Single rooms to whole properties — one team manages everything.
The service
House refurbishments across East London
Whether you have just bought a property that needs modernising, are refreshing a rental between tenancies, or want to transform your existing home room by room, Chenko Builders manages full and partial house refurbishments across East London. We work regularly in Hackney, Stratford, Ilford, Canary Wharf, Greenwich, Poplar, Romford and Walthamstow, handling everything from herringbone oak flooring and wall panelling through to electrical rewiring, bathroom and kitchen refreshes, and full redecorations. You deal with one person — Alex — throughout the project, which means no coordinating between trades, no gaps in the schedule and no confusion about who is responsible for what. Whether your refurbishment is a single living room or a full four-bedroom property, we produce an itemised written quote covering every element and agree a realistic programme before we start.
