The borough and town of Crawley is perhaps best known for its proximity to Gatwick Airport, which lies on its border – but it’s a well established market town in its own right with a population of over 110,000. Despite its small stature (Crawley covers an area of about 17 square miles), there’s a good variety of property available in Crawley and its seen prices increase in line with demand over the last few years. 
Homeowners in Crawley are progressively redeveloping their homes and being an ambitious bunch, we’re seeing more than ever of them opt for a full architectural renovation. Refresh Renovations, unlike many redevelopment companies, offer architectural services alongside their refurbishment offerings – making them the top choice throughout Crawley and further afield.

What types of architectural renovations do Refresh offer?

Refresh’s architectural services include renovation project management throughout: 
- Side return extensions
- Rear house extensions
- Loft conversions
- Garage conversions
- Kitchen extensions
- Basement extensions

What are the current architectural renovation trends in Crawley? 

In recent years, we’ve seen an influx of homeowners choosing to better utilise their unused or underused spaces with demand rising for loft conversions, garage conversions and basement extensions – but as ever, kitchen extensions remain popular for large open-plan kitchen-diner facilities. 

How much do architectural renovations cost?

The scope of architectural renovations varies hugely, as do their costs. Generally speaking, home extensions form the most expensive renovations and come in around £1,200 - £2,000 per square metre or new space. Architects need to be involved in smaller scope jobs as well as major ones, and have experience in all property shapes, sizes and types. 

Why choose Refresh for architectural renovations?

The Refresh approach is comprehensive – managing your renovation project from end-to-end with a dedicated Project Consultant managing all aspects for a full overview, taking the hassle and effort out of the homeowners’ hands. This management method has won us awards worldwide and continues to ensure homeowners are happy with their renovations – and usually completely delighted!

Will I need planning permission for my architectural renovation? 

There are various renovations that can be completed under stipulated Permitted Development Rights, but such regulations don’t work in all instances. Refresh will be able to advise you on what is and isn’t required for external administration permissions, and where planning permission is required, the Project Consultant will manage this process as part of the overall management. Refresh’s ongoing professional relationship with the local authority in Crawley helps position their products with the best possible chances for success.
