scope. Minor renovations may allow you to stay, but major works involving structural changes, rewiring, or extensive plumbing usually require you to move out temporarily. We can advise based on your specific project and help phase work if needed.

Preparation includes: clearing rooms of furniture and valuables, arranging temporary accommodation if needed, informing neighbors, securing parking permits for tradespeople, providing clear access, and gathering inspiration images and material samples for decision-making.
