Expert full home renovation services in Clapham, SW4. Trusted by homeowners across London Borough of Lambeth.
A full renovation takes a Clapham terrace from a warren of small, cut off rooms to a home that flows, and it does that while keeping the period features that make these houses worth having. We have the trades and the experience to get it done well and without endless drama.
A whole house job with us covers everything. On the structure we open up the ground floor, build into the side return and rear and convert the loft. On the services we rewire, replumb and put in new heating. On the finish we bring back the period detail, fit new kitchens and bathrooms, lay new floors and decorate throughout to one clear scheme.
The streets around Clapham Common, Abbeville Village and Nightingale Lane have terraces at every stage, from untouched originals to houses already done top to bottom. We know what works in them and how to get the most space and value out of the shell. Our design team plans layouts to suit how people actually live here. A sociable open plan ground floor, a proper main bedroom suite and family bathrooms that are built to last.
The whole job runs through one point of contact. Your project manager coordinates the trades, sorts the approvals and keeps things on programme and on budget from first fix through to the final snag.
Clapham's Victorian terraces stay popular with families moving up from flats and smaller places. Plenty come to market needing a full renovation, and buyers will often take one on so they can do the whole thing to suit themselves rather than buy something already finished.
The strong local market means renovation money comes back through value, and with the transport, the schools and the green space, Clapham is somewhere families tend to settle for the long haul. That makes a thorough renovation well worth doing.
“We bought a bit of a wreck near Abbeville Village and SOM turned it into the family home we always wanted. Open plan kitchen, four bedrooms, two lovely bathrooms and every Victorian detail brought back. Six months start to finish and barely a hiccup.”

Three simple steps to your new full home renovation in Clapham.
We survey the property from top to bottom, go through every room with you, and put together a phased plan that fits your budget.
You get a room by room quote covering all the trades, the materials and a realistic timeline with clear milestones.
Our multi trade team works through the job phase by phase, from first fix to finishing, with regular updates and quality checks along the way.
Usually, buying a house that needs work and doing a full renovation comes out cheaper than buying one already finished to the same standard. It also lets you set out every part of the house exactly how you want it.
Most internal work needs no planning permission. Extensions and loft conversions may need sign off from Lambeth Council, and you need party wall agreements where the work touches a shared wall. We handle all of the applications and agreements.
Yes, and it is one of the things we are known for. We take features off carefully and protect them during the strip out, restore them as the job goes on, and remake anything that has been lost. You end up with a house that reads as properly Victorian and thoroughly up to date.
