Whole House
A whole house renovation brings the kitchen, bathrooms and connecting rooms into one coordinated project. Cooksey Renovation agrees the scope at a site visit, with Lance as your main contact. Your written quotation sets out the work, exclusions and expected timescales.
01
Plan the kitchen, bathrooms and connecting rooms with a layout shaped around how you use the house.
02
Lance coordinates required trades, keeping work in sequence so each stage is ready for the one that follows.
03
Agree the rooms, work and exclusions in writing before work starts, with timescales in your quote.
Agreed Scope
The scope can bring several stages together into one coordinated project. Your quotation clearly confirms the rooms, work and finishes included in the project.
Remove the old fittings and finishes named in the agreed scope, then prepare the rooms for the next stage. The quotation sets out which areas are included and how far the strip-out goes, so the work starts with a clear plan.
Where agreed, the renovation can include internal layout changes and coordinated plumbing or electrical work. Structural changes follow the required design and approval information, with the relevant trades brought in at the right stage.
Kitchen and bathroom work is planned alongside the rest of the house, from room preparation and services through to fitting. The scope, fixtures and finish choices are agreed so these rooms fit into the wider renovation programme.
Bring the agreed rooms through to the finishing stage with plastering, joinery and flooring as required. Making good is included where specified, with the quotation stating the finish to be achieved and any decorating work that is excluded.
At the site visit, we agree the rooms, priorities and any layout changes. We also discuss whether you can stay in the property, so the quotation reflects how the work needs to run.
Before We Start
Full house renovation cost and timing depend on room condition, the agreed specification and whether the property stays occupied.
The price follows the rooms, condition and finish choices agreed at a site visit. Scope changes or issues uncovered during strip-out are discussed before additional work proceeds.
An empty property may allow more continuous work. If you stay, rooms and services may need to remain usable, which changes the sequence. Expected timescales are set out after the site visit.
Agree the rooms, layout changes and any approval requirements before work starts. The programme then sequences the required trades, followed by fitting and finishes.
Project Evidence
Cooksey’s documented full house renovation brought layout changes, kitchen and bathroom work, and room preparation into one project. These photographs show the type of work and finishes undertaken.
Our Process
Lance starts with a site visit to agree rooms, priorities and how you will use the house during the work. The written quotation sets out the scope and expected timescales. Agreed strip-out and layout changes come first, followed by the required trades, kitchen and bathroom fitting, and finishes. Lance remains your main contact, keeps you updated and reviews the completed work with you.
Helpful Answers
Understand what a full renovation includes, what a strip-out involves and how staying in the house or approval requirements can affect the plan before the renovation work begins on site.
Sometimes. It depends on which rooms and services need to close during the work. We discuss staying or living elsewhere at the site visit, before the quotation and programme are agreed.
Structural changes and some plumbing or electrical work can need building regulations approval. Check the requirements for the agreed scope before work starts. Read how construction work on a home is managed before a start date is set.
Only the fittings, finishes and surfaces named in the quotation. Taking a property back to brick is included only where specifically agreed and priced. The extent of removal is settled before work starts.
A full house renovation covers the agreed rooms and connecting spaces as one project. Kitchens and bathrooms can form part of that scope. A single-room refurbishment is a smaller job.

From initial consultation to finished job the Cooksey were brilliant. Always looking on time, worked a full day, cleaned up after themselves and made sure we were completely happy with the work. Very friendly and professional. Covered every aspect of the installation of a new bathroom from liasing with suppliers to the electrics , plastering and tiling. Highly recommendedPosted on Google![]()

We cannot recommend Lance and the team enough. From beginning to end him and the team were professional, knowledgeable and communicative. Lance did multiple visits to us before starting work to ensure the best end result, our bathroom was a difficult refurbishment to say the least, but the final result is a testament to Lance and the teams skill and determination. When the work was being completed they were clean and tidy, often worked incredibly long days and kept me informed on any changes or challenges. He worked with us to keep to our budget updated us on any additional material charges. My neighbour even commented on how friendly and polite they all were. I have already recommended Lance to multiple people but will also have them back for any other renovation we need completing in the future. I wouldn't go with anyone else now.Posted on Google![]()

Recently had our Bathroom renovated by Cooksey Renovation; they did a fantastic job throughout and transformed our bathroom! The quality of their work is to a very high standard. They arrived on the agreed date to commence the renovation, were on time every morning, cleaned up after them every evening, and were pleasant and communicative throughout. I can’t recommend this company highly enough and would certainly use them again or recommend them to friends and family.Posted on Google![]()

Cooksey renovations and the team did an amazing job with our new kitchen and flooring. The job needed blocking up doors, windows and a fair bit of plastering. They were all really tidy and cleaned up after each day before they left. I'm so happy with the work they have done. Thank you!Posted on Google![]()

I cannot recommend Lance and his team enough! They have renovated both my bathroom and en-suite as well as repairing and replastering my living room ceiling following existing water damage. When I moved into my house, I knew there was gonna be a lot of work to do following previous leaks in the en suite and previous bad workmanship. All the team were professional, trustworthy and skilled in how they transformed my house. They kept everything clean and tidy (I even caught them hoovering my doorstep at one stage!) and made the house useable in between their working days. I had a very specific vision and they were able to make my dreams come to life and I’m so pleased with the end result. They ripped out my old suites, replaced rotten floor boards, rebuilt damaged walls and install all new paperwork. Nothing was too much trouble and they were also the most competitive quote I received. I have a kitchen and artexed ceilings to be renovated in the new year and there is no one else I would consider using. Thanks guys! I really love what you’ve done!Posted on Google![]()
