Ways to renovate
Ways to renovate
The five main ways to renovate your home.
You don’t always need more space. Changing how your rooms are arranged, updating what you already have, or combining both can make your home work much better.
Divide
Create additional rooms
Divide an existing space to create a utility room, home office, extra bedroom, family bathroom or WC.
Resize
Change the size of your rooms
Move internal walls to give one room more space and another a little less. For example, make a small bedroom larger by taking space from an oversized landing.
Relocate
Move your kitchen or bathroom
Put rooms where they would work better. Move a kitchen to the back of the house, relocate a bathroom or make space for a new utility.
Modernise
Renovate the rooms you already have
Keep your existing layout while updating kitchens, bathrooms, wiring, plumbing, heating, insulation, flooring or finishes.
Your home could be renovated by by March.

HOMEOWNER INTERVIEW
What’s it like to renovate your home with Construct X Group?
Our client Genevieve talks through her flat renovation and side-return extension in Clapton, why she chose Construct X Group and what it was like having us work on her home.
“You guys were just heads and shoulders apart from all the others. You were really good at listening, and you made it clear that you’d be doing what I wanted to do, not what you thought I should do.”

Why renovate your home?
WHY RENOVATE
Why should you renovate your home?
Most homeowners we’ve spoken to renovate for at least two of these three reasons.
-
COMFORT
Make your home warmer and quieter
Insulating the floors and walls and replacing old windows can help your home hold its heat. Sound insulation between the floors can also keep more of the living room noise downstairs.
-
LAYOUT
Make the layout work for the way you live
Open up the ground floor into one kitchen and family room, or add a utility room and a downstairs WC, so every room works for the way you live.
-
CONDITION
Replace what’s worn out in one project
Old wiring, plumbing and dated kitchens and bathrooms are easier to replace together, while the floors and walls are already open, rather than one room at a time.
Renovation costs
Renovation costs
How much does it cost to renovate a home?
Two homes of the same size can cost very different amounts to renovate. Keeping the rooms where they are is one job. Moving walls, relocating a kitchen and rebuilding the floors is another.

Including VAT. Not a price for renovating an entire house.
- Fixed price
- The agreed price for work that’s clearly defined in your quote. It doesn’t change unless the scope changes and you agree to it.
- Allowance
- An estimated amount for work that hasn’t been fully decided yet. The price can go up or down once the details are confirmed.
- Separate
- Costs outside our quote, such as Building Control and Party Wall surveyor fees, which you normally pay directly.
If we uncover additional work
We’ll show you what we’ve found, explain what needs doing and agree the cost with you before the additional work goes ahead.
Work that couldn’t be seen or priced at the survey.
For example, old plaster that comes away when the wallpaper is stripped, or hidden rot, damp, old pipes or unsafe wiring found once the floors are up.
Where the survey shows a real risk, we suggest a contingency for that item rather than adding a blanket percentage to every quote.
If you decide to change something during the work, we price it and agree it with you in the same way.
What makes one renovation cost more than another?
The work involved can be very different from one home to another. These are some of the things that affect the price.
-
Changing the layout
Less work: Keep existing walls and room positions
More work: Remove load-bearing walls, install steel beams or move the kitchen
Each load-bearing wall that comes out needs a steel beam designed by a structural engineer, and temporary props while it goes in. Sometimes the posts that carry it need a new foundation too. When a kitchen or bathroom moves, the drains, the hot and cold supplies and the heating pipework move with it.
Changing the layout
- Keep existing walls and room positions
- More work
- Remove load-bearing walls, install steel beams or move the kitchen
-
Floors and heating
Less work: Keep a suitable existing floor
More work: Dig out and rebuild the floor, with insulation and underfloor heating
Digging out an old concrete floor to insulate it and lay underfloor heating adds around 3–4 weeks’ work. We often recommend it, because laying the heating on top of an uninsulated floor raises your floor level and loses heat into the ground.
Floors and heating
- Keep a suitable existing floor
- More work
- Dig out and rebuild the floor, with insulation and underfloor heating
-
Kitchens and bathrooms
Less work: Standard fittings in existing positions
More work: Move pipework, fit concealed plumbing or intricate tiling
A straightforward bathroom is different from one with concealed pipework, intricate tiling and made-to-measure fittings. Even when you buy the products, the installation work can differ.
Kitchens and bathrooms
- Standard fittings in existing positions
- More work
- Move pipework, fit concealed plumbing or intricate tiling
-
Living through the work
Less work: Work throughout an empty home
More work: Work in stages while you stay at home
If you stay, the floor we’re working on is sealed off from the one you’re living on with temporary partitions and doors. Renovating a floor at a time takes longer and can cost more than doing the whole house in one go.
Living through the work
- Work throughout an empty home
- More work
- Work in stages while you stay at home
How payments work
How payments work
You don’t pay for everything upfront.
How you pay: A 20% deposit when you sign the contract, then around ten stage payments as the work is done, with the last 5% once everything is finished and snagged.
How you’re protected: Before key stage payments, an independent inspector you appoint checks our work.
Renovation timings
Renovation timings
How long does it take to renovate a home?
Allow approximately
3–6 months
from committing to your project to a finished renovation.
- Pre-build
- A few weeks or more
- On site
- Usually 8–15 weeks
-
STEP 1
Survey
After your first call
Eddie visits to look at the condition of the house, the access and the structure, and to go through whatever drawings, layouts or ideas you have. Full architect’s drawings help, but a clear idea of what you want is enough to start.
-
STEP 2
Your itemised quote
After the survey
We prepare an itemised quote from the survey and what you’ve told us. You don’t need to have chosen every fitting and finish first. Anything still to be decided goes in as an allowance, which goes up or down once you’ve chosen, and any change is agreed with you before that work starts. The rest of the quote is a fixed price.
-
STEP 3
Structural design
Usually 1–2 weeks, if needed
If a load-bearing wall is coming out, our structural engineer designs the steel beam that takes its place and prepares the drawings. For one or two openings with a clear layout, that’s usually all the design you need. If you’re changing the layout more widely, we can bring in an architect.
-
STEP 4
Building Control
Before your start date
Where Building Control is needed, such as when removing a load-bearing wall, we help you appoint the appropriate inspector and arrange inspections as the work progresses. The Building Control fee is paid separately.
Also at this stage: Party Wall (if needed)
If a new steel beam will sit in a wall you share with a neighbour, you may need a . We can give you a notice template and recommend a surveyor, but you serve the notice and agree it with your neighbour. Any surveyors’ fees will be separate from the construction price. We recommend starting as soon as you’ve signed, as this can drag on quite a bit and risk delaying your start date.
-
STEP 5
Ordering your kitchen and finishes
Before we start on site
Kitchens, worktops, specialist glazing and anything made to order have lead times, so choose them early, before we start on site wherever you can. Send us the product links and we’ll check the sizes and the fit before you order.
-
STEP 6
Build on site
Usually 8–15 weeks
An empty three-bedroom house, rewired and replumbed with a new kitchen and two bathrooms, typically takes 8–12 weeks. The same house renovated a floor at a time while you live in it takes 10–15 weeks. A substantial ground floor on its own, with a structural opening, a new kitchen and new finishes, usually takes around 8 weeks. If the floor is dug out and rebuilt for underfloor heating, this can take 12 weeks or more.
What could affect the timeline?
A notice that drags on can delay the start. During the work, problems found once the wallpaper is off and the floors are up, or a kitchen or worktop ordered late, can add time.
A newly laid floor also needs time to dry before the finish can go down.
We’ll flag potential delays as early as possible.
During construction
During construction
What actually happens during the build?
Here’s how a substantial ground-floor renovation might unfold when we’re removing walls, rebuilding the floor and fitting a new kitchen. Some stages overlap, and not every renovation needs all of them.
Usually 11–12 weeks when the floor is rebuilt, 8 weeks when it isn’t.
-
01
Site setup & strip-out
Week 1On site
We protect the areas you’re keeping, set up the site and remove the old kitchen, flooring, wallpaper and anything else that’s going. If we’re removing walls, we measure up and order the steel beams.
At home
Before we start, we agree which rooms you can still use and how you’ll get in and out. If you’re staying, we can separate the working areas with temporary walls and doors. If we’re renovating the whole house at once, it’s usually not practical to live there during the work.
-
02
Structural work
Around weeks 2–3, if neededOn site
We put temporary supports in place, remove the agreed load-bearing walls and install the steel beams designed by the structural engineer. If the beams need new foundations to support them, we build those first.
At home
Once the new openings are in place, we can check the room measurements with your kitchen supplier before the kitchen is made. We also arrange the necessary Building Control inspections.
-
03
Floors, partitions & first fix
Around weeks 3–6On site
If we’re rebuilding the floor, we dig out the old concrete and move any drainage that needs changing while the ground is open. We then build the new floor and internal walls, run the electrical cables and plumbing, and install underfloor heating where included.
At home
We’ll go through socket, switch and lighting positions with you before we close up the walls. Water, electricity or heating may need to be turned off during some of this work, but we’ll let you know about planned interruptions in advance.
-
04
Insulation, plasterboard & plaster
Around weeks 6–8On site
We install the insulation, put up plasterboard where needed and plaster the rooms. If the existing plaster is in good condition, we can keep it and skim over it. If it’s loose or badly damaged, we’ll discuss whether it needs replacing.
At home
Your rooms start taking shape again. By now, your kitchen, bathroom fittings, tiles and flooring should be ordered so they’re ready when we need to fit them.
-
05
Second fix, kitchen & bathrooms
Around weeks 8–11On site
We fit and connect the lights, sockets, radiators and bathroom fixtures, then install the kitchen, flooring, doors and skirtings. A typical kitchen takes 2–5 working days to fit once the room and units are ready.
At home
If you’ve chosen stone worktops, a specialist measures up after we’ve fitted the kitchen units. They then make the worktops and return to install them. We also usually complete bathrooms one at a time, so we’ll plan the work around the facilities you need.
-
06
Decorating, snagging & completion
Around weeks 11–12 or laterOn site
We finish the decorating, check our work and put right anything outstanding. We also arrange the relevant electrical, gas and Building Control completion documentation.
At home
We’ll ask you to make a list of anything you’d like us to check before we walk through the finished rooms together. We remove any remaining waste and clean up the areas we’ve worked in. If you’d like a professional deep clean, we can arrange that separately.

Planning & approvals
Planning & approvals
What approvals might my renovation need?
Most changes inside your home don’t need planning permission. But structural alterations, new drainage or work to a shared wall can bring other requirements. We’ll explain what applies to your project and what we can help arrange.
- Read our planning permission guide
Planning permission
Do I need planning permission to renovate?
Usually not for work inside your home, even when you’re moving or removing internal walls.
If you’re changing the outside of the property, we’ll check whether planning permission is needed.
- Read our listed building consent guide
Listed buildings
What if my home is listed?
Changes that affect the character of a listed home can need listed building consent, even inside it. That could include removing walls or altering original features.
We’ll help you identify what needs checking before work starts.
- Read our building regulations guide
Building regulations
What Building Regulations apply?
Removing load-bearing walls, changing drainage and certain electrical work must meet Building Regulations.
Where Building Control is needed, we help you appoint the inspector, arrange inspections during the work and coordinate the completion sign-off. You pay the Building Control fee separately.
What else might need arranging?
- Read our Party Wall guide
Party wall
Do I need a Party Wall agreement?
If we’re putting a steel beam into a wall you share with a neighbour, you may need to serve a Party Wall notice, even if planning permission isn’t needed.
We can provide a notice template and recommend a surveyor, but you’re responsible for arranging the formal Party Wall process. Surveyors’ fees are paid separately.
- Read our structural engineering guide
Structural engineer
When do I need a structural engineer?
If we’re removing a load-bearing wall, a structural engineer works out how to support the weight above and prepares the drawings we build from.
We can arrange our own engineer. Straightforward designs usually take 1–2 weeks, and their fee is itemised in your quotation.
- Read our guide to renovating a leasehold flat
Flats
What if I live in a flat?
If your flat is leasehold, you may need written consent from your freeholder, depending on what your lease says.
If the work affects a wall or floor shared with other flats, the Party Wall process may also apply, including neighbours above or below you.
“We recently used Construct X for a major project at our home, including the construction of an extension and a complete renovation of most of the ground floor.”
The work involved significant structural changes, including excavating the existing floor to install insulation and underfloor heating throughout, and we have been extremely pleased with both the process and the finished result.
The quality of workmanship has been excellent. The extension is spacious, well-constructed and blends beautifully with the existing property, while the ground floor renovation has completely transformed the way we use our home. Great attention was paid to detail, and the standard of finish exceeded our expectations.
A particular mention should go to Eddie, Ben and the wider team. They were always friendly, professional and courteous, making what could have been a very disruptive project far easier to manage. Communication was clear throughout, and they were consistently willing to listen, offer advice and adapt to changes in the plans. Whether alterations were needed because of unforeseen circumstances or simply to improve the overall design, they approached every challenge positively and constructively.
Their flexibility, problem-solving approach and commitment to achieving the best outcome were evident from start to finish. It was clear they took genuine pride in their work and cared about delivering a result that we would be happy with for years to come.
We would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone considering an extension, renovation or major building project.
They delivered a high-quality result, were a pleasure to work with, and made a complex project as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Thoroughly recommended.

Google 5.0 No surprises, with kids at home
ConstructX recently did a side return extension, utility cupboard and cloakroom / WC for us in SE London. They were great to work with, reliable, delivered on time and exactly what we asked for. They were also really helpful, advising on different options always with cost efficiency in mind. All the team are polite, friendly, considerate and cleaned the workspace up well each day after work. We really appreciated this given we were living in the property with children for the whole duration. Also very clear communication meaning no surprises! I'd definitely recommend Eddie, Ben, Sali and the whole team - thank you!

Google 5.0 Service second to none
I could not speak more highly of this amazing company. Their communication skills and customer service is second to none. Always going over and above to make sure I was happy with every detail of the project and offering any kind of extra support I needed. They were always there at the end of a phone any time I needed. Their personal family run business makes for such a lovely experience with such a trusted team you know you are in safe hands which makes them so wonderful to work with. They were efficient, ok time and flexible to meet my taste and exceed my expectations of the build. It is a beautiful finish and I couldn’t be happier with the extension they build and the interiors they fitted. Would highly recommend you choose Construct X for your next project.

Google 5.0 Back for a second project
ConstructX Group have just finished a large extension for us and we’re genuinely really happy with it. They previously did our loft conversion back in 2023, so when we decided to take on this bigger project a few years later, we went straight back to them. They were easy to deal with, well organised, and the workmanship was spot on. Communication was clear throughout and the whole job felt properly managed. The new space has made a massive difference to how we live in the house and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

houzz 5.0 Garage to fantastic new space
ConstructX Group created a fantastic new living space for us through what was effectively a side extension rebuild. The original garage was demolished and rebuilt to current regulations with new cavity walls, plus a new pitched roof with two fixed skylights. The team were professional, communicated well throughout, and the quality of workmanship and finish was excellent. I’d happily recommend them.

Excellent family team. Eddie, his brother Ben and their Dad were truly excellent from start to end. They did our kitchen extension in 22/23 and we are so happy with the end result and how they managed the whole process. I felt very comfortable and safe with them and all their workers being in our house and around my young baby. Highly recommend this excellent team.
Kate Newman Kitchen extension September 2025
Google 5.0 Felt like part of the family
ConstructX Group did a rear extension on our house which took about 3-4 months. The work moved quickly and the end result is absolutely beautiful. We couldn’t be happier with the end result. We had a 2 and 4 year old at the time and we were anxious about living in the house whilst renovating, but honestly Eddie, his brother and Dad were absolute delights and made it so much nicer. They always made sure at the end of the day everything was in a safe way and were so accommodating. I can’t imagine having a renovation completed with anyone else as it really felt like being part of the family whilst they were doing the work. I can’t recommend them enough; we have used their services since to do some work on our front garden and will definitely use them in the future.

Our experience with this team was so refreshing. They are hard working, great communicators who were able to manage expectations and the quality of their work superb. It’s very rare to find a building team in the UK who are able to tick all 3 of these boxes. We would not hesitate to use them again and would recommend them wholeheartedly.

Google 5.0 Kitchen space transformed
Very pleased with our kitchen extension, the space has been absolutely transformed. What particularly impressed us was how friendly and communicative Eddie and his team were. It’s lovely to see a family working well together and it was always a pleasure to have them in the house. It was a big project and they ran and executed it brilliantly.

Trustpilot 5.0 A professional team
Eddie, his Dad and team carried out a side return extension and kitchen/ dining room remodel and I am very happy with it. The work was carried out to schedule and I was kept informed on what was happening each week. All the workers were very professional and courteous and the work was carried out to an excellent standard. I was so pleased with the work that I recommended the team to my next door neighbours, who had a similar project carried out.

Google 5.0 Knock-through, bang on time
Couldn't be happier with our new kitchen and dining area, ConstructX are perfectionists! Super professional and efficient, amazing eye for detail, and everything was finished bang on time. The job was a bit tricky due to the need to knock-down a load-bearing wall, but the team did a great job of addressing my concerns (great communication all round) and everything went exactly as planned. Would definitely recommend for any conversions/extensions, and will absolutely be using them again in the future. Thank you Eddie and the team!
