Home / Sunderland / House renovations in Sunderland
Full and part renovations across Sunderland: strip-out, structural work, rewires, heating, kitchens, bathrooms, plastering and decorating, run as one programme by one firm.

Renovating a house usually means juggling an electrician, a plumber, a plasterer, a joiner and a builder who have never met. With us they all work for the same firm, follow one programme and answer to one Contracts Manager.
We renovate everything from Sunderland cottages and pit-village terraces to Victorian houses in Ashbrooke, for homeowners, landlords and people buying to do up and sell.
Sunderland cottages often hide damp in suspended timber floors and solid walls, and older terraces in Hendon, Millfield and Southwick can have original wiring and lead pipes. We survey for these before we price, so the quote reflects the house you have.
If you are buying a property to renovate, we can walk round it with you before you commit and give you an honest idea of what it will take.
Our customer service centre is at North Sands Business Centre in Monkwearmouth, and our vans are across Wearside every day. Planning and building control are handled by Sunderland City Council.

Where it's needed, we come and look properly: access, structure, levels and anything affecting the cost. Your chance to ask questions before we quote.
A clear, transparent quote setting out what's included, assumed and excluded, with a payment structure. Confidence in what you're accepting, not a one-line price.
Once you're happy, we sort dates, materials, access and building control before anyone lifts a tool, so the job runs smoothly on site.
Our team arrives clear on the agreed scope, keeps the site tidy, communicates as we go and respects your home throughout.
