Builders in South Kensington
Refurbishments and renovations for South Kensington flats, mews houses and townhouses, carried out with the care these buildings need.
Our work in South Kensington
South Kensington is mostly white stucco terraces, red-brick mansion blocks and mews houses, much of it inside conservation areas and plenty of it listed. Most projects here are internal: a full refurbishment of a flat or house, a new kitchen and bathrooms, or reworking a layout that no longer suits.
- Full flat and house refurbishments
- Kitchen and bathroom renovations
- Layout changes and structural alterations
- Mews house refurbishments
- Period details restored: cornicing, joinery, floors
- Fully managed, with one point of contact

Planning in Kensington and Chelsea
South Kensington is in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, which is careful about change to historic streets. Front elevations, roofs, windows and railings are closely protected, and the council has strict policies on basement excavation.
That doesn't stop you making a home work better. Internal refurbishments, new kitchens and bathrooms, rewiring and replumbing, and careful repairs to period features are usually straightforward, and where consent is needed we'll work with your architect to get it right first time.
Questions about building in South Kensington
Do you work in mansion block flats?
Yes. Mansion block flats come with extra steps, such as a licence to alter, agreed working hours and protection for the common parts. We'll deal with the managing agent from the start.
Can I extend a house in South Kensington?
Sometimes, but expect to need full planning permission and close scrutiny, especially in a conservation area or on a listed building. We'll give you an honest view at the site visit before you commission drawings.
Do you only take on large projects?
No. We take on full refurbishments and smaller jobs like a kitchen or bathroom. Every job gets the same itemised quote and the same team.
