Whole house renovation and kitchen fitting in Cambridge
Cambridge is the furthest point we travel to, so we take on fewer but larger projects here, usually a full kitchen or a whole house programme.
Because it is a longer run for us, we plan Cambridge jobs more tightly than local ones. Materials are ordered and staged in one delivery rather than several, and the programme is written to keep the team on site for continuous blocks rather than half days.
The city's brick terraces bring the usual period challenges: floors that fall away from the chimney breast, chimney flues that still need ventilating, and narrow hallways that decide what size of unit can physically get to the back of the house. We measure access routes at survey, not on delivery day.
Residents' parking and controlled zones are checked before quoting, and any permit cost appears in your quote rather than appearing later.
A terrace renovation off Mill Road
Kitchen, bathroom, hallway flooring and full redecoration across three floors. The narrow hallway meant the tall units had to be carried through the rear garden access, which we identified at survey and priced accordingly.
Twenty two working days in two continuous blocks, with the family away for the first and living upstairs for the second.
Work we are asked for most in Cambridge
- Whole house renovation programmes run in continuous blocks

Questions from Cambridge clients
- Do you charge extra to travel to Cambridge?
- There is no separate travel charge, but we concentrate on larger projects here so the programme justifies the distance. Small single room jobs are usually better served by a Cambridge based fitter.
- How do you handle narrow terrace access?
- We measure the full access route at survey, including doorways, turns and stair widths, then check it against the unit sizes before anything is ordered.
- Can you run a whole house project in phases?
- Yes, though for Cambridge we prefer two or three continuous blocks rather than many short visits, which keeps the cost and the programme down.
- Who deals with parking permits?
- We do. Permit or bay suspension costs are checked before quoting and shown as their own line so you know exactly what you are paying for.
