Our clients have many reasons for choosing to 'up-size' their home. Many are looking to create more space to accommodate a growing family. Others want to add value by optimizing the use of available space; such as adding a garage, or an extra level of bedroom space. Whether it's adding an extra bedroom, a second floor, or a complete house extension – we have the experienced home renovation builders, designers and project managers to make it happen.
Kitchen Renovation Architects
Renovating a cramped kitchen can make such a difference to daily living. Not only does a modern kitchen make meal preparation easier, but it also makes entertaining more enjoyable and that's not to mention the capital value it adds to your home. Our renovation builders will help you design the layout, and source the very best cabinetry and fit-out – including all-important appliances. The group buying power of Refresh means you'll receive the best quality materials for your budget.
Bathroom Renovation Architects
As most bathrooms have space restrictions, clever design is crucial. Our expert designers will help you create a bathroom that combines style with the ultimate functionality. What's more, our design process lets you envisage exactly how it will work. This helps you get the little things right - whether it's the height of the shower, the way the doors open, or the position of the hand-basin.
Loft/Second-Storey Architects
Home-owners are looking to create more space for a growing family or wants to add value by optimising the use of available space; such as converting a loft, or adding an extra level. These extensions are usually large-scale and daunting renovation projects - But when you partner with Refresh, we'll remove all worries and uncertainty.

Excavation/Basement Architects
With section sizes and lawn space at a premium, plus height and boundary limitations, basement conversions are fast becoming a prefered choice for creating additional living space. In many cases, an existing basement space can be adapted and transformed. If your home does not have an existing basement, earthwork excavation and disposal have to be factored into the project.
Granny Flat Architects
The perfect roof for your home is more than just good looks and affordability. Environmental factors, materials, roof design, durability, and maintenance requirements all need to be considered. If you want the very best outcome, for the best price, you need our team of renovation specialists on your side. We pride ourselves on delivering the very best results for our customers.
Only about 6% of homes in the UK were built during or after 2012, which means there are quite a few old bathrooms out there! Many homeowners enamoured with the charm of older homes still want the convenience of modern features, which may seem like a difficult balance to strike but we’re here to help.
Describing a bathroom as “high performance” means that form and function have been given equal consideration throughout the design. After all, a beautiful bathroom that doesn’t function properly is practically useless and, as an essential facility, what’s the point of that? The ideal bathroom features an expertly designed interior complemented by modern-day amenities.
From compact city flats to spacious country residences, our team of experienced renovation professionals is dedicated to designing a bathroom that is perfectly suited to your lifestyle needs and your home’s aesthetic.
How does Refresh help?
Though bathroom renovations are relatively small scale, there’s no shortage of challenges involved. Having completed thousands of successful renovations, we’ve seen them all and are well-equipped to face obstacles head-on. The 5-step Refresh process was designed to mitigate risks; our experienced Renovation Consultants utilise this method to deliver renovations on time and within budget.
“From the moment Refresh Renovations came for a home visit, we knew we were in good hands. They ensured everything ran as smoothly as possible during our bathroom renovation. Refresh understood our needs and I highly recommend them. Should the need arise, we would be more than happy to use Refresh again.” - Kim, Refresh client
Transparent communication and thorough planning are at the core of our process as we believe these factors have the most significant impact on a successful renovation. But we don’t measure success solely on the results of a project. Homeowner satisfaction is a driving force behind Refresh and it’s our mission to provide a positive and stress-free experience.

A smoother bathroom renovation process
Our 5-step approach to renovations was designed to keep projects running smooth, on schedule, and within budget.
Step 1
Briefing / Initial Consultation
Starting off your bathroom renovation journey with a thorough consultation gets everyone on the same page. It’s an opportunity for you to share all your ideas, big and small, with your Renovation Consultant. If you need a walk-in shower for ageing parents or an extra tub for washing your dog, now is the time to let us know!
Step 2
Concept and Feasibility
Once you’ve shared your goals, you and your Renovation Consultant will review concept designs to determine what’s achievable. You may find that you need to make tweaks to come in under budget, or that you can make some unexpected upgrades such as opting for a marble vanity. Regardless of what they may be, this is a great stage in the process to make changes to your bathroom design.
Step 3
Working Drawings and Costing
Working drawings are the next step. They differ from concept drawings because they take into account the functionality of your design and focus on aspects such as structural integrity and architectural engineering. You’ll always be in control, but to avoid additional expenses and delays further along, this is when you want to make any changes to the plans as it’s the last step before building begins. If no further alterations are necessary, you’ll be presented with a fixed quote and contract to sign off on before moving forward.
Step 4
Build / Construction Stage
Now is when you get to sit back and watch your bathroom take shape. Reliable contractors and trusted tradespeople, coordinated by your Renovation Consultant, will transform your existing space into the bathroom you've been dreaming of. If any unexpected issues arise, you can rest assured they’ll be dealt with promptly and with minimal disruption to your daily routine.
Step 5
Your Finished Renovation
That’s it! Your renovation is finished! Alongside your fantastic new bathroom, your Renovation Consultant will provide you with the necessary council documentation. A completed Code of Compliance certificate is required to prove that all craftsmanship was completed to a high standard. Keep that somewhere safe, and then enjoy your new bathroom!

What are popular bathroom design styles in the UK?
This is a list of some of the common design styles that we are seeing in our projects across the UK:
- Classic Contemporary: Classic contemporary style interiors are curated, minimal, and uncluttered. This style focuses on refined elegance, where handcrafted, quality-made pieces, deliberate use of colour and texture, and attention to detail combine to achieve sophistication and timeless beauty.
- Modern Traditional: Modern Traditional combines the classic shapes and vintage appeal of traditional decor, with the clean lines and simplistic hues of contemporary furnishings. It's the balance (and it is all about the balance!) of old meets new that can make a space feel refined and elegant yet relaxed and cosy at the same time.
Do I need Buildings Regulations approval to renovate my bathroom?
In the United Kingdom, the need for a Buildings Regulations approval for a new bathroom largely depends on the extent of the work involved.
Generally, if your bathroom renovation involves structural changes, plumbing alterations, or electrical work, it is likely that you will require a building consent. This is because these changes may affect the safety, durability, and compliance of the building.
Your renovation consultant at Refresh can take care of this on your behalf during the Working Drawings and Costing stage of the process. They will be able to assess whether a building consent is required and guide you through the process to ensure compliance with the UK’s building standards.
How long does a bathroom renovation usually take in the UK?
The duration of a bathroom renovation project can vary greatly depending on a number of factors such as the scope of the project and the specific circumstances of the remodel. A minor remodel that involves primarily cosmetic changes such as painting, replacing fixtures, or updating the lighting could take a few days to a week to complete.
However, a major bathroom renovation that involves significant changes to the layout or requires extensive plumbing or electrical work could take several weeks or even months to complete. During our working drawings and costing stage of our bespoke 5-step process, we will work with you to prepare a gantt chart showing expected timeline for your bathroom remodeling project.
What factors should I consider when planning a bathroom renovation? UK
If you’re thinking about renovating your bathroom, ask yourself the following questions:
- What design style are you drawn to? (e.g. minimalist, modern, classic)
- Have you considered a budget? Do you need to talk to a bank or mortgage broker about finance?
- Have you checked your calendar for the most convenient time of year to renovate your bathroom?
- If you have only one bathroom in your house, have you considered an alternative solution whilst the bathroom is undergoing the renovation?
- How much space is there to work with, do you need to extend or is there sufficient space available to achieve what you are looking for?
- How much storage is required?
Having this information ready will make it that much easier to plan your bathroom remodelling project with our team.
How much does a bathroom renovation typically cost in the UK?
At Refresh, we’ve completed a range of bathroom renovations costing anywhere from around £8,000 to upwards of £30,000, each one accomplishing a different goal. Get in touch to schedule an initial briefing meeting - we can work with you through our concept and feasibility process to understand the options, ideas and costs for your project.
Bathroom Inspiration & Advice
Need some help getting started? Take a look at our collection of inspiration and advice articles where we talk about everything from renovating on a budget top bathroom design trends.
Open-Plan Renovation Architects
Is it time to give your home some more 'breathing space'? An open-plan renovation will free up this space - providing more light and giving your house a brand new feel. Maybe you want to enlarge your living spaces, or open up a kitchen and dining area for better flow. Or perhaps you have a small or awkward space that would be better utilised when opened up.
Indoor-Outdoor Flow Renovation
Improving your indoor-outdoor flow will transform the way you live; by creating more space for your family and entertaining. Sometimes all the elements are there, but you just need to improve the layout. This might involve revamping the deck, installing French windows or bi-fold doors to give easier access; or simply creating a more useable patio area.
Re-Siding & Repainting
As any real estate expert will tell you, first impressions count. A tired exterior significantly lowers the value of a house, even though the interior and location might be very appealing. That's why many home owners choose to re-side (re-clad) or repaint their home to modernize and add value. There are some other benefits to re-siding. While the siding is off, you have the opportunity to address other aspects of a renovation (such as insulation, wiring, plumbing etc.) in a much more cost-effective way. In fact, the savings you make on these upgrades can go a long way towards covering the cost of re-siding.
Re-Roofing Renovation Architects
The perfect roof for your home is more than just good looks and affordability. Environmental factors, materials, roof design, durability, and maintenance requirements all need to be considered. If you want the very best outcome, for the best price, you need our team of renovation builders on your side. Using either licensed building practitioners, master builders or certified builders is a priority for us.
Warm Up Your Home
If your home doesn't have good insulation you're probably spending more than you should to keep your home warm (and those power bills only seem to get bigger). So it's not surprising that more house-owners are looking for better insulations and efficient home heating systems. Not only does it create a warmer, healthier home to live in; it also reduces your ongoing energy costs, and adds value for re-sale.
Cool Down Your Home
From window orientation and size, triple glazing, and air conditioning to ceiling fans, programmable controls and shaded sails, we can find the perfect solution for cooling down your home. For instance, our experts suggest adding permanent outdoor living areas on the northern and western sides of your home with moveable solutions like louvred roofs, retractable awnings, and external shutters.
Outdoor Renovation Architects
Whether you want to create a new outdoor room – or landscape your garden area – the team at Refresh Renovations can help. We have house and landscape designers who can discuss all the options with you. Perhaps you're looking for a new landscaping design and layout that will make maximum use of your garden area. Or maybe you want to adopt the hot trend and create an outdoor room. This will not only give you more living/entertaining space but it will also add value.
