The honest answer

What a house refurbishment
really costs in London.

A full house refurbishment in London costs between £45,000 and £160,000+ + VAT depending on size and specification. A cosmetic refurbishment of a three-bedroom house — new kitchen and bathroom, new flooring, full redecoration and repairs — is typically £25,000–£45,000. A full refurbishment adding rewiring, replumbing, replastering and a new heating system is £45,000–£90,000.

The cost drivers are the scope (cosmetic versus full strip-back), the number of kitchens and bathrooms, whether the house needs rewiring or a new boiler, plastering, the flooring and decorating specification, and any structural work such as opening up the kitchen. We price each trade as a separate line so you can see where the money goes and adjust the scope.

Tom Harvey Contractors provides free site visits and itemised written quotes, a written programme, staged payments (40/30/30 on larger projects) and a 24-month workmanship warranty on projects over £10k.

Common questions

Your questions
answered.

A cosmetic refurbishment of a three-bedroom house — kitchen, bathroom, flooring, decoration and repairs — costs £25,000–£45,000 + VAT. A full refurbishment with rewiring, replumbing, replastering and new kitchen and bathrooms is £45,000–£90,000. Four- and five-bedroom houses with structural work and premium finishes are £80,000–£160,000+.
A cosmetic refurbishment takes 4–6 weeks. A full refurbishment of a three-bedroom house takes 8–12 weeks. Large houses with structural work take 12–20 weeks. We provide a written programme at quote stage and update it weekly.
For a cosmetic refurbishment you can usually stay, room by room. For a full refurbishment with rewiring, replastering and new bathrooms, moving out is strongly advised — it's faster, cheaper and far less stressful. We'll advise honestly at the survey.
On projects over £10,000 we work to a staged payment schedule — typically 40% on start, 30% at an agreed midpoint and 30% on completion. Every stage is tied to work done, and you get a VAT invoice for each.
Yes — one contractor, one quote, one point of contact. We coordinate decorators, flooring fitters, carpenters, plumbers, electricians, plasterers and tilers, and we can work with your architect or designer where there's one.
We work to Building Regulations on all electrical, plumbing, drainage and structural work and can arrange Building Control notifications. Planning applications and structural calculations are handled by your architect or engineer; we can recommend one.
12 months on all workmanship as standard, extended to 24 months on projects over £10,000. Manufacturer warranties on kitchens, appliances, boilers and flooring are passed on to you.
Yes — it's the ideal time. Give us the keys between completion and moving day and the work is faster and cheaper with the house empty. We can survey before you exchange so you know the cost in advance.
