Luxury renovation company in London. Whole houses and apartments, priced open book, under one contract.
The work was seven months into a full refurbishment of a Chelsea house. This is where it had reached.
The scope grew after the opening-up survey. What began as a refurbishment of the principal rooms became a whole-house job. This happened once the floor levels were measured.
Every floor and ceiling in the house was levelled. On a period house that is rarely optional. Floors that run out by twenty millimetres across a room show in every skirting. They show in every door and every run of joinery. No amount of finishing hides it.
New handrails were made and fitted. They have iron spindles matched to the age of the staircase. The whole property was rewired. This also gave us the containment for the lighting control and data needed later. Wet underfloor heating went in across the ground floor.
The plastering followed. This is the point at which a house stops looking like a site. Flat, true walls are what every later finish is measured against.
