Established in 2008 Shaun Davies Home Solutions provide a complete "end to end" refurbishment service.
We are able to provide a complete Design & Build service coupled with comprehensive "in house" Kitchen, Bedroom & Bathroom design expertise.
We are a specialist kitchen, bathroom & bedroom retailer that has been trading for over 10 years, providing a huge portfolio of products through direct accounts with leading furniture manufacturers throughout the UK & Europe. With our sister company our product revenue is close to half a million pounds.
We are looking to limit and ultimately move away from providing a build/install service for us to focus on the retail side of the business and large demand for our virtual reality design service.
Our enquiries for projects such as New Builds, Extensions, Kitchen/Bathroom Installs are high so "we are simply looking to pass this work on to the right people" in exchange for opportunities to quote on supplying the furniture/fixtures/fittings for these types of projects.
Because of the background to our business we fully appreciate and understand what you the contractor are looking for and what would further benefit you.
We will be in touch to see if you would like to be included in our data base. Alternatively, feel free to contact us in the meantime.
What have you got to lose?
Many thanks for your time and wishing you well during these difficult times.

Company Director
WHY CHOOSE AN EXTENSION?
Extending your property is one of the easiest ways to create the additional space that you seek.Far easier, for instance, than sourcing a new home and going through the notoriously stressful process of moving only to find you still need to refurbish the property to make it work for you.
An extension is the most cost-effective way to increase the size, functionality & desirability of your home, whilst generally adding significant value if done to a high standard.
IS MY HOME SUITABLE FOR AN EXTENSION?
Whether or not your home is suitable for an extension is almost entirely dependent on the amount of land that you own. And to some degree the position of your property in relation to your land and indeed neighbouring properties. On the whole nearly all homes are able to be extended and the process if often very uncomplicated.
WILL I NEED PLANNING PERMISISON?
A fact that many homeowners are not aware of is that if your proposed extension falls within a certain percentage of the size of your land, no planning permission maybe required, this would fall under “permitted development” There are certainly other factors involved but this is a good starting point.
At Shaun Davies Home Solutions we have the experience and professional connections to make the process as easy as possible. We are able to take care of all the administration involved in getting your dream concept turned into reality, including appointing Architects, Surveyors and even Planning Appeal Specialists whose sole job it is to get your planning approved.
HOW MUCH IS A SINGLE STORY EXTENSION LIKELY TO COST?
Statistically the average extension is around 16m2 (most householders in our experience knock through into existing rooms to create an even larger footprint however) and the average cost for a straightforward project using conventional materials/methods is £1,600m2 according to the Institution of Chartered Surveyors (no glossy magazine statistics here sorry). This means your 16m2 extension is likely to cost approximately £25,600 as a starting point.
Now what you need to factor in are planning fees, professional fees for Architect’s etc, fixtures & fittings, the all-important Bi Fold doors & log burner, the un glamourous but essential waste removal (skip hire) & specialist trades such as tilers and kitchen installers. This is where your overall costs will typically increase from between 30% and 300% for the same footprint.
Our aim is to give you the space you want at the price you can afford, of course this s not always possible but we really do strive to achieve this. Some obvious but great advice is to put together a Wish List, we have our own which you may find useful, and define the “Must haves & Would like to haves”
And finally, be willing to compromise, but compromise in the right areas. This is where our experience and product knowledge will be invaluable to you.
WHY RENOVATE YOUR HOME?
In our experience there are generally 5 reasons..
What you will spend and indeed should spend will differ depending on “your” reasons and financial standing. For example in 2018 the averageUK household spent between £10-20,000 on there kitchen refurbishments. Typically, this figure would be too high to assist a house sale but not high enough to truly maximize the space and create the ultimate Wow factor.
A great way of significantly improving the functionality, space and feel of a home is to open up a kitchen and traditional dining room to create one large space that connects the whole family and really does transform day to day life around the home.
This can be both relatively easy and inexpensive to carry out or quite complex and expensive. That’s where expert advice is essential.
We consider it our duty to help guide you down the right path and advise on the correct amount to spend and as importantly, the correct specification of products to meet your criteria. Over specification is as bad as under specification in our opinion. For example, do you really need a dishwasher with 12 programmes when most house holders would never want or need to use more than 3.
Whatever your requirements we will work hard to meet them and always offer you professional, honest & unbiased advice.
We are able to provide every trade required and enlist the services of trade partners/professionals in the form of Architects/Structural Surveyors/Quantity Surveyors
We are passionate about using the latest technologies in our design process. Prepare to be immersed and amazed at the power of the latest in VR technology.
Step into your room, move around, open cupboards and why not sit at your island for a Virtual cup of coffee!
We would love to discuss your ideas. Why not book an informal video meeting, face to face or phonecall using our LIVE booking system.
