NU Projects is a design and build company in Fulham SW6, founded in 2010. We handle luxury refurbishment in Pimlico SW1V, under one contract. Nick prices a full renovation after a free visit. Call 020 7731 6841, and a budget estimate typically follows within seven days.
Pimlico’s squares were planned together, so their fronts match. Westminster wants them to stay that way. Stucco is painted in the terrace’s established colour, not brilliant white.
Most buildings here are flats. A refurbishment usually means one apartment, renewed from the floorboards up. Kitchens, bathrooms, wiring and heat are the usual scope.
Westminster’s City Plan supports this kind of work. Policy 43 backs refurbishing and reusing existing buildings. Policy 44 protects the special interest of listed ones.
Leasehold rules shape the timetable. The freeholder’s licence and the managing agent’s rules both apply. They often set when noisy work may run.
We have refurbished next door in Belgravia, a 2,000 sq ft apartment. We also fitted out a 1,500 sq ft apartment in SW1.

What colour can I paint my Pimlico stucco?
Westminster expects the terrace’s established colour.
Brilliant white is generally avoided, unless the terrace already uses it.
Gloss or eggshell, never a textured finish.
Does Westminster support refurbishing a Pimlico building rather than rebuilding?
Yes. Policy 43 supports refurbishing and reusing existing buildings.
Reuse is the starting point in the City Plan.
Who approves works inside a Pimlico leasehold flat?
Usually the freeholder, through a licence for alterations.
The managing agent sets the rules on site, including hours.
We read the lease before anything is drawn.
Does any Article 4 direction limit a Pimlico flat refurbishment?
None of Westminster’s minor alteration directions names Pimlico.
A citywide direction still removes basement permitted development.
We check the council’s map for each address.
