The team takes on the building side of a refurb: stripping out, knocking through and putting in steels, plastering, roofs and flooring, and getting rooms ready for the decorators. On the Shard End job the carpentry and plastering were finished before the decorators came in, and the house was handed over that week. The [kitchen-diner knock-through](https://brick2brick.co.uk/projects/kitchen-diner-knock-through/) shows a steel going in where a wall came out. ## How does a refurb run? On the Longbridge refurb the team kept working with no mains electricity while the energy supplier was still to connect it, then plastered the walls and white-washed them before the handover in June 2026. Work runs room by room, and the decorators come in once the building work is done. ## Do you need planning permission for a renovation? Most work inside a house needs no planning permission. Taking out a load-bearing wall, converting a garage or splitting a house into flats does need building regulations sign-off, and flats need planning permission too. Birmingham City Council handles both across the city. The [planning guide](https://brick2brick.co.uk/guides/planning-permission-for-extensions/) covers extensions. ## A recent job like this - [Garage conversion, Longbridge, 2025](https://brick2brick.co.uk/projects/longbridge-garage-conversion/): In November 2025 Brick2Brick UK finished converting a garage in Longbridge into a utility room and a shower room. ## Questions people ask Does Brick2Brick UK do kitchen refurbs in Birmingham?
