Complete Property Refurbishment

Harcol Ltd refurbish whole properties, not just individual rooms. That covers houses bought to renovate, tired rental stock being brought back up to standard, and period homes that need bringing into usable condition without losing what makes them worth owning.

With over 30 years of building experience behind the company, we are used to properties that reveal problems once work starts. Old wiring, failed damp proofing, joists that were never sized properly. We would rather find those early and price them honestly than discover them halfway through.

What We Refurbish

A full refurbishment with us typically covers:

Strip-out and structural repairs
Rewiring, replumbing and new heating
Damp proofing, insulation and ventilation
New kitchens and bathrooms
Plastering, joinery, decorating and flooring
External repairs, roofing and groundworks

One team handles the whole programme, so there is a single point of responsibility from strip-out to handover.

Refurbishment for Landlords and Investors

Where a property is being refurbished to let or sell, the priorities are different and we work to them:

A fixed scope and programme so the void period is known
Specifications chosen for durability rather than fashion
Compliance work handled as part of the job

We will tell you plainly where money is worth spending and where it will not be returned.

Period and Older Properties

Older houses across this part of Kent and Sussex need a different approach to modern stock. Sealing an old building up tightly causes as many problems as it solves. We work with the way the building was built, repairing rather than replacing where that is the better answer.

Managing a Full Refurbishment

A whole-house refurbishment involves a lot of trades in a fixed order, and most of what goes wrong is sequencing rather than workmanship. We programme the job properly, keep you updated as it moves, and deal with the building control and inspection stages ourselves.
