Types of renovation we handle in SW6
The level of work a property needs depends on its condition and how soon it needs to be back on the market.
• Full flat refurbishments — stripping and rebuilding bathrooms and kitchens, new flooring throughout, full repaint. Typical for landlords between long-term tenancies or homeowners buying to renovate.
• Cosmetic refreshes — repaint, new flooring, maybe a bathroom refresh. Common for between-tenancy turnarounds where the layout is fine but everything needs freshening up.
• Specific room renovations — kitchen or bathroom only, while the rest of the flat stays untouched.
Bathroom restoration is one of our most frequent requests in Fulham — older SW6 properties often have dated bathrooms that need a full refit to compete in the current rental market.
Most of our work here is full restoration: new suite, fresh tiling, proper waterproofing, and a finish that looks current rather than stuck in whatever decade the property was last touched.
Typical costs for bathroom renovation:
• Refurbishment (tiling, fittings replaced, silicone, waterproof paint) - £2,100 - £5,600
• Renovation (tiling, new toilet appliances, silicone and waterproof paint) - £2,500 - £8,250
We also carry out tiling and flooring installation across the area, replacing worn carpet and laminate with new, high-end LVT or engineered wood.
"Bathroom restoration is the single biggest value driver in older Fulham properties — it's usually the room that dates a flat the most and matters most to prospective tenants."

Why landlords in Fulham use Astralis
Fulham's rental market is driven by strong demand from young professionals and families, with properties across SW6 and SW10 regularly changing tenants. Landlords here need work done quickly and to a high standard — a slow turnaround costs money, and a poor finish costs tenants. We work regularly across Fulham, from the houses near Eel Brook Common and Parsons Green to the riverside flats along the Fulham Road and into Sands End and Hurlingham.
HMO Refurbishment in Fulham
Fulham has a strong concentration of HMOs, particularly around Fulham Broadway and the streets near Parsons Green, where shared houses attract young professionals working in West and Central London. Refurbishing an HMO here comes with different priorities to a standard flat — communal kitchens and bathrooms see far more daily use, turnover between tenants tends to be higher, and the finish needs to hold up to several people living in the space rather than one household.
We approach HMO refurbishment with that in mind:
-
Tougher finishes in shared spaces — flooring and surfaces in communal kitchens and bathrooms built to withstand daily use from several tenants, not just one
-
Communal areas prioritised first — the kitchen, hallway, and bathroom are what every tenant sees and judges the property by, so these get the most attention
-
Fast turnaround between tenancies — HMOs change tenants more often, so we work to timelines that match that pace rather than a standard single-let schedule
If you manage an HMO in Fulham and need refurbishment work between tenant turnovers, we understand the faster pace and higher wear this type of property demands.
Can I renovate with tenants in the property?
Yes — we work on occupied properties regularly. It requires a different approach but it's entirely manageable for most types of work.
For painting and decorating we typically work room by room so tenants can still use the rest of the flat. For bathroom or kitchen renovation on an occupied property we agree a clear schedule upfront — the tenant knows exactly which days the room is out of use, so they can prepare beforehand.
What works well with tenants in:
-
Painting and decorating — room by room, minimal disruption
-
Flooring — one area at a time, usually done within a day per room
-
Patch repairs and minor works — same day, in and out
-
Bathroom renovation — manageable if the property has more than one bathroom, which is common in Hampstead
What's better done on a vacant property: full kitchen renovation, full flat refurbishment, any structural work. If your tenant is cooperative and you need to work around them, talk to us — we'll give you an honest answer about whether it's feasible before we quote.

FAQ
Common questions
about Fulham.
Can you work with tenants still in the property?
Yes — for painting, flooring, and minor works this is straightforward. We work room by room to minimise disruption. For full bathroom or kitchen renovation on an occupied property we agree a clear schedule with the tenant upfront and stick to it.
What's the cheapest way to improve a Fulham flat before selling/letting?
A 2-room repaint — typically a living room and bedroom — costs a few hundred pounds and makes an immediate visual difference. It's the fastest, cheapest way to present a property well without a larger investment.
Do you work weekends?
Yes. We're flexible around what works for you - weekends and bank holidays included.
Do I need to be in Fulham for the work to happen?
Not at all. Many of our Fulham clients hand over keys at the start and collect them at the end. You'll get daily photo updates throughout so you always know what's happening without needing to visit the site.
Which postcodes do you operate in in Fulham?
We operate across the entire area of Fulham, covering SW6, SW10, W14 as well as SW15. If your one isn't listed - we still work there. Just contact us!
