We had our bathroom torn out and rebuilt from scratch. Some co-ordination was required with other tradesmen to fix some rot; sweet homes were flexible to accommodate this. Brunon and his team worked with us from the start to advise, assist with furnishing selection, and giving a realistic timeline. Throughout the work they were hard-working, friendly, tidy and professional. We are delighted with the end result; high quality finish and attention to detail. We would definitely recommend their services.

Where we work around Stirling
We take on renovation work in Bridge of Allan and Dunblane. We do not currently take on renovation work in Stirling itself or elsewhere in the Stirling Council area.
Sweet Homes is an Edinburgh contractor, and a job here runs the same way as a job in Edinburgh: the same sequence, the same supply-and-fit rule and the same written quotation.
The homes we renovate here
Both towns have a large stock of stone-built Victorian villas and terraces, alongside interwar and later family houses. They are the same kinds of building we renovate across Edinburgh: original cornicing, joinery and fireplaces to keep, older wiring and plumbing to replace, and layouts that often need rethinking for how a family lives now.
Each page below explains how we run that kind of project. They are written for Edinburgh homes, and the way we work is the same here.
From first message to written quotation
Start with an email or the form below: the address area, the rooms involved and what you would like to change, plus any drawings and a handful of photos. We answer by email and book a follow-up call to go through it. If seeing the house would help, we arrange a visit after the call. You then receive a written quotation for the agreed work.
For major projects, allow at least four weeks from your first enquiry. Smaller or urgent work may be possible sooner; dates are agreed separately. Those weeks cover the call, the visit, the quotation, your decision and ordering the materials before anyone arrives on site. Something that cannot wait that long? Mention it on the call and we can discuss whether the work fits our service and availability.
How Sweet Homes works sets out each step and who is responsible for what.
Building warrants
Structural or layout changes, such as turning a loft or garage into a room or opening up a load-bearing wall, usually need a building warrant. We raise it at the start, and nothing is built until the warrant is in place. In Bridge of Allan and Dunblane it is issued by Stirling Council.
Your architect, structural engineer and warrant professional prepare the design and the application where the job needs them. We remain the contractor and price the work their drawings describe.
For the detail, read our plain guide to building warrants. The building regulations apply in the same way across Scotland.
One firm for the materials and the work
Whatever the size of the job, we buy the materials and we fit them. There is no labour-only or fit-only option. If a tap leaks or a worktop lifts, there is no argument about whether the product or the fitting is at fault, because both are ours. Already picked a suite, tiles or appliances? Send us the product codes; we check availability and suitability before confirming the products in the quotation.
Sweet Homes belongs to Edinburgh Trusted Trader and the Federation of Master Builders, and our workmanship warranty and aftercare covers every job.
Renovation reviews
What two clients wrote about their kitchen and bathroom.
We required a complete renovation in the kitchen and bathroom including new flooring fitted throughout as well as the hallway. We had several companies come round and they moaned about removing the cast iron bathtub and the water tank saying they were too heavy and difficult to remove. Brunon and his team tackled all the heavy lifting parts of the job in a remarkably short time and then worked diligently in ensuring all the finishings were correct leaving us with a brand new home that was on time and on budget. I highly recommend him and his team. These guys work very hard, they just get on with the job.

Questions from homeowners around Stirling
The answers below are the same ones we give on the first call.
Do you cover Stirling and the surrounding villages?
Not at the moment. In the Stirling area we take on renovation work in Bridge of Allan and Dunblane only.
How soon can the work start?
For major projects, allow at least four weeks from your first enquiry. Smaller or urgent work may be possible sooner; dates are agreed separately. That time is needed for the call, the visit, the quotation, your decision and ordering materials. If part of the problem is urgent, tell us on the call and we can discuss whether the work fits our service and availability.
Do I need a building warrant?
Usually, if the job converts a loft or garage or opens up a load-bearing wall. We tell you at the start, and building waits until Stirling Council has issued the warrant.
Will you fit a kitchen or bathroom we have already bought?
No. We buy and fit everything we install, on every job. If you have already chosen the products, send the product codes and we will check availability and suitability before confirming the products in the quotation.
How much will it cost?
You get a written quotation after the call and the visit, priced on the measured house and the specification you choose. Our renovation cost guide gives indicative bands for planning, written for Edinburgh homes.
Is a listed or conservation-area home a problem?
No, but it adds steps. Parts of Bridge of Allan and Dunblane are conservation areas, and a listed building or a change in a conservation area can need consent from Stirling Council as well as a building warrant. We flag approval questions early. Your professional team confirms the requirements with the council, and work requiring consent waits until it is in place.
