We work with every kind of property—from period homes to modern UK apartment refurbishments and even commercial spaces.

Timelines vary by scope, but as a guide: most home refurbishments take around 4–8 weeks, while larger full-house renovations typically run 3–8 months depending on scale, structural works, permissions, and material lead times. Furniture packages (not bespoke interior design) can usually be installed within 24–48 hours of order confirmation, subject to stock availability and building/access arrangements . All timings are indicative and confirmed after a site visit/survey, detailed scope, and any required third-party approvals; lead times may extend for long-lead items, custom joinery, or access restrictions.

Absolutely. Our turnkey furnishing service keeps your property move-in ready, helping you cut down on empty rental periods and attract quality tenants. Plus, you can customise the furniture packages to suit your style, colour scheme, or specific needs.

We provide services across London, the M25 region, and all across the UK* (depending on scope). For a detailed breakdown of our service areas, please get in touch with our team.
