    Local project guide

    Planning a Knightsbridge apartment or townhouse refurbishment

    Knightsbridge projects often depend as much on building management, listed status and logistics as on the interior design. A reliable pre-construction phase records existing services, approvals, access, protection and neighbour constraints before the programme and price are fixed.

    What to check before choosing a contractor

    • Confirm the freeholder licence, managing-agent rules and any listed-building or conservation consent before starting.
    • Plan deliveries, waste removal, lift protection and restricted working hours into the programme.
    • Approve joinery, stone, lighting and bathroom details early enough to protect long lead times.

    Knightsbridge: two councils, one postcode area

    Knightsbridge is split between Westminster and Kensington and Chelsea, so the first job is finding out which council your building is in. Our nearest finished work is the Chelsea flat refurbishment.

    What changes with the council

    On the RBKC side, new basements are normally limited to one storey. On the Westminster side, a basement means a Construction Management Plan under the council's Code of Construction Practice, approved before work starts. In either case, a flat needs the freeholder on board first.

    Common Questions

    Yes. In a leasehold building you'll usually need the freeholder's licence to alter before work starts. It's your application as the leaseholder. We can provide the method statements and programme the managing agent asks for, work with your architect on the drawings, and plan deliveries and access around the building's rules.

    Yes. Many buildings here are listed, and listed building consent can be needed for internal work as well as external. We'd work with your heritage consultant and the council's conservation officers (RBKC or Westminster, depending on the side you're on) before anything is designed. We haven't completed a Knightsbridge job yet; our nearest finished work is a flat refurbishment in Chelsea.

    We price lateral apartment remodels individually after a site visit, because the size, structure, specification and access vary so much from one property to the next. Your fixed quote is itemised and excludes VAT and professional fees (design, structural engineer, Building Control, party wall and planning fees), which are quoted separately.

    We'd agree working hours with the porters and managing agent, protect the communal areas and use dust barriers, and give you and the building one person to contact.

    Depending on scope, 6–12 months. We provide a detailed programme with milestone dates before work begins.
