What we do

Renovations done properly, start to finish

Whether it is one room or the whole house, we design it, build it and finish it as a single project.

  1. Kitchens

    Bespoke kitchens designed around how you actually live, fitted to a standard that lasts.

  2. Bathrooms

    From family bathrooms to en-suites and wet rooms, tiled and finished with care.

  3. Extensions

    Single and multi-storey extensions that add real space and value, built to last.

  4. Whole-house renovations

    Bigger projects taken on end to end, with everything coordinated by one team.

  5. Worktops and finishes

    Quartz and granite worktops, templated and fitted, and the details that make a room feel finished.

How we work

One team, managed from first drawing to final clean

A renovation goes wrong when nobody owns it. With us, one team manages the whole job, so you are not left coordinating a builder, a plumber, an electrician and a joiner yourself.

  1. One point of contact who knows your project inside out.
  2. Trades that arrive in the right order, so the job keeps moving.
  3. Fresh plastic sheeting down every Monday, and your house handed back clean every Friday.
  4. We hire and manage the skip, so it is one less thing on your plate.
  5. A price and a programme agreed up front, and a team who work to them.
What an AMAZING company Abbeygas of Whitby are, all the way from the owner, James.

And we come back a year later

Twelve months after we fit a kitchen, we return and check it over, realigning any doors and drawers that have settled with use. Nobody asks us to. We do it because a kitchen should still feel right a year on, not just on handover day.

Who we work with

Quality materials, much of it sourced locally

On a renovation, the materials matter as much as the labour. We buy from people we know and trust, and a lot of it is local. That means you get exceptional, high-quality work rather than generic materials marked up.

Local first

Worktops come from Sparkle Granite in Guisborough, templated, made and fitted to measure. Building materials come from MKM in Whitby, and flooring from Fletcher & Woodhouse, trusted local flooring experts of over 20 years.

Recognised brands

For heating and hot water we fit names people trust, including Worcester Bosch and Ideal, with Nu-Heat and UK Underfloor for underfloor heating, and Calor for off-grid LPG.

Money stays local, and the quality comes from suppliers we have worked with for years.

Bigger jobs, run properly

  • James was excellent. Great price, even better than the quote! Jobs done cleanly and efficiently. Will definitely be using James again!

  • Did some work for us after our upstairs radiators wouldn't work. Turned up when they said they would and the work was carried out to a great standard, and when they left couldn't tell they had been. Apart from piping hot radiators.

  • We could not have been happier with Abbey Group who came to install a new boiler at very short notice. They were very professional, knowledgeable and were tidy workers too.

  • Timely, informative, helpful and a lovely fella. All business should be run like this.

Questions people ask

Renovation questions, answered

Do you project manage the whole renovation?

Yes. One team manages the job from first drawing to final clean, with a single point of contact and trades that arrive in the right order. You are not left chasing separate contractors or working out what happens next.

Can you renovate a holiday let without disrupting bookings?

Yes. We plan holiday-let and second-home renovations around your booking calendar, working to agreed dates so the property is ready for guests. Bring your key dates to the consultation and we build the programme around them.

Do you use local materials for renovations?

Yes. We source a lot of our materials locally, including worktops from Sparkle Granite in Guisborough and building materials from MKM in Whitby, alongside recognised brands like Worcester Bosch, Ideal and Nu-Heat. You get quality you can trust rather than generic materials marked up.

How long does a home renovation take?

It depends on the size and spec. As a rough guide, a bathroom usually takes one to two weeks, a kitchen two to four weeks, and a larger extension or whole-house renovation several months. We give you a clear programme with your quote so you know what to expect.

Part of the same project

Joinery and electrical work, in house

  • Building & Joinery

    Made-to-measure joinery and structural work, from staircases and fitted furniture to the building side of a project.

  • Electrical

    Rewiring, lighting and certification as part of a renovation, so the electrical work is not a separate contractor to chase.
