Living Room Renovation London, Living Room Refurbishment
Renovating your living room is one of the most effective ways to improve comfort, layout, and the overall feel of your home. Home Renovation Services London provides professional living room renovation services in London, upgrading tired lounges into bright, practical, and modern spaces. We manage the full scope, including layout improvements, knock-throughs for open-plan living where required, bespoke media walls, alcove joinery, plastering, flooring, lighting upgrades, and high-quality decoration, so the finished room looks sharp and works properly for everyday life.
A complete living room refurbishment often involves more than paint and flooring. Where needed, we coordinate structural calculations for load-bearing wall removals, manage approvals for leasehold properties, and upgrade electrics for modern lighting and media setups. Whether you are restoring a Victorian reception room with cornice repairs or modernising a contemporary lounge with clean lines, improved storage, and better lighting, we deliver a finished living space that feels balanced, welcoming, and built around how you use the room.

A typical living room renovation starts with a clear plan for layout, lighting, and finishes. Where structural changes are included, we begin with the correct temporary supports and complete knock-throughs or beam installations before first-fix services. We then strip out old finishes where required, repair walls and ceilings, and prepare the space for plastering, joinery, and flooring. We also keep disruption down by protecting floors and containing dust in work areas.
Once the room is structurally ready, we complete first-fix electrics for lighting and media points, then move into plastering and surface preparation. Second-fix electrics, media wall and alcove joinery, and flooring installation are then completed before final decoration. We finish with snagging, tidy detailing, and a full clean so the lounge is ready to use and looks finished properly.
Our Living Room Renovation Process
Survey, Layout & Preparation
We assess the room, agree the layout and finish level, plan lighting and media positions, and confirm any structural requirements before work starts.
Structural Works & First-Fix Services
Where required, we complete knock-throughs and beam installations, then run first-fix electrics for lighting, sockets, and media points, plus any heating adjustments.
Joinery, Finishing & Decoration
We complete plastering and wall prep, fit media walls and alcove units where specified, install flooring, finish electrics, and complete decoration with snagging and handover.
Frequently asked questions
In most cases, internal renovations like converting or remodeling your living room do not require planning permission. However, if you live in a listed building, conservation area, or if you plan to build an external lightwell or make major changes to the front facade, you may need planning permission or listed building consent. We can assist in assessing your project requirements.
A media wall is a custom-built stud structure designed to house a flush-fit television, integrated soundbars, concealed cabling, storage alcoves, and often a modern electric fireplace. Yes, we design and construct bespoke media walls tailored to your living room size, layout, and storage requirements.
A standard living room refurbishment involving plastering, decorating, and new flooring typically takes a few weeks to complete. Projects that require structural wall removals, bespoke media walls, acoustic soundproofing, or advanced lighting configurations can take a bit longer. A consultation is required to determine the exact period of time based on the client’s unique needs.
Yes, we can install high-performance acoustic insulation systems on party walls and ceilings. This typically involves building independent timber stud frames, packing them with acoustic mineral wool, and adding resilient bars and soundboard plasterboards to significantly reduce sound transmission between properties.
