House Renovation Kensington – Exterior Restoration with Lasting Results

While working on a façade project on one of Kensington’s residential streets, our IGNAS team was approached by a passer-by – the owner of a property just a few blocks away. Intrigued by the QUALITY of our work, PRECISION, and AESTHETIC FINISH, he requested a non-binding quote. Although he had never used our services before, TRUST CAME NATURALLY – as we like to say, the best advertisement is a visible result.

From the very first meeting, it was clear that the owner wasn’t interested in a quick refresh. The project required a COMPREHENSIVE RESTORATION – respecting the CLASSIC CHARACTER of the building while using MODERN, DURABLE MATERIALS and solutions. We proposed a detailed action plan based on our extensive experience in HOUSE RENOVATION IN KENSINGTON.

After close inspection, it became evident that the façade needed far more than just a new coat of paint. CRACKED RENDER, PEELING SURFACES, and inconsistent previous repairs required a THOROUGH APPROACH. Instead of masking the issues, we tackled them at the root.

• Applying a full layer of REINFORCING MESH across the façade
• TOUPRET SKIMCOAT with fibres – a CRACK-RESISTANT, HIGH-DURABILITY MATERIAL
• Priming the surfaces using TOUPRET STABILISER
• Restoration of ARCHITECTURAL DETAILS (cornices, frames, mouldings) using TOUPRET MUREX
• METALWORK RESTORATION (balconies, railings) – cleaning, anti-corrosion treatment, painting
• Complete WOODEN WINDOW RESTORATION (front and back) using REPAIR CARE SYSTEM, including wood replacements

We used high-quality SATIN PAINTS IN PASTEL TONES to finish the windows and woodwork. The result was a SUBTLE ELEGANCE that perfectly matched the CLASSICAL ARCHITECTURE of the home and the refined aesthetics of Kensington.

As part of a separate commission, our team also refurbished the INTERIOR of the home – protecting floors, sanding, priming, and painting with LITTLE GREENE paints. We’ll share that part of the project in another case study – here, we’re focusing on the exterior.

The entire project took approximately 8 WEEKS and was completed on schedule. The client visited regularly to monitor progress and consistently expressed his satisfaction with the QUALITY, COMMUNICATION, and PROFESSIONALISM. Since then, he has continued to work with us on other properties across London.

This project proves that GOOD WORK SPEAKS FOR ITSELF – no advertising or referrals were needed. As SPECIALISTS IN HOUSE RENOVATION IN KENSINGTON, we understand how important the details are: SURFACE PREPARATION, MATERIAL QUALITY, and clear CLIENT COMMUNICATION.
