Lowton refurbishments — questions we're asked
Do you decorate, or do I need a separate decorator?
We have decorators we work with on almost every job, so quotes are usually turnkey unless you specifically want to arrange painting yourself.
How much mess should I expect if I stay in the house during a Lowton refurb?
We seal off working areas with dust curtains and vacuum daily. Most families in Lowton live around a phased refurb comfortably — we just plan sequencing around the bathroom and kitchen so you're never without both at once.
Can you refurbish a house I'm renting out in Lowton?
Yes — a big share of our refurb work around Lowton is between-tenancy refits. We turn a tired property around inside 2–4 weeks depending on scope and hand over EICR-compliant.
Can you do just one room?
Yes — single-room refits are welcome. Bathrooms, snugs and utility conversions are common one-room jobs.
Do you handle bathrooms as part of a wider refurb?
Yes — full bathroom refits including waste re-routes, wet-wall or fully tiled shower enclosures, and new suite are a standard part of most refurbishment projects.
