Whether you’ve just purchased a tired property in need of complete modernisation, or you’ve lived in your home for years and it’s time to bring it up to date, a house refurbishment is one of the most transformative investments you can make. At Braha Ltd, we deliver full and partial house refurbishments across South West London — managing every aspect of the project with the same level of care and rigour whether we’re refreshing a single room or undertaking a complete floor-to-ceiling transformation.
We’re based in SW17 Tooting and work regularly across Wimbledon, Putney, Balham, Wandsworth, Earlsfield, and the wider SW postcode belt. Over more than two decades of working in South West London’s residential market, we’ve refurbished a wide variety of property types — Victorian and Edwardian terraces, 1930s semis, post-war flats, and modern new-builds — and we understand the particular character and challenges that each one presents.

FAQs — House Refurbishment SW London
How long does a house refurbishment take?
Timelines vary with scope. A partial refurbishment of a single floor typically takes 4–8 weeks. A full house refurbishment, particularly one involving structural changes, can take 3–6 months. We provide a detailed programme of works at the outset so you can plan around the project.
Can I stay in the property during a refurbishment?
For partial refurbishments, many clients remain in their homes throughout. For full refurbishments — particularly those involving electrical rewiring, major plumbing works, or structural alterations — it's generally more comfortable and practical to arrange temporary accommodation for part or all of the works. We advise on this at the planning stage.
Do you manage all the trades, or do we need to hire specialists separately?
We manage all trades in-house. Braha Ltd employs or directly manages qualified specialists across all the key disciplines — structural, plumbing, electrical, plastering, tiling, flooring, and decoration. You deal with one company throughout, which simplifies communication and accountability considerably.
Do you work on flats and apartments as well as houses?
Yes. We regularly carry out refurbishments in flats and apartments across SW London, including leasehold properties where works may need to be approved by a managing agent or freeholder. We're experienced in navigating these requirements and can advise on what approvals you may need.
