Properties in need of renovation

Whether you want to make your mark on a house, or even make your millions in property development, you're not alone.

This is where the serious work and financial commitment really kicks in. As well as shelling out for a new kitchen (maybe a simple appliance repair would do the trick) and bathroom, you're likely to discover less desirable original features such as two-pin plug sockets and lead pipes. Add to that inefficient or non-existent heating systems, gas boiler and you could easily find yourself shelling out £20,000 just to make your new home habitable. These certainly are not projects for the faint hearted and you would need home improvement quotes before letting yourself into this venture. Look for local builders in London, such as builders in Leyton or builders in Walthamstow.
