Need More Space Without Leaving Brixton?

Many local homeowners want extra room without 
moving away from the neighbourhood they know. If a refurbishment alone will not solve the problem, we can help you explore a loft conversion or extension.

Tired finishes across a rental or investment property
A garden that does not feel connected to the home
Renovating in Brixton

Renovating Brixton Homes With Local Context in Mind

Brixton is not a one-size-fits-all location. Homes around Acre Lane, Brixton Hill and Brockwell Park can raise different questions from flats closer to Coldharbour Lane, Atlantic Road and the town centre.

The Brixton Conservation Area covers much of the Victorian town centre. Its recognised landmarks include Lambeth Town Hall, Tate Library, the Ritzy Cinema, St Matthew’s Church and Brixton’s covered markets. The conservation area boundary was updated in January 2024.

Brixton Hill has its own linear conservation area, with historic development along the main road and residential streets on either side. Rush Common also deserves attention. The protected land runs along Brixton Hill towards Streatham and includes sections of private land fronting Brixton Hill and Effra Road. Above-ground building work on Rush Common land can require separate council consent.

Local access matters too. The Brixton Hill Low Traffic Neighbourhood affects through-access on some residential streets, although premises remain accessible by motor vehicle. For larger renovations in Brixton, thinking about deliveries and site logistics early can help the work run more smoothly.

These details do not mean every project is complicated. They mean the right starting point is an informed look at your property, your street and the work you want to complete.

Frequently Asked Questions
The cost depends on the condition of the property, the size of the space, the materials selected and the work involved. A kitchen refurbishment will be priced differently from a complete property renovation. Contact us to discuss your requirements.
Smaller refurbishments may take a few weeks. Full **renovations in Brixton** can take several months depending on the scope of work. We discuss the expected schedule before construction begins.
Many internal alterations do not require planning permission. However, the position can be different for listed buildings, changes to the external appearance, extensions, loft conversions or changes of use. Always confirm the requirements for your property before work begins.
They often apply to substantial work. Lambeth Council lists extensions, loft conversions, removing internal walls, new electrical cabling and creating a new bath or shower room among the works that may require approval.
It may affect work that changes the external appearance of your property. Brixton town centre and Rush Common and Brixton Hill are separate conservation areas. Check the position for your address and proposed work.
Some land fronting Brixton Hill and Effra Road is protected under the Rush Common Act 1806. Above-ground building work or new structures on Rush Common land require separate council consent in addition to any other permissions.

I recently used AL-KO Renovations Ltd for my home renovation, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and quality of workmanship are outstanding. Altin and his team was reliable, tidy, and always went above and beyond to make sure everything was done to perfection.
I highly recommend working with AL-KO Renovations Ltd

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Alko Renovations. Altin and his team did an amazing job doing our full house renovation: Bathroom remodelling, new flooring, plastering, painting, new ceiling, making alcove unit and many more.
When I first met Altin to show around the house, he seemed the type who knows about building work, he is the owner and manages project but is also hands on in doing the work. He gave me a quote which we felt fine with and began the work. He adhered to the start date. Altin never took shortcuts and always suggested and did better work even if it meant extra work for him. Eventually, he did a bunch of small things like lock changes for free. He asked X% advance and then said whenever something gets done(like bathroom) pay that amount which was fair. And he was never in rush to ask for payments.

With builders, there is always uncertainty of work not getting finished on time, but I am glad our work got delivered on time and with good Quality. It's been 2 months we are living in our new house and no major complains so far. It was a fun project working with Altin and his team and I will definitely ask him for future projects.

Altin took on a big renovation project for us at the end of 2023. He and his team stripped out a derelect flat, rebuilt several walls and designed a whole new flat.

Thoughout the project Altin was great to work with. He took time to understand what we wanted and our budget, helped make design suggestions, and was always fair and kind in his interactions with us. Altin delivered the project on time and to a high standard. We would work with him again and recommend him to others.

After a year of searching for a builder I could trust, I found Altin. From the moment I met him, I had a good impression. He was easy to talk to, listened to my ideas, and explained step by step how he would complete the project and how long it would take. Altin (and his team) renovated my entire flat. The work included electrical rewiring, plumbing, carpentry (including a bespoke bookcase, alcove shelving, new door frames, architraves, skirting, and internal doors), floor levelling, tiling, painting, plastering, as well as the installation of a new bathroom and new kitchen. Altin and his team were able to handle every aspect of the renovation with ease, and the end result is a beautiful living space that exceeded my expectations. I cannot recommend Altin and his team highly enough. They were professional, courteous, and incredibly skilled at their craft. They made the renovation process a pleasure, and I am thrilled with the end result.
