At Ridge Group Contracting, we understand that a property is more than just bricks and mortar; it is an investment, a home, and a space that should evolve to meet your needs. Whether you have purchased a dilapidated Victorian terrace in need of total modernisation or you wish to breathe new life into a tired family home, our comprehensive refurbishment services are designed to transform your vision into reality. Based in Brighton, we specialise in high-quality property refurbishments across East Sussex, blending modern building techniques with a deep respect for the architectural heritage of our local area.
Refurbishment is often the most cost-effective way to increase the value of your asset while tailoring the living space to your exact lifestyle requirements. Unlike a simple redecoration, a refurbishment often involves a holistic approach to the building’s fabric. This can range from stripping a property back to its shell and upgrading the electrics and plumbing, to re-plastering, installing new flooring, and reconfiguring the layout for open-plan living.
Our team of skilled tradespeople—including carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and decorators—work in unison under dedicated project management. This ensures that every phase of the refurbishment, from the initial rip-out to the final coat of paint, is executed with precision and care.
We offer a bespoke service tailored to the specific condition and requirements of your building.
For properties that have suffered from years of neglect, a full renovation is required. We manage the entire process, including damp proofing, roof repairs, window replacement, and structural stabilisation. We specialise in period properties in Brighton and Hove, ensuring that original features such as cornicing, sash windows, and fireplaces are sympathetically restored or replicated.
Your business environment reflects your brand. We work with office managers, landlords, and retail business owners in Sussex to refurbish commercial spaces. Our focus is on minimising downtime and disruption to your business operations while delivering a durable, high-quality finish that impresses clients and creates a productive workspace for staff.
Modern living often demands more space and light. As part of our refurbishment packages, we frequently undertake structural alterations such as removing load-bearing walls to create kitchen-diners, inserting steel beams, and resizing door or window openings to maximise natural light.
Refurbishing a property can be a daunting prospect for homeowners. The fear of spiralling costs and unforeseen structural issues is common. At Ridge Group Contracting, we prioritise transparency and communication.
Local Expertise: We know Brighton and Sussex housing stock inside out. We understand the common pitfalls associated with bungaroosh walls, seaside weathering, and conservation area restrictions.
Project Management: You will have a single point of contact throughout the build. We handle the logistics of skip hire, material delivery, and trade scheduling so you don’t have to.
Quality Assurance: We do not cut corners. From the quality of the first fix materials to the finesse of the final joinery, our work is built to last.
A major component of modern refurbishment is improving energy efficiency. Older homes in East Sussex are often draughty and expensive to heat. We can integrate thermal upgrades into your refurbishment, including internal wall insulation, underfloor heating systems, and smart home technology. This not only reduces your carbon footprint but significantly lowers future utility bills.
