Renovating homes across Loughborough

We carry out kitchen, bathroom and full home renovations in Loughborough, one of our five core service areas. From family homes to rental properties near the university, we handle every trade under one project so the work runs in the right order.

From Loughborough we also cover Long Eaton, Beeston and across to Nottingham and Derby. Call us to check smaller villages nearby.

Loughborough property types we know

Loughborough has Victorian and Edwardian terraces close to the town centre, inter-war and post-war semis in areas such as Shelthorpe and Thorpe Acre, and many newer developments on the edges of town. Its large student population means a high number of rental properties, often converted family homes with extra bedrooms and heavily used kitchens and bathrooms.

What Loughborough homeowners ask us for

In Loughborough we’re regularly asked to refurbish rental properties between tenancies, replace hard-wearing kitchens and bathrooms in shared houses, and remodel family homes. After-build and regular cleaning are popular with landlords.

Local property issues

Common problems in Loughborough homes

Heavily used rental kitchens and bathrooms

Shared houses put kitchens and bathrooms under far more use than a typical family home. Worktops swell, sealant fails and extraction often can’t keep up. Durable materials and proper ventilation are essential.

Older terraces near the centre

Period terraces have solid walls, ageing roofs and original plaster that may be cracked or blown. Renovations often uncover work that needs doing before new finishes go on.

Condensation and mould

Busy households and limited ventilation lead to condensation, particularly in bathrooms and kitchens. Good extraction and moisture-resistant finishes help prevent recurring mould.

Quick turnarounds

Landlords often need work done between tenancies. Coordinating all trades under one team keeps the property empty for less time.

Planning guide

Planning a renovation in Loughborough

Building control and regulations in Loughborough

Loughborough falls under Charnwood Borough Council. Structural alterations such as removing load-bearing walls, along with certain electrical, drainage and other work, need to meet Building Regulations, and are inspected either by local authority building control or an approved inspector. Some projects, such as extensions or work on listed buildings or in conservation areas, may also need planning permission. For structural work and major remodels we work directly alongside building control officers and structural engineers, so the work meets regulatory standards.

Doing the work in the right order

The biggest cause of delays and extra cost on a renovation is trades arriving in the wrong order. On a typical Loughborough project, structural work and anything that opens up walls or floors comes first, followed by first-fix plumbing and electrics, then plastering. Kitchens and bathrooms are fitted next, then flooring and decorating, with a builders’ clean at the end. Because every trade sits under one VTR project, that sequence is planned once and followed, rather than left to separate firms to work out between themselves.

Getting the most from your site visit

Before we visit your Loughborough property, it helps to think about what you want the finished space to do for you: more room to cook, a bathroom that’s easier to keep clean, a layout that suits your family, or a property ready to let or sell. Photos of finishes you like, and any surveys or drawings you already have, are useful too. At the visit we look at the structure, services and condition of the property, talk through options, and then give you a written quotation so you can decide with the full picture.
