Complete House Refurbishment
in Sheffield

Designed, built & finished under one roof.

Whether you’re transforming a tired family home or repositioning a buy-to-let investment, a complete house refurbishment in Sheffield asks a lot of a contractor. You need one team taking responsibility for every trade, every deadline and every detail — not a string of subcontractors passing the job between them. That’s how we work: from the first conversation to the final fix, you deal with the same people throughout, across Sheffield, South Yorkshire and North Derbyshire.

We tailor the scope to the property — a two-bed terrace prepared for letting needs a different specification to a period home being brought back to its best, and we plan each accordingly.

What a refurbishment includes

A full-property refurbishment touches every part of the building. Depending on condition and your plans, our work typically covers strip-out and structural alterations (including knocking through to form open-plan spaces), rewiring to current standards, new plumbing, heating and bathrooms, replastering, flooring and joinery throughout, kitchen design and installation, windows, doors and external repairs, and full decoration and finishes.

However you’re approaching it

Your own home

How the house works for the way you live — opening up spaces, keeping the period details worth keeping, replacing the tired ones, finished to a standard you notice every day.

An investment property

A property that lets quickly and stands out in the local market, delivered to a budget that makes the numbers work — with a clear scope and a realistic programme.

Itemised, not guesstimated

What a complete refurbishment costs

Complete refurbishments range from a focused single-property update to a large home taken right back to brick — so the cost depends on the size of the property, the condition you’re starting from, and the quality of fixtures and finishes you choose. We give you a clear, itemised quote before any work begins, so you know exactly where your budget goes.

In practice

If you’re not sure how far your budget will stretch, our early-stage feasibility studies set out costed options for the property, so you can settle the scope before committing to detailed designs.

FAQ

How it runs

How it runsHow a Sheffield refurbishment is run from first visit to handover — and why knowing the local housing stock keeps it on track.

We keep it straightforward and visible: a first conversation at the property to understand your goals and discuss budget honestly; a detailed scope and itemised quote with costs broken down clearly; an agreed programme and order of works; our team managing every trade on site and keeping you updated as it progresses; and a handover walk-through where we put right anything that isn’t right.

Sheffield’s housing stock is varied — Victorian terraces in the inner suburbs, stone-built period homes further out, post-war semis and newer family houses towards Derbyshire. Each comes with its own quirks, from solid walls and original features to drainage and access on hillside plots. Years of working across these properties means fewer surprises once work is underway, and a programme you can rely on.

Enough about us, what do our clients say?

“Where to start! After purchasing our house late last year we were looking for a trustworthy and high quality company to support us through our renovation. Unity have made the whole process painless and enjoyable. From the guys who did our plastering and structural work (Jamie and Callum) through to our amazing Bathroom fitter and pro of all trades Jason, everyone was kind, patient and professional. Renovations can be overwhelming and intrusive, but we couldn’t have been made more comfortable by the team. We would recommend them to anyone looking for work done - absolutely flawless. Thank you for turning our house into a home. We will be back!”

Phoebe Perry

“We had a complete renovation of our 4 bedroom house including extension and change of floor plan. This large project involved regular discussion and detailed planning. We were very excited to understand Unity’s enthusiasm to deliver such an extensive project. During the long process, we found unity to be extremely thoughtful and driven to deliver our desired outcome. Elliot communicated well with us to carry out our vision and we had regular meetings to understand the scope. Adrian’s commitment to achieve the best possible standard is admirable. We found the Unity workforce very engaging with our young family and are extremely pleased with our end result. We couldn’t be happier with our home!!! Thank you!!!! ”

Dhivya John

“The team was professional, friendly, and clearly experts in their field from start to finish. The whole process was very collaborative. They took the time to really understand what we wanted and even suggested ideas that made the final design even better. Communication was excellent, and we were always kept in the loop on progress and costs. In fact, due to the collaborative nature of the company and having the flexible ability of the Cost Plus agreement, Unity came in under budget, meaning we actually received a saving on the initial projected cost. As you can see from the photos the quality of the work speaks for itself. The patio looks amazing, and the landscaping has completely transformed our outdoor space. You can tell they really care about the details, and we are so pleased to have our garden back from where it was before they started in the first photo! Our experience was nothing but positive, and we’re so happy with the work they did. We’ve already started planning our next project with them. As a homeowner it is really hard to find trustworthy professionals and sadly we have had experience of the some of the cowboys that are out there. However, it’s refreshing to work with a team that genuinely delivers on their promises and we feel we can trust. Unity Development Group is a rare find, and I can’t recommend them highly enough.”

Claire Morley

“Words cannot describe how fortunate we have been to have Elliot and his team working on our house renovation project. Consistently demonstrating exceptional levels of knowledge, commitment and professionalism. Furthermore, the level of communication flow has been excellent throughout. It is clear that they are perfectionists with a wealth of knowledge and skills within the team, excellent leadership and are client-centred: sharing their expertise while harmonising with client expectations. We have recommended Unity to several of our friends who have already jumped on board (or pending) and we all share the same feeling. If you are looking for a team at the top of their game, to help make your home perfect, then I believe it would be difficult to find a team stronger than Unity.”

Hey Long Ching

“Would highly recommend Unity. Elliot, Adrian and all the team that worked on our home improvements were so friendly, professional and skilled at what they do. Our plans evolved during the project but Unity were flexible and happy to adapt to meet our requirements. Great company to deal with.”

Jayne Bacon

“Every member of his team was incredibly kind, patient in communication, and demonstrated a high level of responsibility. They handled every detail with care and completed the work to an outstanding standard. No matter the size of the request, they gave it full attention and dedication, ensuring the best possible outcome. Unity Development Group is the most reliable company I have encountered since arriving in the UK, and I am truly grateful to them. ”

Chloe Tong

“We have used these guys to renovate our first home and they have been excellent. They've always showed a great professionality and empathy and have walked us through a very stressful process very nicely. Super transparent, talkative and attentive, always watching the spending and trying their best to deliver a great service and finish respecting our budget. We can't recommend them enough!”
