Little Venice Builders Project

Here are some 'Before' and 'In Progress' photos of a Tiptoe Builders refurbishment project in Little Venice. This three-bedroom home is undergoing some massive work, starting with knocking down the wall between the narrow, galley kitchen and opening it up to the reception area. Here is where our London building team is at in the project:




Stay tuned for the finished project...

Belgique - London Builders favourite source






You might think you're seeing a flawless wood floor in the photos above. In fact, you're looking at an exciting new porcelain product—one which imitates the look and feel of oak wood.

Produced by Casa Dolce Casa, the flooring is called Belgique and comes in five different versions, from a dark grey to a milky white. 

Tiptoe Builders have used Belgique tiles in two different projects, and we've been very impressed with the quality and finish. It's perfect for achieving a wood floor look in wet rooms, bathrooms and kitchens. 

Belgique is available in London at World End Tiles

Maida Vale Builders : Before and After

A complete transformation, don't you agree? We love the peek into the child's room as well — very sweet. This refurbishment was swiftly completed by Tiptoe Builders in a Maida Vale mansion block flat. 

Cast Iron Radiators in London



We recently fitted traditional-style cast iron radiators in a Maida Vale building project. The radiators looked beautiful and complimented the refurbished flat wonderfully. The radiators are a bit pricey, but worth the style they bring to a practical, necessary item such as radiators.
