How much does property refurbishment in North London cost?

There is no single price — it depends on whether it is a house or a flat, the size, the specification and whether extensions, basements or heritage work are involved. The bands below are a realistic guide; your figure is confirmed in writing after survey and design.

Project type
Typical scope

Decoration, flooring, lighting and a kitchen or bathroom refresh — cosmetic improvement without major change.
Full flat refurbishment
Strip-out, full M&E, kitchen, bathrooms and joinery within a mansion flat or conversion.
Full house refurbishment
Whole-house strip-out, structural openings, services, kitchens, bathrooms and joinery across every floor.
Refurbishment with extension / loft
Full works combined with a rear or side-return extension or a loft conversion.
Refurbishment with basement
Whole-house works plus a new or enlarged basement — underpinning, waterproofing and a CMP.
Period / listed restoration
Heritage-led repair and reproduction under listed building consent and conservation control.

The houses and villages of Prime North London

North London's prime stock is a string of hilltop villages, each with its own conservation character.

Prime North London is a collection of distinct villages. Hampstead keeps its Georgian and Queen Anne houses around Church Row, Flask Walk, Well Walk and the lanes off the Heath; Highgate holds The Grove and the streets around Pond Square; and the grand detached houses of The Bishops Avenue and Fitzjohn's Avenue sit between them. St John's Wood, on the Eyre Estate, is defined by its stucco villas along Hamilton Terrace and Avenue Road, while Belsize Park and Primrose Hill are built from stuccoed terraces and red-brick mansion flats.

Almost all of it is conservation-controlled — the Hampstead, Fitzjohn's/Netherhall, Belsize and Highgate Village conservation areas — and Hampstead Garden Suburb is managed under its own Trust scheme. As a Hampstead-based studio, this is the ground we know best: period houses needing extensions, lofts, basements and heritage repair, handled to the standards each village expects.

Questions clients ask before they start

Are you a refurbishment company that covers Prime North London?

Yes — it is our home ground. Hampstead Renovations is a property refurbishment and renovation company based in Hampstead, working across Prime North London including Hampstead, Belsize Park, St John's Wood, Highgate, Primrose Hill, Maida Vale, Regent's Park, Hampstead Garden Suburb, Swiss Cottage, South Hampstead and West Hampstead.

Do you do houses, flats and extensions?

Yes — the full range. House refurbishment, flat and apartment refurbishment, house extensions, kitchen extensions, loft conversions and basement conversions, plus period and listed restoration — all under one contract.

Do you handle planning and conservation-area approvals?

Yes. Much of Prime North London sits within conservation areas, and many homes are listed or under schemes like the Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust. We prepare planning applications, listed building consent and heritage statements, and manage the conservation officer as part of the contract.

Can you do extensions, lofts and basements?

Yes. Rear, side-return and wraparound extensions, kitchen extensions, dormer and mansard loft conversions, and new or enlarged basements are core to our North London work — engineered in-house and delivered with party wall and Building Control handled.

Can you handle design and construction under one contract?

Yes. Architects, engineers, surveyors and builders work under one roof, so design, approvals and build sit in a single contract with one point of responsibility — you are not coordinating separate consultants and a separate contractor.

How much does refurbishment in North London cost?

As a guide, prime North London refurbishment runs from around £500/m² at standard specification to £1,900–£2,400+/m² at super-prime, depending on whether it is a house or flat, the specification and whether extensions or basements are involved. We confirm a fixed price after survey and design.

Where are you based?

Our design studio is in Hampstead — Unit 3, Palace Court, 250 Finchley Road, NW3 6DN — in the heart of the areas we serve. We also hold Central and South West London consultations by appointment at 2 Eaton Gate, SW1.

What insurance and process do you carry?

We carry £10M insurance and work to JCT-based contracts with staged valuations, a documented programme and a two-stage snagging and handover process — the structure prime clients expect.
