Our story
Renovations done the right way
Active Renovations was founded on a simple idea: homeowners deserve a renovation company that’s skilled, honest and easy to deal with. Too many people have a story about a job that ran over, a quote that crept up, or a tradesperson who stopped answering the phone — and we set out to be the opposite of that.
Based in Ashford, we work across Kent on everything from kitchens and bathrooms to extensions, conversions and full refurbishments. Whatever the project, you get one point of contact, a clear plan, and a team that treats your home with care from the first visit to the final handover.
Because we keep every trade in-house — joinery, plumbing, electrics, plastering and tiling — there's no chasing separate contractors and no gaps where things fall between the cracks. One team owns your project from start to finish, and the same person picks up the phone when you call.
It's an approach that has earned us a reputation across Kent for turning up when we say we will, pricing honestly with no hidden extras, and leaving homes clean and finished to a standard we'd be happy with in our own. Whether it's a single room or a whole-house transformation, we treat it as if it were our home.
