Tomasz and Viola have done a wonderful job transforming our kitchen (both old and new cabinets) and also our lounge. Not only is their work flawless, they were also exceptionally tidy and considerate of our home. I highly recommend them.

We recently had our bathroom completely renovated by Abinger Construction and the whole process was outstanding from start to finish. Tomasz and his team were incredibly professional,organised and clearly take a great pride in their work.From the intial consultation through to completion,communication was excellent and everything was explained clearly,which gave us a lot of confidence throughout the project. The quality of workmanship is truly exceptional.the tiling,plumbing ,carpentry and finishing details were all carried out to a very high standard,and final result exceeded our expectations.Our new bathroom looks absolutely beautiful and feels like something you would see in luxury hotel. What really stood out was how clean,respectful and reliable the team were..They arrived on time every day,kept the house tidy and made the whole process far less stressful than w eexpected a renovation to be. If you are looking for company that delivers high quality ,attention to details and honest communication ,we would highly recommend Abinger Construction.We wouldn't hesitate to use them again for future projects.

Tomasz and his team were excellent and we would highly recommend them. They were highly efficient, friendly and hard working. From the quote through to end of the project they communicated clearly, came up with great troubleshooting ideas and provided regular updates. We will be sure to use them again for future works on the house.

I used Abinger Construction (following a recommendation) for the recent refurbishment of my bathroom. I was very happy with the service they provided from the beginning until the end of the project. The quote was very competitive and Tomasz was very helpful in advising what was possible and what was not and generally in managing expectations. The work was completed to the schedule advised. Tomasz and his team were professional and organised throughout. I am delighted with the quality of the finish. I would have no hesitation in recommending Abinger Construction.

Tomasz is very organised, his team are skilled, and the workmanship is of a very high standard. I worked with him to deliver one of my projects and have also viewed several of his past projects, all finished beautifully. What really stands out is his honesty when pricing: he allows for what’s needed from the start, so you don’t get unexpected extras for small things along the way. As an architect, I find this makes the whole process much easier and far less stressful. Highly recommended.”

Tomasz and his team were amazing as usual! They helped us through the process of deciding the design of the bathroom and then were there every day, bang on 8am busy working away. The bathroom has blown us all away in the house and was done in 2.5 weeks to an amazing standard. Thanks to him and his team so much!

I was very pleased with the work done on the rendering of the back of the house. It is a large tall house and the job was done very well. The scaffolder was efficient. The builders kept me informed throughout the job with photos taken of the high parts of the job. I was very pleased with the job that was done.

Thomasz and Wiola completely redecorated our sitting room, including stripping an entire staircase. It was a pleasure to have them in the house. They were extremely hard working and so clean and tidy. I would highly recommend them. They also built and painted a bespoke television/storage unit which looks very smart.

Internal renovations in Dorking stand or fall on accountability. Every job we take runs under one dedicated project manager, from first consultation to final walkthrough, so you have one person to ring and one written plan to hold us to.

The Quick Answer

  • The strip-out to second fix order we follow in every room
  • How four written stages set out costs, timelines and permits
  • Why West Street and South Street access shapes delivery planning
  • How bathrooms are tanked, tiled and finished while you live there

As a Surrey building company, we work alongside your own architect, designer or showroom and take responsibility for the build, coordination and finish, exactly as we do on a house refurbishment in Dorking. Workmanship carries a 10-year guarantee, subject to its terms.

Ask Abinger Construction Ltd for a free quote in Dorking and see your written proposal before any work starts.

Review 1

Internal Renovation Scope

Dorking’s housing stock runs from 18th-century cottages near the centre to Victorian family homes, 1920s semi-detached houses and modern apartments. Each asks something different of an internal renovation. A Victorian terrace may need a dividing wall opened and its skirting boards and architraves kept or matched. A 1920s semi usually wants a reworked layout and a heating system that suits it. An apartment means tight access and neighbours on every side.

The work follows the same order every time:

  • Protection of floors, stairs and the rooms you are still using
  • Strip-out, then a look at what the walls and floors actually hide
  • Any reconfiguration agreed in the layout
  • First fix for plumbing, heating and electrics, carried out by the subcontractors we coordinate
  • Plastering, then second fix
  • Carpentry, flooring, skirting boards and architraves
  • Decorating, snagging and a final clean

That order matters. Plaster laid before first fix is plaster cut open again. Decorating before flooring is decorating done twice. A fixed sequence is how a home renovation stays predictable, which is why we write it down before work starts.

Costs, Timelines, and Permissions in Dorking

You should know what you are paying for, how long each stage runs and which approvals apply before anything is lifted. So every project follows four stages under one dedicated project manager, your single point of contact throughout.

1. Consultation and design

We look at the house, the layout you want and any drawings you already have. If you have your own architect or designer, we work alongside them, or from agreed layouts and product selections.

2. Written proposal

You receive a transparent written proposal with a breakdown of costs, timelines and permits. Removing a wall or changing drainage can bring the work under The Building Regulations 2010, and parts of town such as the Rose Hill conservation area carry planning constraints. We handle the applications and permits. Approval sits with the authority, so the proposal is built around it, never assumed.

3. Construction under your project manager

Your project manager coordinates the subcontractors, schedules inspections and keeps you informed as each stage closes. Access is planned too. Dorking’s centre grew from one long High Street that splits into West Street and South Street, and older buildings there often share party walls and narrow frontages. The Friday market and Saturday street market bring heavy footfall, so deliveries are timed around them. If you want a builder close to home in Dorking who plans for that before the first skip arrives, this is where it shows.

4. Inspection and walkthrough

Quality inspections come first. Then we walk the finished rooms with you. Workmanship carries a 10-year guarantee, subject to its terms and conditions, and if something is not right we come back and put it right. We take on internal renovations in Dorking and internal renovations in Westcott alike, so the whole area is covered.

Kitchen and Bathroom Refurbishment

Bathrooms and wetrooms are our declared focus. Inside a wider renovation, the bathroom is stripped out and prepared, then waterproofed and tanked before any wall or floor tiling goes on. Sanitaryware, brassware and underfloor heating follow, then finishing and final checks.

Tanking is the part you never see. It is also the part that decides whether a bathroom lasts. A wetroom adds falls to the floor so water reaches the drain, and getting those falls right is most of the job.

For the layout, our Bathroom Concept and Layout Service gives you a measured layout plan, a 2D floor plan and 3D visual concept images, with practical advice on installation. It is a paid service, fully deducted from the installation cost. It is a concept layout service rather than a full interior design specification, and final product selections are made with your own supplier or showroom.

Kitchens follow the same discipline: preparation first, services in the right order, then a neat finish. And because you will likely be living in the house, the site is protected, kept tidy, and you are told what moves next.

From the Deepdene roads to Knoll Road and Rothes Road, many Dorking houses need more than one room reworked. Internal renovations in Dorking often sit beside conversions in Dorking, turning existing space into living space, and we cover the whole area for both. Ask for a free quote and we will start with a written proposal for your house.
