Planning a home renovation in Kent
A short guide for Kent homeowners planning painting, plastering, tiling, new flooring or a full refurbishment. These tips are based on the types of projects we complete most often.
1. Decide which rooms you want to improve first
Many customers start with the most used spaces: the living room, hallway or kitchen. It can be helpful to plan the order of rooms so you still have usable space while work is carried out.
2. Think about the finish you want
For example, smooth plastered walls ready for paint, tiled splashbacks in the kitchen, or hard-wearing laminate flooring in busy areas. Having a clear idea of colours and materials speeds up quoting and ordering.
3. Set a realistic budget
We can often suggest different options to suit different budgets – for example, where to invest in more premium finishes and where more standard products are suitable.
4. Plan around everyday life
We understand that most people still need to live in their homes while work is carried out. We keep areas as tidy as possible and can phase the work so you always have essential rooms usable.
5. Ask questions
We are happy to explain what is involved in each stage: plastering, drying times, preparation, painting, flooring and finishing. Good communication usually leads to the best results.
