Stockbridge Flat Renovation
Hamilton Place, Edinburgh
Tucked in the heart of Stockbridge, this Hamilton Place flat needed a full refresh that respected its period character while making it work for modern living. Our team delivered a turnkey renovation covering demolition, structural tweaks, new services, bespoke joinery, plastering, tiling, flooring, decoration, and a spotless handover.
Architectural Design
Working closely with our architect partner, we reimagined the layout to unlock space and light. The design balanced contemporary functionality with the building’s heritage — opening up the kitchen/living area for social living, improving circulation, and ensuring every room feels proportioned and practical. Thoughtful detailing meant period features were preserved and highlighted, while new elements such as storage and lighting were seamlessly integrated.
The architectural input gave the project structure and clarity from the outset, ensuring planning requirements were met, drawings were accurate, and every trade worked to a well-considered design. This upfront investment meant smoother delivery and a finish that feels cohesive and intentional. The result was this Stockbridge flat renovation was a great success and one we’re proud of.
Interior Design
Alongside the layout improvements, our interior design team worked with the client to select finishes, colours, and fittings that complemented the property’s character while introducing a fresh, modern edge. A soft, neutral palette was paired with natural materials to keep the flat bright and timeless, while accent colours and feature lighting added personality.
Bespoke joinery solutions made in our Edinburgh workshop created elegant, integrated storage without compromising floor space. Window dressings, tiling choices, and flooring finishes were all carefully curated to ensure durability, practicality, and visual harmony across the home.
The result is an interior that feels calm, stylish, and ready for everyday life — a home that reflects the client’s taste while adding long-term value to the property.
All Trades Expertise
One of the key strengths of this renovation was our ability to deliver every aspect of the project under one roof. From joiners and plasterers to electricians, plumbers, tilers, decorators, and cleaners, our trusted network of trades worked seamlessly together under our project management.
This integrated approach meant fewer delays, clearer communication, and consistent quality across all stages. By coordinating every specialist, we ensured that details such as service runs, finishing tolerances, and sequencing were planned and executed efficiently. The client benefited from one point of contact, a clear cost plan, and the confidence that every trade was held to the same high standard.
