Contract, One Team
Design & Build

One company accountable for the whole job

Most refurbishments fail at the seams — between the architect, the engineer, the surveyor and the builder. We remove those seams. A house or flat refurbishment, extension, loft or basement runs through one route from first survey to final handover, priced and managed by the people who actually build it. Clients find us as a refurbishment company, a property refurbishment company, a renovation company or design-and-build contractors — it is all the same team.

Why One Company

Why a single refurbishment company beats piecing it together

Separate trades & consultants

The usual route
  • You coordinate the architect, engineer, surveyor and builder yourself
  • Each blames the other when something goes wrong on site
  • Quotes price different scopes — impossible to compare like for like
  • Design clashes with structure and budget only surface mid-build
  • No single point of accountability for cost, programme or quality

Hampstead Renovations

One contract, one team
  • Design, structure, approvals and build under one accountable team
  • One contract and one fixed price once the scope is defined
  • Approvals sequenced before the build, not discovered during it
  • Buildability and budget reviewed at design stage, not on site
  • One point of contact from first survey to final handover
How We Work

From first survey to final handover

A real fixed price comes from a defined scope, not a guess. This is the route we follow before we commit to a number — and how we protect it once we start.

01

Site visit

We walk the property with you and flag the real constraints — access, structure, services and condition.

02

Survey & drawings

Measured drawings so design and pricing work off accurate dimensions, not assumptions.

03

Structural review

Our engineers assess what can be opened up, removed or extended — and what it takes to do it safely.

04

Approvals check

Planning, conservation, listed-building, Licence to Alter and party wall confirmed before the build.

05

Specification

A clear written specification — layouts, materials, finishes and services — so everyone prices the same project.

06

Fixed price

Only once scope is defined do we give a fixed price — with any genuine unknowns shown as clearly-labelled provisional sums.

07

Build

Our own team delivers to programme, with one point of contact and regular site updates throughout.

08

Handover

Snagging closed out, documents handed over, and aftercare in place. Every variation priced and approved in writing — no end-of-job surprises.

Approvals & Surveying

The consents we coordinate for you

Most refurbishments need approvals before work starts. As a design-and-build company we sequence them for you, with RICS sister-company surveying support where leasehold consent or neighbour matters arise.

FAQs

Refurbishment company questions

What does a design-and-build refurbishment company do?
We design, gain approvals for and build your project as one team under one contract. Instead of you appointing an architect, an engineer, a surveyor and a builder separately, we bring all of those disciplines together — so there is a single point of accountability for cost, programme and quality from first survey to final handover.
Do you cover my area of London?
We work across 54 prime London neighbourhoods in North, Central and South West London, with a dedicated page for each. Choose your area from the list above, or get in touch and we will confirm we cover your street.
Can you handle planning, party wall and Licence to Alter?
Yes. We sequence the approvals your project needs before work starts — planning and conservation, Licence to Alter for leasehold flats, and party wall awards — with RICS surveying support through our sister company where needed.
How do you price a refurbishment?
From a defined scope, never a guess. We survey, review structure and approvals, and agree a written specification — then give a fixed price. Genuine unknowns are shown as clearly-labelled provisional sums, and every variation is priced and approved in writing before it goes ahead. Try our cost calculator for an early range.
Are you insured?
Yes — Hampstead Renovations Ltd carries £10M insurance through Aviva. Company registration 16838595, VAT GB 519 9139 59.
Do you work on flats and leasehold apartments?
Yes. Flat refurbishment is a core part of what we do, including mansion-block and period conversion flats, coordinated with freeholders, managing agents and Licence to Alter requirements.
