House Renovation FAQs - Chelsea
Do I need planning permission to renovate my Chelsea house?
Internal renovations typically don't require planning permission, but external changes in conservation areas do. Listed buildings require consent for most alterations. We assess your project and handle all necessary applications with the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea.
How much does a house renovation cost in Chelsea?
Renovation costs vary significantly depending on property size and specification. Apartment fit-outs typically start from £80,000, while complete house refurbishments range from £150,000 to £300,000+. High-end period property restorations can exceed £600,000. We provide detailed quotes after an initial consultation.
How long does a house renovation take?
Apartment renovations typically take 8-12 weeks, while full house refurbishments take 3-6 months. Period property restorations can take 6-12 months depending on complexity. We provide detailed programs and maintain clear communication throughout the project.
Will I need to move out during renovation?
For full house renovations, we recommend moving out to avoid dust, noise, and disruption. Partial renovations can often be phased to allow you to remain in part of the property. We work with you to minimize disruption and provide flexible scheduling.
Do you work in conservation areas and on listed buildings?
Yes, we have extensive experience working in Chelsea's conservation areas and on listed buildings. We understand RBKC's requirements and work with conservation officers to ensure all works are sympathetic and compliant. We handle all consents and approvals.

"The first project we trusted Tom and Milen with was a house conversion into 4 flats. We didn't know it at the time, but using Bluebird for such a big project was the best decision we have made. They are our first call when we find another development."
