Perth Property Types We've Renovated
Perth has a varied housing stock, and we've worked across all of it. Here are the main property types we renovate, extend and convert in the area.
Period & Traditional Stone Properties
Many Perth homes are built from local stone with original sash windows, lath-and-plaster walls and lime mortar. We renovate these properties sympathetically — improving insulation, layout and services without stripping out the character that makes them special.
Victorian & Edwardian Townhouses
High ceilings, large bay windows and original cornicing are typical of Perth's Victorian and Edwardian housing. Our renovation work restores period detail while modernising kitchens, bathrooms, electrics and heating to current standards.
Post-War Semis & Bungalows
Post-war and 1960s–80s properties in Perth often benefit hugely from open-plan reconfiguration, kitchen extensions, loft conversions and full re-services. We've completed dozens of projects of this type across Perthshire.
Modern & New-Build Family Homes
Newer estates around Perth are well-built but rarely arrive finished to taste. We add media walls, panelling, fitted storage, garden rooms, decking and high-spec kitchens and bathrooms to make a new house feel like your home.
How We Work
Our 5-Step Process for Perth Projects
Every Perth renovation we deliver follows the same structured workflow. It's how we avoid the chaos that gives builders a bad name, and how we keep projects on time and on budget.
1. Free On-Site Consultation
We visit your Perth property to understand the brief, take measurements and discuss what's realistic within your budget and timeframe. There's no obligation and no charge for this visit.
2. Detailed Quote & Scope
You receive a written quote that breaks down materials, labour, contingencies and a clear scope of works. No vague day rates, no hidden extras — just one transparent number you can plan around.
3. Drawings, Warrants & Permissions
Where required, we coordinate architectural drawings, structural engineering, building warrants and planning submissions with Perth & Kinross Council (or the relevant local authority for your area).
4. Managed Build on Site
One project manager, one point of contact, one programme. Trades are sequenced properly, the site is kept tidy, and you receive regular updates so you always know what's happening this week and next.
5. Snagging, Sign-Off & Aftercare
Before we leave, we walk the project with you, fix any snags and provide warranties, certificates and care notes. We're a local Perth contractor — you can pick up the phone after handover and we'll answer.
Planning & Building Regulations
Planning & Building Standards in Perth
Most renovation projects in Perth fall under the planning and building standards regime administered by Perth & Kinross Council. We work with these departments regularly, which means warrants, certificates of completion and inspection visits are handled correctly the first time.
Single-storey rear extensions, internal layout changes, loft conversions and garage conversions in Perth often qualify as permitted development, but a building warrant is almost always required for structural work, drainage alterations and changes to means of escape. We'll confirm exactly what your project needs before any work begins.
If your Perth property is listed, in a conservation area, or close to a protected boundary, additional consents may be required. We've delivered sympathetic renovations on traditional stone, Victorian and Edwardian properties throughout Perthshire and surrounding counties, and we know how to work with conservation officers to get sensible approvals through.
Local Knowledge
Why Choose a Local Perth Contractor
Perth is our home base. We know the local building control team, trusted suppliers, and the architectural styles that define this historic city. Whether you're renovating a Georgian townhouse on Tay Street or extending a family home in Letham, we bring local knowledge and reliable project management.
Choosing a local contractor for your Perth renovation isn't just about convenience — it's about accountability. We live and work in Perthshire, our reputation is built locally, and the majority of our projects come from word-of-mouth referrals in towns like Perth.
Being local also means we know the suppliers, the building control officers, the architects and the merchants in the area. That translates into faster lead times, better material pricing and far fewer of the delays that plague projects run by contractors travelling in from outside the region.
Frequently Asked Questions
Perth Renovation FAQs
The questions we get asked most often by Perth homeowners considering a renovation, extension or conversion project.
Do you cover the whole of Perth?
Yes. We cover Perth and the surrounding villages and suburbs as part of our regular service area from our Perth base. There's no travel surcharge for projects in the area.
How much does a renovation cost in Perth?
Costs vary widely depending on the scope, finish level and any structural work involved. As a guide, kitchen renovations typically start from around £15,000, bathrooms from £8,000, and house extensions from £35,000. We provide written, itemised quotes after a free site visit so you know exactly what's included.
Do I need planning permission for my project in Perth?
Many extensions, loft conversions and internal alterations fall under permitted development, but anything affecting the front elevation, height, footprint or a listed building usually requires a planning application to Perth & Kinross Council (or the relevant authority). We'll tell you exactly what's needed at the consultation stage.
How long will my Perth project take?
Bathrooms typically run 2–3 weeks, kitchens 3–5 weeks, loft and garage conversions 6–10 weeks, and full extensions 10–16 weeks depending on size and groundworks. Every quote includes a realistic programme.
Are you insured and do you provide guarantees?
Yes. Marshall & Co (Scot) Ltd carries full public liability insurance, and our workmanship is guaranteed. Manufacturer warranties on materials, kitchens, windows and appliances are passed through to you on completion.
Can you handle the full project, including design and trades?
Yes — that's exactly what we do. We project-manage every trade in-house or through long-standing local subcontractors so you have one contract, one point of contact and one programme for the entire build.
