01VILLA RENOVATION
Finishes are what a renovation shows; services are what it protects. In many villas the pipes and cables behind the walls are as old as the house, and a renovation that leaves them in place risks damage to brand-new finishes.

Tell us the villa's age and any problems you have noticed. We match you with contractors who inspect and quote.
Request a services assessmentOr message us on WhatsAppDiscoloured water, low pressure, repeated leaks, breakers that trip under normal use, warm sockets, and a distribution board without modern protection are all signs. An electrician and plumber can test and inspect before the renovation is designed, and their findings belong in the scope from the start.
Replumbing usually means new supply pipes from the tank or manifold to every fixture, often with isolation valves for each bathroom and the kitchen, and checking drainage for blockages and damage. Rewiring means new circuits, a new distribution board and adequate capacity for modern appliances and air conditioning. Significant increases in load may need an assessment with the utility.
Services are renewed at first fix, before screeds, plaster and ceilings close. Chasing new routes through finished walls is the expensive alternative. Agree routes and positions early, especially for sockets, lighting and any future needs such as a car charger.
