FAQs
Renovations in Maidstone: FAQs
Do you provide renovations across all of Maidstone?
Yes, we cover the ME14 and ME15 and ME16 postcode areas in full, including Allington, Barming, Loose, Penenden Heath, Tovil, Weavering, Bearsted.
Can you renovate a property in phases while we live in it?
Often yes, particularly where the property can be divided into workable zones. We discuss phasing options and the level of disruption at the planning stage so you can make an informed decision.
What happens if you find problems once walls are opened up?
We flag any concealed issues, such as damp or structural decay, as soon as they are found, explain the implications, and agree a priced way forward with you before proceeding — this is why provisional sums are built into most renovation quotations.
Does flood risk from the River Medway affect extensions in Maidstone?
For properties in flood risk areas, extension design may need to take flood resilience into account, and a flood risk assessment can be required as part of a planning application. We check the Environment Agency flood mapping for your property during feasibility.
