Property refurbishment and project management in Liverpool
From a tired single let to a full conversion, we plan the work, bring in the right trades and see it through to handover.

We take on full refurbishments, kitchens and bathrooms, extensions, conversions, compliance and energy upgrades and refreshes between tenancies, with the specification and costs agreed in writing before work starts and vetted local trades managed through to handover.

Built for rental property
We're landlords ourselves, so we refurbish with letting in mind: durable finishes, layouts tenants want, and every certificate in place when the work is signed off. If you'd like us to let and manage the property afterwards, we can take it straight on.
Privately rented homes in England are set to need an EPC rating of C by 1 October 2030, with a cost cap of £10,000 per property. Planning upgrades alongside other work now usually costs less than doing them separately later.
One point of contact
You deal with us, not a list of trades. We survey the property, agree the specification and budget with you, book and coordinate our network of local tradespeople, keep you updated as the work goes on and sign it off at the end.

Questions landlords and investors ask
How much does it cost to refurbish a rental property in Liverpool?
It depends on the size and condition of the property and the finish you want. After a survey we agree a specification and give you the costs in writing before work begins, so there are no surprises.
Do I need a project manager for a renovation?
Not always, but on anything bigger than a single room it saves time and money. A project manager sets the specification, books trades in the right order, checks the quality and keeps the budget on track. That's what we do on our own properties.
How long does a property refurbishment take?
A refresh between tenancies can take a week or two; a full refurbishment or conversion takes longer, especially if planning or building control is involved. We give you a programme with the specification.
What EPC rating will rental properties need by 2030?
The government has confirmed that privately rented homes in England will need to meet EPC C by 1 October 2030, subject to Parliament, with a cost cap of £10,000 per property and some exemptions. We can plan the upgrades as part of a wider refurbishment.
How do I find reliable builders in Liverpool?
Ask to see finished work, get a written specification and quote, check insurance and references, and pay in stages against completed work rather than up front. We manage a network of local trades we use on our own homes.
Can you work on a property while tenants are living there?
Often, yes, for smaller jobs. We agree access with the tenants in advance and keep disruption to a minimum. Bigger work is best planned between tenancies.
