House Refurbishment & Building
Home refurbishment with Jet Property
Taking on an old property is an exciting time for those creating their dream home. However, knowing how to go about doing it up will be the real challenge. The key to any refurbishment is for the client to determine and understand the work that they want. This is called creating a project brief and should be ready for when the contractors come on site. That way they can price or start work and they are all singing from the same hymn sheet. Without a good brief, developers can end up altering the planned layout and work can become costly to the client.
With any refurbishment work we undertake, one of our surveyors will call to the property to chat and discuss the project brief. At Jet Property Development we use our vast combined experience to give valuable guidance when planning the project. We understand the importance of placing the works in the correct sequence. As we cover all aspects of building works from rewiring and plumbing to decorating, we not only help reduce the stress for clients having to obtain many quotes but also having to organise various trades.
- We regularly carry out investment property refurbishments tailored to the rental market, but also many one-off builds. We can not only suit your need but also your budget.
- Looking for inspiration? then contact us today and one of our friendly team can help you achieve the wow factor at your property.
Design & Planning
Jet Property Development will prepare architectural designs and subsequent drawings for planning applications. Our staff will take clients all the way through to the completion stage of their project. Jet Property Development will submit applications to building control while liaising with them as the project moves forward, finally to the end. We are happy to work independently or with the client’s architects and other designers to help the customer get through the planning stage.
Our Services
Kitchen & Bathroom Refits
Whilst we specialise in damp proofing, we offer the full house service. With kitchen and bathroom refurbishments the key is the layout. Understanding the client’s needs is key. Through our many years of kitchen and bathroom installations we know the questions to ask as there are many aspects that we require answers to, in order to be able to provide the design.
We will provide brochures to suit your budget and provide plans and layouts. Often these areas have walls removed or doorways altered, again this is not a problem for our team.
Our structural engineer can provide calculations, even electrical and Jet Property Development deals with plumbing alterations. Finally, wall and floor tiling complete the refurbishment and again we can provide a colour palette to complement the chosen units. You are in safe in hands for your housing needs.
Block Paving
Patio
Extra living space to your home, especially in the summer months when barbecues and outdoor activities are in high demand. But often gardens are neglected, and patios can become unsightly grey patches of ground, which can force even the most enthusiastic of outdoor people to stay inside.
At Jet Property Development we have an expert team who are specialists in the installation of colourful and tidy block paved patios. If you wish to totally transform your dilapidated, dull, grey concrete patio, or just wish to inject some life and colour into your garden, then we can offer you a patio block paving service which will significantly increase the aesthetics of your outdoor space. We can even blend drain covers into the block paving work we carry out, so that every part of your new block paved patio maintains an extremely high finish and is all coordinated.
Driveways & Pathways
Driveways and pathways are the first thing people notice when walking to the front door of a house, and a drive which doesn’t appear tidy and maintained can have a negative effect on the whole perception of a house. Constant use of driveways and pathways can cause the material to deteriorate and make your property appear aged, even if your house is in relatively good condition.
Jet Property Development offer affordable block paved driveways and pathways which will significantly increase the overall appearance of your property. It will allow a sturdier basis for, not only your parked vehicle, but also for pedestrians, meaning increased safety and less chance of slipping or tripping over loose tarmac.
At Jet Property Development, we can successfully block pave any driveway or pathway no matter what the width or length, and can complete the work at your convenience so your daily activities are not disrupted by our friendly block paving team. We source all of our stone material from leading manufacturers, making us confident that we can provide you with a quality material to guarantee the quality finish that we produce in our block paving.
Our team of block pavers have countless satisfied customers and have fully mastered the art of successful block paving – which not only leaves you with a great looking drive, path or patio, but also leaves you with a lasting result which will leave you proud of your investment.
Roofing & Fascias
Roofing
Roofs are an essential feature of any building because they provide protection against anything that may fall from the sky – be it rain, hail or even general debris – so it is vital that roofing slates and tiles are maintained to a high standard to keep your home safe. A poorly conditioned roof can also lead to internal problems within the home, such as leaks and the infestation of pests or animals living within your attic.
Our roofing contractors are highly skilled professionals who know exactly how to tackle any roofing problem that may arise. We have fixed and maintained thousands of roofs over the many years we’ve been in operation, making us roofing industry leaders with a customer guarantee of a high-quality finish and excellent service. All our roofers come with the necessary skills and training to offer you the complete roofing service, which doesn’t compromise quality for affordable prices.
Soffits & Fascias
Conservatories & Sun Rooms
Conservatories
Sunrooms
Contrary to its given name, a sunroom offers more to your home than a space to enjoy when the sun is out. Different from a conservatory, a sunroom is a permanent structure that acts as a transitional space between the home and the garden. They offer plenty of light without being entirely made of glass — usually several elevations are fully or partly constructed of brick, blockwork or timber.

Structural Alterations
Structural alterations generally occur when properties are being modernised and creating more space.
All Victorian properties had chimneys and chimney breasts, as this was the only heat source. Today, modern properties rarely get built with chimneys as they have other sources for heat.
In older properties, people are removing the chimney breast to allow a more workable layout, often within kitchens.
The way we live is changing and more and more clients want open plan living, so not having lots of rooms. The removal of internal walls is required to achieve this.
With any form of structural alterations, structural engineers are required, as they will determine the strength of steel RSJ’s or what size lintels are needed. They are also required as these works need to be overseen by the local Building Control office who will issue a certificate of completion once the works are completed.
Jet Property Development offer the all services, structural calculations, refurbishment and paperwork and instructing the building control officer.
So, if you require your chimney breast removing or creating an open plan kitchen get in touch.
