About renovating in Isle of Capri

Isle of Capri is a compact, established island suburb where nearly every street ends at water. The blocks are valuable enough that owners renovate to a high standard rather than move, and the briefs usually centre on opening the home to the canal. A mix of 1970s and 80s brick waterfront homes being extensively renovated, and newer architectural rebuilds. Rear living reconfigurations, kitchens facing the water, pool-surround decking and full flooring replacements are the recurring scopes. Canal-front work brings tidal considerations, boundary and revetment wall setbacks, and the need to protect existing pontoons and landscaping during the build. Narrow streets and limited kerbside space also mean staged deliveries and a tightly managed site. We take on projects of every size in Isle of Capri - from replacing a kitchen or laying new flooring through to full home renovations and insurance repairs. Every project is run by one licensed team, quoted at a fixed price after a site inspection, and delivered with clear communication and a tidy site.
