What Marylebone homeowners ask us.
How much does a house renovation cost in Marylebone in 2026?

Do I need planning permission for a Marylebone renovation?
Usually no — most internal renovations only need building regulations approval. Marylebone Conservation Area covers the bulk of W1 north of Oxford Street. Many properties are listed or estate-managed with their own design covenants. If you're in a conservation area or your property is listed, listed-building consent may be needed for layout changes, sash-window replacement or chimney works. We check the specific address before quoting.
What's the typical Marylebone housing stock for refurbishments?
Georgian and Victorian terraces (estate-owned in many cases), plus large mansion blocks along Marylebone Road and Baker Street. On this kind of housing in W1, whole-house refurbishments most commonly involve new layout (often opening up the ground floor), full rewire, new heating, new kitchen and bathrooms, and finishes throughout. Period restoration is more common on listed properties and conservation-area frontages.
How long does a Marylebone renovation take?
Allow 4–10 weeks for design and procurement, then 6–10 weeks on site for a kitchen, 3–5 weeks for a bathroom, 4–8 months for a whole-house refurb, and 8–14 months for period restoration. City of Westminster processes building control approvals in parallel with construction.
Can I live in the house during a Marylebone renovation?
Single-room or single-bathroom: usually yes. Whole-house refurb: almost always no — dust, services downtime and security make it impractical. Most Marylebone clients rent locally for 3–6 months during the works. We coordinate the programme with break clauses so you're not paying double rent at the end.
