Full renovations are what we do best — but we cover the whole project, indoors and out. Whatever you're planning, you deal with one team that sees it through to a clean, finished result.

Primary service

Renovations

Renovations are the heart of what we do. We take on full refurbishments and single-room transformations alike — managing the structural work, plastering, flooring, kitchens, bathrooms, tiling and decorating, so you're not left juggling a string of separate trades. From the first wall coming down to the final coat of paint, it's one team, one point of contact, and a finish we're proud to put our name to.

Why choose Zorlu

What our clients say keeps them coming back.

Workmanship

We treat every job — a single bathroom or a whole-house renovation — as if it were our own home. Quality materials, careful prep and a clean, considered finish are the standard, not an upsell. The detail is what you'll still be glad of in ten years.

Reliability

When we say we'll be there, we're there. We turn up when we said we would, keep to the dates we agreed, and see your project through with the same team from first day to last — no disappearing halfway through to start the next job.

Tidy finish

We work around your home with dust sheets down, tools tidied away and a clean-up at the end of each day. You're often still living there while we work, and we never forget it — most clients tell us the tidiness is what stuck with them.

Communication

You'll have one point of contact from quote to completion. We keep you in the loop at every stage, explain the options in plain English, and you'll always know what's happening next — no chasing for an update.

On budget

You get a clear, fixed quote before we start, and we stick to it. If anything unexpected does come up, we talk it through and agree it with you first — so the final figure is the one we shook hands on.

Fully insured

We carry full public liability insurance and work to current building and safety standards. We're happy to show our cover and any relevant certification before you commit — so you can get on with life knowing the job's in safe hands.

Common questions

Answers before you ask.

The questions we're asked most often. If yours isn't here, just give us a ring — we're happy to talk it through.

How quickly can you start?
It depends on the size of the job and how booked up we are, but we'll always give you an honest timescale up front rather than a vague promise. Smaller jobs can often start within a few weeks; larger renovations and extensions are usually booked further ahead. Either way, we'll come out to quote as soon as we can — normally within a week of you getting in touch.
Do you handle planning permission and building regulations?
Yes. For extensions and structural work we'll guide you through what's needed and coordinate with building control, and where drawings or a structural engineer are required we'll work alongside them. Plenty of smaller jobs fall under permitted development — and we'll always tell you honestly when something needs approval before we start.
What guarantee do you offer on your work?
If something isn't right, we come back and put it right — that's how we keep our reviews. Anything we fit, from kitchen units to fixtures, also carries the manufacturer's own warranty, and we'll set out in writing with your quote exactly what's covered on your job.
Do you take a deposit?
For most jobs we take a deposit to cover initial materials, then work to a simple staged-payment schedule agreed with you before we start — so you always know what's due and when. There are no hidden costs, and the final payment isn't due until you're happy with the work.
Can we see past projects or speak to previous clients?
Absolutely. There's a selection of recent work in the gallery above, and we're happy to put you in touch with previous customers or arrange to show you a finished project nearby. We'd far rather you felt completely confident before committing.
Do you give fixed quotes or estimates?
Wherever possible we give you a clear, fixed written quote rather than a rough estimate, so you know the price before any work begins. If we ever uncover something unexpected once work starts — the kind of thing no one could see beforehand — we'll stop, explain it, and agree any change with you before going ahead. No surprises on the final bill.
