We carry out renovation, refurbishment, extensions, kitchens, bathrooms, rewiring, decorating, and broader upgrade work on St James's in Central London. The scope is shaped by the actual building type, approvals route, and how much of the property needs coordinating as one programme.
£2,050/sq ft Final pricing is usually driven by property size, access, specification level, structural change, and whether the work is being delivered as a standalone package or part of a wider refurbishment.
Protected historic frontages We review those constraints early so the design, buildability, and approvals path all line up with the property before work starts.
St James's is mainly made up of period conversion, modern apartment, georgian townhouse. That matters because the right specification, sequence, and detailing depend on the actual stock on the street rather than a generic trade template.
