Renovating older and period properties

Older buildings hide surprises. As an appointed contractor for English Heritage and Natural England, we're used to finding them and putting them right with methods that suit the building.

Questions

What people ask

Based in Faversham, working across Kent.

How much does a house renovation cost?

It depends on the size of the job, the materials and what's already there, and material prices move too often for a fixed list to stay honest. Tell us what you're planning and we'll come back with a quote for your job.

Can we live in the house while you renovate?

Often, depending on how much of the house is being worked on at once. We talk through how the job will be staged when we quote.

What happens if you find problems behind the walls?

We tell you straight away, explain the options and quote the extra work before anything goes ahead. Because we're a full building firm, the same team can sort it.

Do you renovate period and listed homes?

Yes. Risdon is an appointed contractor for English Heritage and Natural England, and older properties are a large part of our work.

What warranty do I get?

It depends on the job and the materials, so there isn't one blanket figure. Your quote sets out exactly what's covered for your project before you agree to anything.

Which parts of Kent do you cover?

We are based at Abbots Hill near Faversham and work across Kent. If you are not sure we cover you, ask and we will tell you straight.
