Renovations & Refurbishments in Falmouth
Homes in Falmouth
Falmouth is a harbour town, and much of its housing is older terraced and Victorian property, often on steep streets near the water. Renovating a house like that means working with rooms that already have their own layout, structure and character, so it helps to describe the house as it stands now, not just the result you want. We take on character and period homes as part of our renovations and refurbishments. If your home is a listed building, alterations that affect its character need listed building consent, and that can include some internal work, so check this before your plans are fixed. The photo on this page shows finished renovation work of ours, and the review beside it praises the team's professionalism, workmanship and standard of finish.
“I contacted Mitchell and Andrew for a renovation to our downstairs bathroom. They have done fantastic job, they were professional in every approach but the level of workmanship and dedication they put into their work and standard of finish was truly another level. We are beyond thrilled with our new bathroom. A huge thank you to the team and wouldn't hesitate in recommending further.”
What matters for renovations & refurbishments in Falmouth
For Renovations & refurbishments in Falmouth, we manage the project in-house, covering groundwork, structural work, finishing and project management. The job starts with a clear picture of the property as it is now and what you want the finished space to do, and the scope is discussed from there.
- Start with the property and the rooms or areas you want to change.
- Tell us what the house is like now, for example whether it is an older terrace or a Victorian property, so we know what we are working with.
- Share any drawings or photographs you already have.
Questions about renovations & refurbishments in Falmouth
Do you work on older terraced and Victorian houses in Falmouth?
Yes. Our renovations and refurbishments include character and period homes. Tell us what the house is like now and which rooms or areas you want to change, and send photographs if you have them, so we understand the property before the scope is discussed.
We'd like to knock through between rooms. What should we sort out first?
Find out whether the wall is load-bearing. Taking out a load-bearing wall must meet the Building Regulations and usually needs a steel beam sized by a structural engineer. Structural work is part of what our team manages in-house, so mention the wall you want to remove when you first describe the project.
Can a kitchen or bathroom be part of a wider renovation?
Yes. When you get in touch, say whether your plans involve the whole property, a kitchen or bathroom, or carpentry and joinery alongside the renovation. Describing the connected work at the start helps us understand the full job before the scope is discussed.
