Keep the character. Change how it feels to live there. From a kitchen that needs a fresh start to a wider home refurbishment, bring the rooms, finishes and practical details into one conversation.
A bigger kitchen. Another bedroom. A new connection to the garden. Tell us about your extension or loft ideas, the space you have now, and any drawings or permissions already in place.
Some changes are felt the moment you walk into a room. A different colour, a carefully finished wall, a fresh surface. Discuss decorating on its own or as part of a bigger transformation.
The surfaces you see and touch every day deserve thought. Bring your ideas for wall and floor tiles, a bathroom refresh or the finishing details of a kitchen, together with any plumbing changes.
How a home works matters as much as how it looks. Tell us about the existing plumbing and electrics, the fittings you want to change, and the work needed alongside your refurbishment.
A room, a floor or the whole home. Describe what you have now and what you would like to do differently.
Your home. Your priorities.

A few words from home
The little things. And the lasting ones.
Every home is personal. So is the experience of changing it.

We stayed in the house while the work was going on, which I was dreading a bit. The team kept things tidy and made sure we could still use the kitchen in the evenings. There were a couple of decisions we hadn’t thought through, and Aras talked us through them without making it a big deal.
The house feels like ours again. Just much better.

Our kitchen was awkward — plenty of space, somehow nowhere to put anything. What I appreciated was being able to ask a silly question and get a straight answer. We changed our minds about the tiles halfway through and worked out a sensible way forward.
We spend most of our time in here now.

I’m quite fussy about paintwork, especially around the old doors and skirting boards. They spent more time on the preparation than I expected, and you can see why. Even with the afternoon sun across the walls, the finish looks lovely.
A small job compared with a full renovation, but it never felt treated that way.

It’s a small bathroom, so every bit of space mattered. Aras suggested moving a couple of things around before we ordered anything. I’m glad we listened. The shower is comfortable, there’s proper storage, and it’s much easier to clean.
Nothing flashy. Just a room that works properly.

With an older house, you expect a few surprises once things are opened up. We had one with a wall, but it was explained to us clearly, with the options and the extra cost agreed before they went any further. That mattered to me.
Good communication, and a finish we’re very happy with.

We had a list of those little jobs you keep putting off — damaged plaster, tired woodwork, a room that never felt finished. It’s surprising what a difference getting them done properly makes. They also came back to sort a small bit we spotted afterwards.
I finally stopped looking at the things that needed doing.

Before you begin
A few useful answers.
Where does Aras work?+
Aras offers construction and decoration services across Greater London. Tell us the property postcode when you call so we can discuss your location and the work you have in mind.
What kinds of work can I discuss?+
Home refurbishment, house extensions, loft conversions, painting and decoration, tiling, plumbing and electrical work. Describe the full scope, even if your project covers several of these areas.
What should I have ready for a conversation?+
The property postcode, a short description of the work and the rooms involved are a useful start. Existing photographs, approximate dimensions and any drawings can help explain your ideas. You do not need to have every decision made.
Can I get a price from photographs alone?+
Photographs can help explain the space, but they do not establish the full scope or condition of a property. Costs and timescales need to be discussed and depend on the work, materials and any further information required.
Does the enquiry form send my details?+
No. It lets you organise and preview your project details and photographs on this page only. Nothing is sent to Aras. To speak about the work, call 07925 512 376. Reloading or leaving the page clears the details.
Where can I see work shared by Aras?+
Visit @arasdecoration on TikTok using the link on this site. The architectural photographs on this website are stock illustrations of services, rather than a portfolio of completed Aras projects.
