What Wimbledon properties actually throw up
- Victorian and Edwardian villas — Large rooms, original detail, and services that were last touched decades ago. Rewiring one of these properly is a bigger job than most quotes assume.
- Wimbledon Village and the conservation streets — Tight external controls and a high expectation on materials and detailing. We price to that standard rather than pretending it can be done cheaply.
- Purpose-built and converted flats — Lease terms, freeholder consent and restrictions on moving wet areas decide what is possible before design does.
SW19 splits sharply between the Village, where conservation controls and finish expectations are high, and the streets below the hill, where the work is more straightforward. We quote them differently because they are genuinely different jobs, not because of the postcode.

How we work
- Fixed price, agreed before we start. We survey the property, price the risks we can see, and hold that figure. We do not price low and find extras later.
- One team, one contact. Every trade is ours, so there is no gap between the plumber finishing and the tiler turning up, and nobody to blame if something is wrong.
- Two-year workmanship warranty on completed works.
- CDM Principal Contractor and Principal Designer qualified — the health and safety duty-holder role most small builders cannot take on, and a requirement on larger domestic projects.
- Over 100 completed projects across West London, including an eleven-flat commercial conversion.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a builder cost in Wimbledon?
For defined works we quote a fixed price rather than a day rate. As a guide, a bathroom refit starts from £3,500 + VAT and a full one or two-bed flat refurbishment from £18,000 + VAT. Small repair visits are quoted individually.
Do you charge for a quote or a site visit?
No. The survey and the written fixed-price quote are free, and there is no obligation.
How long does a bathroom take in Wimbledon?
Seven to ten working days for a standard three-piece refit. Layout changes, wet rooms and premium tiling run to two or three weeks, because the first-fix plumbing and tanking take longer.
Do I need planning permission to renovate in Wimbledon?
Merton Council covers planning and Building Control in Wimbledon. Internal renovation normally needs no planning permission. Wimbledon Village and several surrounding streets are conservation areas with restricted permitted development rights, so external changes usually need consent.
Do you work for landlords and letting agents in Wimbledon?
Yes — between-tenancy refreshes, full refurbishments and planned maintenance. Fixed prices and defined completion dates, which is usually what matters most when a property is standing empty.
Which areas near Wimbledon do you cover?
Wimbledon (SW19), Putney, Kingston upon Thames, Richmond, and the rest of West London.
