    How a Flat Renovation Works — Step by Step

    We know how overwhelming a full renovation can feel at the start. Here's exactly what happens when you work with us.

    1

    Free design consultation

    We visit your flat, listen to what you want to achieve, and give you honest advice on what's possible within your budget. No sales pressure — just a straightforward conversation with one of our team.

    2

    Design and specification

    Whether you have your own designer, a clear vision you want us to work from, or you'd like our in-house design team to take the lead — we adapt to suit. We draw up the plans, specify materials and fittings, and produce a full scope of works. Everything is agreed in writing before we start — no ambiguity, no surprises.

    3

    Fixed-price quote

    Before a single tool is picked up, you receive a detailed, fixed-price quote. The price we agree is the price you pay. If you want to change or add something during the project, we discuss it and agree it in writing first.

    Our own skilled team carries out all works from day one through to completion. Your dedicated project manager is your single point of contact throughout — keeping you updated and any questions answered quickly.

    Why Homeowners in London Choose Bluebird Spaces

    FMB Accredited

    We're members of the Federation of Master Builders — independently vetted on workmanship, insurance and trading standards. It's one of the most meaningful quality marks a UK builder can hold.

    Fixed price, always

    Your quote is your final price. We don't add surprises once the work has started. If you decide to change or add something mid-project, we discuss and agree it in writing first.

    Your own team, not subcontractors

    We don't farm out your renovation to whoever is available. The same skilled tradespeople work your project from day one to completion — which means consistent quality and genuine accountability.

    In-house design

    Our designers work alongside our builders from the very start. That means the plans are buildable, the materials are available, and the finished result matches what was drawn.

    Flat renovation specialists

    Flats come with their own challenges — leasehold permissions, freeholder requirements, party wall agreements, noise restrictions in occupied buildings. We've navigated all of it, many times over.

    Underfloor heating & custom carpentry

    We install both electric and wet UFH systems, and our in-house carpenters build bespoke joinery — from alcove units to full custom kitchens. No need to bring in separate trades.

    Flat Renovation FAQs

    Almost certainly yes, for structural or significant internal works. You will usually need a Licence for Alterations from your freeholder before works begin. We can advise on what is typically required and help you prepare the necessary information for your freeholder or solicitor.

    For a full gut-and-refit, yes — the flat will not be habitable during the main works. Most projects run for 8 to 14 weeks depending on the size of the flat and the scope of work. We give you a clear programme and timeline before we start so you can plan accordingly.

    Most internal flat renovations do not require planning permission. However, if your project involves changes to windows or external appearance, or if your building is listed or in a conservation area, our in-house design team handles the full planning process on your behalf.

    Every project is different, but a complete gut-and-refit of a one- or two-bedroom London flat typically starts from £65,000, with larger or higher-specification projects running considerably more. We provide a detailed fixed-price quote after your initial consultation — with full transparency on where your budget is going.

    Yes. We install both electric and wet (hydronic) underfloor heating systems. The right system depends on your floor build-up and the project scope — our team will advise on the best option for your flat during the design stage.
