Services in Kensington
We've been working across Kensington and the surrounding W8 area for years, serving both landlords managing rental portfolios and homeowners looking to improve their properties.
From careful repaints in period mansion blocks near Holland Park, to full kitchen renovations in Kensington's garden flat conversions — we understand the standard that properties here require and we consistently deliver it.
Kensington's mix of Victorian terraces, modern developments, and HMO properties means we handle a wide range of work. No job is too routine and none is too complex.
Kensington has some of the highest conservation area coverage in London, and a high proportion of its stucco-fronted terraces are also individually listed. Both affect what you're allowed to change on the outside of a property, sometimes down to the exact colour of the render. Check your specific address on our conservation areas map before finalising any exterior design.

Enquiry. Let us know what you're planning — we'll respond the same day, and flag early on if listed building status is likely to affect your project.
-
Site visit. Given how much of Kensington sits within listed buildings or conservation areas, we always visit in person before quoting anything beyond a simple repaint.
-
Fixed quote. A clear, fixed price, with any consent process explained upfront so there are no surprises about timeline later.
-
The work. We turn up on schedule and keep you updated throughout, particularly important where a project involves coordination with a freeholder or fellow leaseholders around a garden square.

Final touches and handover. We walk the finished job with you, and if anything isn't right, we come back and fix it at no charge. Weekend and bank holiday availability is standard here too.

KENSINGTON • W8
Property maintenance
across Kensington.
Kensington attracts some of London's most discerning tenants and buyers. Properties in W8 and W14 — from the grand houses on Phillimore Gardens to the flat conversions near Earl's Court and the period buildings around Holland Park — hold significant value, and that value is protected by maintaining them properly.
Astralis works regularly across Kensington, South Kensington, and into the West Kensington and Earl's Court borders. Bathroom renovation and tiling are our most common services in this area — older Kensington properties frequently need full bathroom refits with quality fixtures and precise floor and wall tiling. We also carry out flooring installation across the area, particularly engineered wood and LVT in living spaces and hallways. High-quality finishes for landlords and homeowners who expect the standard to match the postcode.
If you manage rental property in Kensington, you'll know that void periods are costly and reliable contractors are rare. We provide fast, fixed-price quotes for quick post tenancy turnarounds — so you spend less time chasing and more time managing your portfolio.
Landlords in Kensington
HMOs in Kensington tend to be in the larger converted townhouses rather than the smaller garden square flats, and licensing requirements here are taken seriously given the borough's overall housing standards. Landlords managing these properties need fire safety compliance, well-maintained communal areas, and fast turnarounds on individual rooms without disrupting the rest of the building. We work around occupied HMOs regularly and prioritise getting rooms back into use quickly.
HMOs in Kensington
Whether you're refreshing a Victorian terrace or updating a flat, we bring the same level of care and professionalism to homeowner projects as we do to commercial landlord work. We treat your home like it's our own.

A standard refit runs 3-4 weeks; anything needing listed building consent adds four to eight weeks before work can start, sometimes longer.
What areas do you cover around Kensington?
W8, plus neighbouring W11 and SW7.
How fast can you start a job in Kensington?
Straightforward work can often start within a a week; anything needing consent depends on the council's decision timeline first.
Does listed status affect interior decorating?
Generally not for a straightforward repaint — it's exterior appearance and original architectural features that need the most care here.
