Typical Chelsea challenges (and how we plan for them)

Chelsea projects often involve constraints that can derail budgets and timelines if not addressed early:
- Access + working hours (mansions blocks, porter requirements, lift protection)
- Neighbours + noise management (clear schedule and considerate sequencing)
- Parking/loading (planning deliveries, timed waste collections)
- Older building fabric (unexpected substrate issues behind walls/floors)
- Compliance & sign-off (electrics, ventilation, safety—handled in scope)

We plan these items before demolition starts, so the programme is realistic and the site runs calmly.

Premium Quality at Speed: How It Works

Our speed comes from excellence in planning and execution, not from cutting corners

Pre-Project Planning

Everything is ordered and scheduled before day 1. Cabinets, worktops, appliances, tiles, flooring—all pre-ordered with delivery coordinated to our timeline. We don't start until we're 100% ready.

Dedicated Project Manager

Single point of contact throughout your project. Your project manager coordinates all trades, manages the timeline, and keeps you informed daily. No juggling multiple contractors.
Mockup

Established Trade Network

Our teams work together regularly. The plumber knows the electrician, the tiler knows the plasterer. This familiarity eliminates delays and miscommunication that plague typical projects.

Supplier Relationships

Priority access to premium materials through long-standing supplier relationships. No waiting for stock, no substitutions, no compromises. We get what we need when we need it.

Quality Checkpoints Built In

Quality checks at each phase, not added at the end. This catches issues early and eliminates costly re-work. We build it right the first time.

How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Chelsea?

Costs vary widely depending on layout changes, moving services (gas/water/electrics), specification level (worktops, flooring, joinery), and access constraints. If you share your address (or block type) and goals, we can outline the biggest cost drivers and a sensible budget range. Just check out out kitchen cost calculator.

Do you handle the whole renovation or just the fitting?

We can manage the full refurbishment scope (strip-out to finishes) and coordinate installation—so the kitchen, electrics, plumbing, flooring, and decoration all land correctly together. Confirm what you want included at survey stage.

How long does a Chelsea kitchen refurbishment take?

Timelines depend on complexity (structural changes, bespoke joinery, flooring build-up, drying times). Many projects run in phases: enabling/first-fix, making good, installation, second-fix, finishing. We provide a programme once scope and lead times are confirmed.

Can you renovate kitchens in flats and mansion blocks?

Yes—these projects just need stricter planning: access, noise hours, protection to common parts, deliveries, and waste removal. We plan logistics upfront to reduce disruption.

Will I need to move out during the renovation?

Not always, but it depends on whether the kitchen is your only cooking space and how extensive the works are. We’ll talk through practical options after the survey.

Do you help with design?

If you already have a kitchen designer, we can work to those plans and advise on buildability. If you need help coordinating design decisions (layout, services, lighting), we can support that as part of the pre-start phase.

What types of construction projects do you handle?

We specialize in a wide range of projects, including high-end kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, extensions, loft conversions, roofing, internal and external works, and more.

How do I get started with a project?

Simply reach out to us via phone or email, and our team will schedule a consultation to discuss your project's details and your vision.

Do you provide design services?

Yes, we have a team of skilled designers who can help you create a customised design that aligns with your preferences and needs.

Can you help with obtaining permits and approvals?

Absolutely. We have experience navigating the permitting process and can guide you through the necessary steps.

How long do projects typically take to complete?

Project timelines can vary based on the scope and complexity. During the consultation, we'll provide you with an estimated timeline for your specific project. But most of our projects are completed within 90 days and we will inform you if it will take longer and the reasons why this could happen.

What materials do you use?

We prioritise quality and durability. We use top-grade materials that are both visually appealing and built to last.

How do you handle project budgets?

Our team provides detailed proposals with estimated costs. We work closely with you to ensure the project aligns with your budget while maintaining quality.

Do you offer commercial construction services?

Certainly. We're well-equipped to collaborate seamlessly with existing plans or integrate our expertise with your architects' vision.
