Building & home renovations in Devon
Make your home work better for the way you live. RJD Property Services helps homeowners plan practical building work and renovations, with Robbie as your first point of contact from the initial conversation.
A clear plan before work begins
A renovation may involve one room, a change to an existing layout or several improvements that need to happen in the right order. The starting point is understanding the property, your priorities and the finish you want. Robbie brings more than 20 years of hands-on building and property experience to that discussion.
What we can discuss
- Internal renovations and improvements to existing rooms
- Timber partitions, practical joinery and making good, subject to the agreed design
- Plastering, flooring preparation and finishing work within the agreed scope
- Coordinating the sequence of building tasks and any specialist input required
Think through the whole job
A change that looks simple can affect access, existing services, finishes and the rooms around it. We discuss protection for the occupied parts of your home, how materials will reach the work area and what needs to be completed before the next trade starts. Structural alterations need appropriate design and assessment; electrical, gas and other specialist work must be handled by suitably qualified people where required. These responsibilities and costs are agreed before work starts.
Useful guidance: GOV.UK: building regulations approval. Requirements must be checked for your own property.

Your questions
Can I stay at home during a renovation?
Often parts of a home can remain in use, but it depends on the work. Tell Robbie about children, pets, home working and any access needs so the sequence and disruption can be discussed realistically.
Can you work from drawings I already have?
Yes, send your drawings with the enquiry. Robbie will discuss the proposed building work and identify any further design, structural information or specialist input needed before quoting.
